Catnip, a psychoactive drug for cats, induces euphoria and calmness in felines by stimulating sensory neurons through nepetalactone. The chemical binds to receptors in the cat's nose, altering brain activity and triggering an intense reaction. While not all cats are susceptible, those affected exhibit consistent behaviors when exposed to catnip. Interestingly, humans have also used catnip historically for various purposes, including as a mosquito repellent more potent than DEET.
