Camomile?

[Gadje]

Help, my cat got a hold of a celestial seasonings sleepy time tea bag. He ripped it open and ate some of it (Not much, just like a pinch). Now he's acting real crazy and I just read that camomile is poisonous to cats. Does anyone know how much it takes to hurt them?

Okay, I might have freaked out without all of the information. I found one site that said chamomile was toxic to cats. But, I have since found several others that say otherwise and have even found a couple of holistic pet product stores that sell chamomile extract to sooth the cat's nerves.

Sorry for the false alarm.

Chamomile is fine for cats. In fact, if your kitty ever has a cold or the sniffles you can make a chamomile bath and sit in the bathroom with her and let it get steamy to soothe her sniffles or cough.
