There is no more potent catnip anywhere! Our catnip is legendary. Here's why. Virtually all commercially produced catnip is harvested with machines that mulch up stalks and leaves. Much is never grown to flower and most is grown in the style of alfalfa. The reasons for this are cost, cost, cost. Our catnip is grown on a certified organic farm on Sauvie Island (Oregon) under gentle breezes. Not only did the USDA inspector say it was the best topsoil in the country but each plant gets plenty of room to spread and full exposure to sun and wind. They are hand weeded weekly and receive great care as they grow lush thick leaves and long pungent flowers. When we see the flowers have reached their peak energy and maximum oils each plant is hand cut and sun dried. They are carefully gathered and each leaf and flower is hand picked off the stalks and put in bins to be sealed and stored at ideal humidity. Our catnip costs more to produce than what most catnip retails for... but then we think most catnip is less interesting than a spearmint gum wrapper to most cats. Catnip works by the airbone oils (scent) reaching the receptors in your cat's nose. We know of no other dedicated whole catnip producer and nothing else is even close. Kitty Hooch really is white lightning next to the stale beer of commercial catnip.
Kitty Hooch loose catnip comes in a food grade container to keep it fresh. It can go directly into the freezer for several years of storage. You will note we spent the money on the catnip, not the packaging and marketing gimmicks. Loose Kitty Hooch is what we call "straight shots". If you want to replace catnip in our beds, scratching furniture or toys please see those items for refill pouches. Our loose catnip is the acid test for cats responding to catnip. See our guarantee.
Loose catnip is unavailable until harvest this summer. Stay tuned for alternate raw catnip products under development!

Here's a treat for the finicky cat. This is made from whole chicken thighs that are marinaded 24 hours in a seasoned brine then slow cooked over a mesquite grill. The chicken is then stripped off the bone and chopped up kitty bite size. Then we slow jerk it and vacuum seal it with bits of catnip flower for that extra appeal. They don't intoxicate so much as entice. Cats know quality and this is gormet. This is popular especially if your cat craves people food. We have seen roughly 90% of cats like this. Unlike our toys we cannot gaurantee this product. As we all know there is no accounting for a cats mood with food.
Each packet is 1.5 oz. There should not be a problem with spoiling as it's jerked and vacuum sealed but there are instructions on the package for optimum freshness. Keeps up to 2 years in the freezer.

Scratch control that's permanent, odor control and stain remover... Have we lost our mind? Let's start at the top. When your cat scratches you will notice the first thing they do is sniff, then scratch. That's why chain stores sell bitter apple. Spray it on and your cat is supposed to be annoyed and go somewhere else. Unfortunately the best case scenario means you have to spray that spot every day as long as you have cats and the worst case scenario is your cat bats the bottle around like it was catnip. That's what one customer said. So what to do? Let's start with a little known fact that seems forehead slapping obvious in retrospect...
When cats scratch their claws leave oils... It's scent marking, like when they rub their face on something. One has to wonder if the companies making bitter apple know this or are just using a recipe from an old angry person who wanted to get back at the cats and had a lot of apples laying around? Cat's are scratching a message, "my scent needs to be stronger" or "I live here too". We used an enzyme cleaner to digest the organic material. You may even have some in your closet, but many people have never heard of it. When we opened our store in Jantzen Beach we realized it was silly not to sell it. That's when we read the label on what we bought in the chain store. Sure it had stopped them scratching the woodwork and leather, but it discolored them. The chain store product also said to soak the area, let it dry for 2 weeks and see if it worked. That's when we found a product only sold in concentrate we could buy industrial size that met our standards!
Scratch No more is organic, non toxic and safe on leather, wood, carpet and skin. It has no perfumes and almost no scent of it's own. It kills odors 3 ways including bacteria and is guaranteed to remove skunk scent in seconds or your money back. They even offered to send me a vial of skunk scent... Your cat will sniff the message "This isn't where I scratch". We've also rescued stinky shoes, beverage stains and more. Urine needs to be wetted a little longer because it forms crystals when it dries. The liquid solution must come in physical contact with wherever the problem has soaked into, which in the worst case takes about 20 minutes.
We have been selling this with an odor removal guarantee and our Door Hangers and Ramps with a scratch guarantee. If you buy this and one of our under $100 scratchers (that last for years) we guarantee it will change your cat's behavior or your money back on both. We sold over 100 bottles in a week and a half of introduction and dozens of scratchers and have not had one complaint! Contains 8 Fl Oz

Kitty Hooch cat scratching furniture is made with the highest quality matierals
and is the only cat furniture that comes with a wear warranty! Every piece we make is either refillable or can be made refillable. If it is not refillable it has a finger of catnip rolled up in it on at least one scratching surface for several months of training. Here is where years of experience in craftsmanship pay off. The carpeting is high grade carpet remnants. Mass produced commercial cat furniture uses Low grade "apartment" carpet they buy by the roll. You can literraly grab carpet and pull it out. It was never made to endure stress and will be shredded in a few months. Low end commercial posts tend to use plastic post caps and wire brads from a nail gun. That can make posts very fragile. We use lathe cut cedar plugs in the top and bottom of the posts and hot glue and grabber screws to hold them in. Larger commerical cat furniture tends to be built with heavier lumber then house framing, takes four men and a boy to move and has lag bolt fastening. Over time the stress cats put on the post jumping on it causes the post to get wobbly. Our assembly hardware is all machine thread into embedded metal parts so these posts can be taken apart and put together every week if you like. They won't loosen up Kitty Hooch is always about the very best. There are options for all our furniture including sisal and refillable posts. Most importantly, your cat will love their new furniture.
If you have a cat scratching where it shouldn't remember that their claws leave a bit of oil that marks their territory. You need to remove this scent with an enzymatic cleaner.
Please note that we are getting ready to add a whole bunch of new furniture items as soon as we finish catalogging their weight and updating our database. Shipping will be more, but we want to be sure we charge you no more than the real costs. You can preview a PDF catalog of new items here. If you would like to purchase one of these new items now please feel free to contact us for shipping costs. You may also like to take a look at a custom ceiling mounted walkway we just completed.

The Door Hanger is a great little value item. It's made with our high quality carpet remnants that last and last, it has a finger of our great catnip inside and it can take on multiple roles. All at a cost that is hard to beat. The Door Hanger can be hung from a door with it's soft attached nylon rope. It can be leaned against an item of furniture that is being attacked. It can also be laid flat too. These are just great general purpose mobile scratchers.

Our Sisal door hanger is a popular modern classic. For over a year we would not produce one because of our concerns about the sisal scratching doors up. Then we got the idea to add two little carpeted bumpers on the back. Finally we hit on the ultimate ideas to embed the sisal into the board vertically instead of wrapping it horizontally and to make it refillable with a door and brass hardware. This is more attractive to people and cats than the regular door hanger. Best of all if your cat likes Kitty Hooch you know they will be scratching this. If you're unsure then try a toy to see their reaction, but we do gaurantee they will use our refillable stock furniture items (since they would be like new on return) and like all our furniture this comes with a 6 month wear warrantee.

The Kitty Hooch Spring Bird is a combination of several things carefully constructed for your cat's fun. The physics involved with anchoring this mean it is forced to deal with more stress than if you held it in your hand. While not indestructible it is still robust. It consists of a dowel with a "+" notch in the end to compress when put into the recieving hole which is drilled in two steps, a short entry and narrower seat. It has a spring and lanyard to attach the included bird, so birds can be replaced. Inside the protective cover is a length of the plastic we use for wands giving it a compound motion as the spring is kept light for flex and safety.
These come with 6 inch or 12 inch dowels. The shorter are for posts and the longer are for ramps. If you are ordering this without a post please specify the length in the comment. The Spring Bird can be used with any post that has a regular termination (no top shelf) and any ramp. It can also be mounted in custom orders as specified.

Our regular scratching post looks a lot like what you might find in a chain store, except it does look nicer. Why is that? Well first of all we take the standard 16 inch post design and use the innovative split bottom to make it easy to pack in small boxes. Another interesting thing you will see with our posts is that they are full wrap tops with no plastic. This produces a much more attractive post for your home.
From there it is much different starting with high quality carpet remnants that wear for years and cedar plugs top and bottom. I tripped over a commercial post once and it never stood up again. You have to try to destroy this post! Cat furniture should be designed to hold up to the stress of real life. This post can also be accessorized with the new Sping Bird accessory.

Our Sisal Post starts out like our regular 16 inch post, but then it gets some special treatment. We wind nearly 50 feet of 3/8 inch sisal rope by hand hot glueing it every step of the way. If you look carefully at the picture you can see the lump where the finger of catnip is. Also we do a full wrap like our carpeted posts, but this time we continue the sisal all the way to the hole for the Spring Bird. These posts are good looking, long lasting and they pack a punch with our good catnip. If your cat likes sisal they will love this.

Shown with optional Spring Bird
The tall post is very much like the regular one, except it's taller. That turns out to make a difference. The typical post available in chain stores is 16 inches. We went ahead and duplicated that and then realized that cats were always in an awkward position arching way down trying to stretch when they scratch. So the tall post is 19 inches and the base is larger to prevent tipping. Cats really like the difference. Also the Spring Bird accessory is a fun option that can be added at any time as all posts are now drilled for them.

The Spring Bird accessory shown above with the Ramp is optional
Our Sisal Ramp is a master stroke of genius for a lot of cat owners who have been settling for less than what they and their cats deserve. This was frankly inspired by the cardboard units sold in chain stores along with refill units. If you had the choice between a nice looking piece of furniture with a long life and a cheesey piece of cardboard you had to clean up after all the time, and both were the same price, which would you choose? The irony here is that we have encountered customers spending as much as 3 times as much the first year for the cardboard! The important thing to remember is that while cheap carpet is poorly backed and will only last a few months, carpet the retails for $20-$25 a yard and up takes years for a cat to destroy. We have one over 2 years old just beginning to show wear. Our customer surveys indicated that in rare cases people needed to buy a new $10 refill for the cardboard unit only every 3 months. On the other side was someone buying one twice a month. The vast majority were looking at once a month. Refills are optional with our ramp but if you have dogs eating cat toys this is how you can give your cat some nip. If you want optimum effect we recommend replacing the catnip pouch once every 4-6 months. So for the cardboard unit year two is about $5 less than year one. For ours year two is 0%-19% of year one.
We estimate the average person will save $50 the first year and $110 the second. That is $15 in refills with ours. In every scenario ours costs less to own... and you have to admit, ours is 100 times better looking than cardboard! Have a look at the optional Spring Bird for even more fun.

Sure you'd like to grow catnip. It can be grown indoors or out. Catnip grown from seeds tends to attract less attention than transplanted nip because handling it releases oils.
We have seeds for catnip (from our plants) and Catgrass. We also have starter pots (on the right) with a terra cotta pot we've decorated, a bag of organic soil and the seeds. Each packet of catnip seeds contains about 200 seeds, easily enough to grow multiple plants in several planters. All seeds and starter packs come with instructions on how to grow it. It's important to be aware that indoor cats need to eat greens. Have fun!
1 pack of seeds for 3.00 -
1 planter kit for 0.00
