The Black Cat Apothecary

The Black Cat Apothecary, is an organic range of cat friendly botanicals created by me, Dr Jo Lewis MRCVS, The Cat Vet. I'm an international cat expert vet and author and I've helped tens of thousands of cats and their humans live their best life together.

One of the best ways to keep cats happy and healthy is by respecting their senses, especially when it comes to their sensory superpower, their sense of smell! I'm keen to share all the amazing ways that a range of sensational plants can help with that.

Whether it's my cat attracting aromatic botanicals or the delectable blades of edible greenery that many cats seek out, you can be sure that they've been expertly sourced and blended to enthral, entertain and enrich their life.

"My collection of cat friendly botanicals is the purrfect fusion of nature & science".

Introducing Potion No. 9

Potion No.9 was formulated by me, cat expert vet & author, Dr Jo Lewis MRCVS. It's a unique fusion of nature & science - a potent blend of three sensational aromatic botanicals that I know cats just LOVE!

As a feline vet for over two decades I know how much difference the little things can make to our cats' lives. You may have already heard about and offered catnip to your cats, but you may not know of some of the lesser known, more exotic botanicals that have a role to play in helping cats lives a more enriched life - especially in cats that don't carry the gene that is needed to respond to catnip.

From the moment you open the tin, you'll know that Black Cat Apothecary 'Potion No. 9' is nothing like all the boring old, faded 'stem & leaf' catnip that abounds on pet store shelves. This is not just catnip... this is organic, pesticide-free, cat-friendly, supercharged & hand-blended in the UK, catnip.
