How is it made?

To make our natural Silvervine Powder, we finely grind up the dried gall fruits of an ivy like plant called the Actinindia Polygama that is native to the mountains of Eastern Asia. The leaves are plucked from this very same plant.  Although relatively unknown in Northern America, the silver vine plant is more popularly used in Japan and China than traditional catnip among cat owners! There is a saying about Silvervine in Japan that goes- ““neko ni matatabi, joro ni koban” which translates to ” Silvervine is to cats as money is to a prostitute.” Simply put, cats LOVE Silvervine!
