What does it do and how does it work?
These are the gall fruits of an ivy like plant called the Actinindia Polygama that is native to the mountains of Eastern Asia. Although relatively unknown in Northern America, the silver vine plant is more popularly used in Japan and China than traditional catnip among cat owners! It contains two naturally occurring oils that cats find irresistible similar how they naturally love catnip.
Many cats react to Silvervine (the vine of the Silvervine plant) even if they show little interest to catnip. A 2017 scientific study found 70% of cats had a reaction to catnip, however over 80% of cats had a reaction to silvervine, with many cats enjoying both!
Typical behaviors of cats on silvervine include rolling, chin and cheek rubbing, meowing, drooling and licking. Some cats will become kitten-like playing with toys and catching a case of the zoomies. Others will be more relaxed and will chill out in a dreamlike state.
Only the gall fruit contains sufficient amounts of the scent based attractants to trigger the euphoric reaction in cats. The other dried fruits from the plant (a more oblong shape) have shown to cause much less of a reaction.
What’s in the bag?
Each bag contains approximately 15 whole dried fruits weighing ~2 oz in total. The fruits are fully dried and a very hard texture. It is safe for cats to consume bits of the fruit but they should be used as a supervised playtime toy only. When not being enjoyed, store in a sealed bag to maintain the freshness. Each fruit can be played with many times until it eventually disappears under the couch, bed, or other furniture!

Both my cats love them. One will tap at the bag to get me to open it or dig it out of the trash. However… the other cat is a trouble maker and he attempts to eat these. I had to dig a shard out of his mouth, but I’m pretty sure he managed to eat a small piece. They are hard like walnuts, so I’m a bit worried. If you have a chill cat that doesn’t try to eat everything, you should be fine. They definitely love it much more than catnip.

I have 3 cats and not one of them has shown any interest in either the Silvervine or the Valerian powder. Two of them are senior cats so they may have a diminished sense of smell, but they still like regular catnip. My biggest disappointment is that I can’t get a response from customer service.

These are great for the kitties to bat around. I find them all over the house…and in my shoes.
I will opt for the bigger ones next time though.
