Is spearmint a plant that is considered safe for cats to be in contact and/or ingest?
I'm going to put some spearmint plants on my garden. Is spearmint safe for my cat?
I do not think there is harm/toxins in spearmint. It may be too strong tasting for a cat. Plant some edible greens and catnip to one side of the garden just for your cat ---- they appreciate it!
Reply:I don't think your cats will even bother it. They prefer catnip, and although they are similar, cats seem to smell the difference
Reply:Spearmint is completely safe.
The cat can eat it, roll in it, and generally have a good time.
Just like catnip, some cats will love it, some won't.
Reply:They shouldn't even bother it. While spearmint and wintergreen and peppermint are all in the same mint family as catnip, cats don't usualy get too interested in those. If they do happen to eat it, it won't hurt them, these are plants we use in tea and as herbs. PROVIDED the plants are not sprayed with pesticides, that is. The pesticides would hurt the cat.
Reply:Spearmint plants ARE safe for cats to be around should they decide to take a nibble or two, so you shouldn't have any worry at all.
If you like, or have more plants in question. I would suggest the source link I've included! Enjoy!
Reply:they don't like it. should not be a problem.
