My problem is Muddy can't resist fresh catnip, even when the shoots have
barely made it above ground level, it's real hard on the catnip plant.
When he's not eating it to within an inch of its life he sleeps on it ;-)

Normally, they don't bother the plant until it becomes damages in some way

in the normal course of their activities. Once damaged, it can be all
over for the plant.
