What are the Effects and Benefits of Silvervine Gall Fruit for Cats?
Encourages olfactory enrichment — indoor cats spend a lot of time at home. Olfactory enrichment, such as Silvervine Gall Fruit, produces a euphoric effect like catnip. The effects are immediate and only last for about 30 minutes. Typically, most cats will rub their face on it, chew, lick it, or even bunny-kick it.
Elicits pleasure in cats – According to Harvard University research, one of the active ingredients in the silver vine, nepetalactol, activates the reward and pleasure centre in the feline’s brains.
Promotes dental health care – If your cat doesn’t like brushing their teeth, a gall fruit can help keep their teeth cleaner by removing tartar during the chewing action. The Silver vine has a rough texture like bark, which is good at removing plaque and other bits of dirt. Most cats salivate, too, chewing on the fruit, which is also suitable for their teeth.
Stress reduction – Cats spending most of their time indoors are more susceptible to anxiety and stress, which can lead to behavioural issues. Stimulating your cat’s sense of enrichment and reducing boredom with Silver Vine or Cat nip can help with physical and behavioural ailments.
