Garden Sage

Salvia officinalis

✓ MEOW APPROVED (SAFE)

The Verdict 🐾

After rigorous investigation involving much sniffing and a few questionable taste tests, I, Dr. Mittens, hereby declare Garden Sage to be as safe as a sunbeam on a lazy afternoon. Yes, my esteemed human subjects, you can breathe easy! This herb is non-toxic to our feline kind, and I wholeheartedly approve. Now, can we talk about the fact that you humans need to stop questioning my culinary choices? Sage is delightful!

The Taste Test

Now, why on earth would a sophisticated feline such as myself be tempted to munch on Garden Sage? For one, it has a delightful texture that could easily be mistaken for a wiggly toy. Not to mention, its earthy aroma wafts through the air like a siren's call, beckoning me closer. The humans might think it’s just a boring green plant, but to us cats, it’s an enticing array of possibilities—perhaps a miniature jungle ripe for exploration!

The Puke Factor

Should a curious cat find themselves indulging in too much Garden Sage, the results could be amusingly dramatic. Expect nothing less than a rapid expulsion of lunch—a delightful spectacle, if I do say so myself. The aftermath may include a few bewildered looks, a bit of a bellyache, and the sudden realization that perhaps one should have stuck to the kibble. Remember, my dear feline friends, moderation is key—even in the pursuit of culinary adventure!

Human Instructions

To all my human servants out there, consider yourselves fortunate! Garden Sage is a green delight that can remain in your abode. Feel free to use it in your culinary concoctions, but do keep it out of my reach unless you want to witness my illustrious taste-testing techniques. Just remember, I’m the true connoisseur here!
