Most cats I've had will sniff the nip, roll a bit, then go "ehhh boring" basically.
Maybe we've only ever had weak nip!
Fresher is for sure better. I grew some in my garden.
Oh! Also, don't grow it in your garden, it took over and is extremely hard to control, do it in a raised bed or a potted plant lol.
Those cats were all mortal enemies until they were brought together by catnip.
It's like an opium den or trap house for cats
