I give mine catnip just occasionally. I have never had any qualms about giving it to a youngster, but it probably depends entirely on the cat. We had one cat who absolutely hated catnip! He was a big sweet baby who had a lot of energy. One day, I gave him catnip and it made him so grumpy! All he did was glare and grumble at me! LOL After that, if he saw me giving it to the other cats, he would run. I guess he didn't like the high it gave him. Maybe your kitty didn't either.
