Matatabi Silvervine Dental Stick for Cats
Matatabi Silvervine Dental Sticks for Cats
100% Natural Silvervine (Matatabi) | 6 Sticks per Pack | No Preservatives or Additives | Non-Addictive
A natural cat chew stick harvested from the Silvervine plant (Matatabi) - native to the mountainous jungles of East Asia. Unlike traditional catnip which has one cat attractant, Matatabi has two, making it twice as potent and irresistible to cats.
As they chew, the stick naturally scrapes plaque and tartar from teeth.
Benefits
- Natural dental cleaning - chewing scrapes away plaque and tartar build-up from tooth surfaces
- Relieves stress & anxiety - when smelled, acts as a stimulant; when eaten, acts as a calming sedative
- Supports digestion - acts as a carminative, helping to relieve constipation, flatulence, and intestinal inflammation
- 2x more potent than regular catnip - contains two cat attractants vs catnip's one
- Non-addictive & non-toxic - the natural response wears off in ~30 minutes; safe even if swallowed
- No preservatives, additives, or artificial ingredients
When to Use
- Daily dental maintenance - let your cat chew to naturally clean teeth
- Before stressful events - vet visits, car travel, or moving to a new environment
- Shelter and rescue cats - helps with acclimation to new surroundings
- Enrichment and play - stimulates natural chewing and hunting instincts
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Matatabi addictive? No - research shows it is not addictive. The response typically lasts around 30 minutes and then wears off naturally.
Is it safe if my cat swallows pieces? Yes - Matatabi is non-toxic and safe to ingest. Always supervise during chewing sessions.
How is it different from regular catnip? Regular catnip contains one cat attractant (nepetalactone). Matatabi contains two (actinidine and dihydronepetalactone), making it effective on cats that don't respond to regular catnip.
How often can I give it? A few times per week is ideal for dental benefits. Daily use is safe also.
