Cat's Meow Catmint (Nepeta faassenii 'Cat's Meow')

Cat's Meow Catmint (Nepeta faassenii 'Cat's Meow') is a sun-loving perennial grown for its tidy, upright habit and its long season of lavender-blue flowers that bring reliable color to borders and foundation plantings. It blooms heavily from late spring into summer, and with a quick trim after the first flush, it often reblooms and keeps the garden looking fresh well into the warm season. Compared with older catmint types that can sprawl or flop, Cat's Meow stays more vertical and compact, making it easier to design with and easier to keep looking clean. With its steady bloom, aromatic foliage, and strong garden structure, Cat's Meow Catmint makes an excellent focal point along paths and at the front of beds where consistent color matters.

Distinctive Features

The standout feature is the upright, non-flopping habit, which keeps flower spikes held neatly above the foliage and maintains a finished look without constant staking or correction. Leaves are gray-green, lightly fuzzy, and aromatic, adding soft texture even when the plant is between bloom cycles. The flower color is a clear lavender-blue that pairs easily with warm-toned perennials and contrasts beautifully with yellow, white, and pink blooms. It is also a dependable pollinator plant, drawing bees and other beneficial insects throughout its bloom period.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Full sun is best; tolerates light shade but may flower less.
  • Soil: Well-drained soil; performs best in average to lean soils and does not like wet feet.
  • Water: Moderate; water regularly during establishment, then water during extended dry spells.
  • USDA Hardiness Zones: 3 to 8.
  • Habit: Compact, upright perennial with dense flower spikes.
  • Mature Size: About 16 to 20 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use as a reliable blue accent where its upright habit keeps beds looking neat and intentional.
  • Border Edging: Creates a clean, repeatable line along walks, patios, and perennial borders.
  • Foundation Planting: Adds long-blooming color and soft texture without looking messy or overgrown.
  • Pollinator Plantings: Supports bees and beneficial insects during a long flowering season.
  • Companion Planting: Pairs well with roses, salvias, echinacea, rudbeckia, and ornamental grasses for a balanced, colorful look.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Water consistently the first season; after that, water during prolonged drought.
  • Shearing: Trim back after the first heavy bloom to encourage fresh growth and rebloom.
  • Soil Management: Avoid overly rich or constantly wet soils, which can reduce performance.
  • Fertilizing: Usually not needed; a light spring feeding is enough in poor soils.
  • Spacing: Provide airflow to help foliage stay clean in humid weather.
  • Dividing: Divide every few years if clumps become woody or less vigorous.

Why Choose Cat's Meow Catmint?

  • Non-Flopping Habit: Upright growth keeps flower spikes neat and maintains a clean border edge.
  • Long Bloom Season: Heavy late spring bloom with strong potential for repeat flowering after shearing.
  • Aromatic Foliage: Soft, gray-green leaves add texture and a polished look between bloom cycles.
  • Pollinator Support: Flowers attract bees and other beneficial insects through the season.
  • Strong Focal Point Value: Delivers dependable blue color and tidy structure where the eye naturally lands.

If you want a catmint that stays neat, blooms for a long season, and supports pollinators, Cat's Meow Catmint adds focal point color and reliable structure in sunny, well-drained beds.

Flavor Name: REAL Bacon, Size: Small
This chew toy is great for aggressive chewers—it’s very durable and holds up much longer than most other toys we’ve tried. The ring shape makes it easy for dogs to grip and carry, and my dog was immediately interested in it, likely because of the real bacon flavor. It’s also a nice bonus that it’s made in the USA and doesn’t have a strong smell for humans. That said, it is very hard, so I’d recommend keeping an eye on your dog while they’re using it, especially if they’re an intense chewer. Over time, it does wear down and needs to be replaced once the edges get rough. Overall: a long-lasting, high-quality chew that keeps dogs occupied—just be mindful of the hardness and monitor for wear.

Long lasting chew toy!
Flavor Name: REAL Bacon, Size: Large, Flavor Name: REAL Bacon, Size: Large
All I can say is wow! I have a Basset Hound mix who will be in the puppy stage for another year, and as we all know, that means dealing with teething issues. Seeing the photo of this product when it was new makes it obvious what he’s done to it. He’s still at it, chewing like mad. Made for medium to large dogs, he happily totes it around everywhere, and I’m always picking it up so I don’t trip over it. The inner cup can hold peanut butter as a special treat for your pet, and I give him some when he’s feeling a bit bored. It doesn’t last long, but he’ll keep chewing on it for a while afterward. For me, the value is worth the price if it keeps his teeth off my furniture—pet owners know exactly what I mean.

All 3 Dogs Want The Benebone Ring Now
Flavor Name: REAL Bacon, Size: Large
Rescued an Old English Sheepdog and after about 2 weeks, he started chewing things in the house. We knew he enjoyed chewing sticks in the backyard, but chewing things in the house was a no go. Purchased this Benebone Ring (bacon) hoping it would help to curb some of the issues we were having. I am happy to report that so far, after 3-4 weeks of him having the Benebone Ring, he has not chewed a single thing inside the house. He loves this ring and carries it in and out during the day so that he has it with him. The only problem we ran into was our other 2 dogs ALSO wanted the Benebone Ring. While they are not big chewers, suddenly this toy became the must have item in the house. So of course, we had to get more. Highly recommend this chew toy as it is not only durable, it appears to be highly desirable. Keep in mind however that this toy is heavy. So when your dog decides to drop it on your hardwood floors, you WILL hear it in every room in the house!!

My babies love their Benebones!
Flavor Name: REAL Bacon, Size: Large, Flavor Name: REAL Bacon, Size: Large
My one-year old pittie is 60lbs and has severe allergies to EVERYTHING, she's on medicated food and all the crazy things, and so I was trying to find something that wouldn't mess up her regimen by her ingesting it. This is PERFECT. She loves her medium sized Benebone! She carries it everywhere haha. I have three other big dogs, and got the largest one for my 110lb German Shepherd and she also loves it. I keep an eye on the edges and sand them down if I find anything sharp. These things are TOUGH. My pitbull can eat a massive bully stick in less than ten minutes, and she's barely made a dent in this thing! My GSD is a little more delicate and likes to savor and enjoy her toys, so hers isn't progressing as fast. She eats Yak Chews in around 30 minutes (and those things are like concrete!) I think these will easily last a month, possibly more, and for the price you can't beat it. The value is insane. I spend maybe 200$ a month on rawhide alternatives and bully sticks and yak chews for them, and these 14$ things last infinitely longer. BTW these things hurt like a mother trucker when you step on them, so keep an eye on where they are haha they're big and heavy!
