How do cats feel when they play with catnip?




I mean, in translation to what humans would feel ,what do they feel? Tired? Lazy? STONED? High?

Whenever my cat smells it, he gets really hyper and likes to smell everything thinking it’s catnip.
When he eats it, he lazes around and falls asleep in my bed.
No chemicals in weed burndi, just pure amazing-ness. lol :)

My cat knows better but when he’s flying through the house, he stops to sharpen his claws on my new sofa. I pick him up and take him to his post and gently take his paws and extract his claws and make them scratch the post. then I pet him lovingly and tell him what a good kitty he is. Well why isn’t this working? He knows what he’s doing is wrong because when I hear him clawing and I walk over to him he takes off and hides and won’t let me catch him. He’s not an evil cat like some i’ve seen that you can actually imagine them laughing as their doing this. He’s a very, very affectionate cat and that’s the only bad thing he does! I’ve even tried putting catnip on the post and he just lays their and sniffs it! Any good tips???

I have a kitten that is three months old, and two other cats, age 6 and 2. The two oldest love a little bit of catnip, but I don’t know if it is safe to give a kitten. Also, what is the best age to have the kitten neutered? My other cats were already fixed when I adopted them. Any advice would be great. Thanks!
