The discussion on whether giving catnip is ethical has been an ongoing one on social media and other websites.

I asked the nonprofit people for the ethical treatment of animals where they stand on this issue.
Catnip is a bizarre phenomenon for a few reasons. It’s the only recreational drug we routinely give to animals, and though it basically makes them freak out — rolling on the ground, drooling, and mashing their face into wherever the catnip was sprinkled — it has essentially no effect on us.

Tories to ban Catnip.
A letter sent to Government, politicians have been trying for years to ban Catnip.
Dear david cameron,
There are many reasons why the psychoactive substance bill is flawed, but the fact that it would defacto ban the selling of catnip, bought by many cat owners for recreational use by cats, is the last straw. As catnip can be smoked by humans and is reported as having a calming effect, it would fall under this legislation and be banned from being sold on the high street. Does this mean it would be regulated and our cats would need vet prescriptions for it? if so will government cover the cost so catnip is available to all cat owners? would people be still be allowed to grow catnip in their gardens or will they now face police raids if they do? has the world gone mad?.
