Goodness Richard, have you no cupboards with doors? That Cosmic Catnip is powerful stuff. I keep ours in a cupboard that is paw proof! Of course when I want something else out of that cupboard, I have to move quick! If not paws fly out of nowhere, making a grab for the Cosmic Catnip bag. (I put it in a plastic container finally. It helps keep them from sniffing it before I get the cupboard door open.)
