Thank you for watching and tell a friend!
I am so happy you named one of the tigers Shere Khan
Why
@@jeremy-ws1rb It's the tiger from the jungle book
@@Nichtzukennen lmao 😂😂
Sher= Lion
Khan= Leader
In India
They should have named saber bagera
My take on this:
Most cats react to catnip in a calm, rub on it type of way...except Sabre. Sabre reacts as if it's meth and he's about to go on a rampage.
Sundari has a pretty intense reaction, too.
Rampaaaaaaaage!
CATNIP - not even once
I suppose individual results will vary like any other chemical compound depending on health, weight, ect. I mean some people who are drunk react violently while others either get sad or happy or just end falling asleep. Logically the same standard would apply to cats.
apharot Sabre acts like he's about to go on a rampage even when he's not on catnip.
Before catnip: "Behold! I am majestic and fearsome!"
After catnip: "HURRRRR DERP DERP DERP DERP"
lol
zibbity bibbity bop AWWWWWWWWW
zibbity bibbity bop: lol
zibbity bibbity bop nice copy and paste
lol XD
Lion before catnip: I am the king of all beast.
Lion after catnip: Why do i have a large paint brush on my butt?
😂😂
😊GRINS and GIGGLES😂
😅😂🤣
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao 🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
2:05 Nikita looks so done.
"Sometimes I can't believe I haven't gone mad living with him."
That's actually Sasha, it looks like. Nikita doesn't share her space well at all. She becomes stressed at just the sight of other big cats.
No, her name is Sasha.

So if I go into the jungle and I come across a tiger I can give him some catnip and we can be friends :D
great idea
I bet it'd love their meat with some spice
The tiger will enjoy his high and still eat you once the munchies hit...
Ha! That all depends. Some cats react by turning into puddles of lovable marshmallows while others react aggressively. But it's worth a shot I suppose :-)
Just sit around smoking catweed with Tony the tiger.
Nathan Freeman Probably
the fact that this video runs for 4:20 cannot be a coincidence.
420 what ya smokin?
Nice
Nice
2:07 her look on her face is priceless. seeing her husband act like a kitten instead of a king.
Lol yeh true
We didn't domesticate cats, we just made them small enough to not kill us.
Humans didn't "make" cats lmaooo smaller cats exist in the wild naturally 😂 where do people get this stuff from
@@fabiana7157 You're one of those idiots who believe corn, strawberries, apples, carrots etc. just existed like that in nature, aren't you? Cats are one of the least tampered with domesticated animals; they are nevertheless man-made by artificial selection.
@@soylentgreenb if you don't have any proofs just don't go and call people "idiots", if you're going to do that then at least provide any proofs, i can just say "i'm secretly the richest person in the world with over 1 trillion dollars", you can't really believe me without a proof can you?, that's the point!

Joseph was just DRUNK on that catnip. I love watching cat's and their reactions to things.
Its so fun and interesting to see how all the cats do the head roll thing regardless of race lmao
The word you're looking for is species. Race is a human construct only.

Big cats have such a mesmerizing mix of adorable and absolutely terrifying
Its called respect
It's just like humans. If you put a piece of cake in front of ten humans, some would eat it, and some would complain that there are GMO's in the cake.

I was chilling in the zoo and then I got high ...

XD
Great story 👍
I was gonna eat that cat nip too, until I got high
I thought I was the baddest cat in the land....but then I got high, then I got high, then I got high.
Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got hiiiiiigh
Tararatata
Thank you so much for supporting the cats.
3:38 Joseph you are drunk, go home.
Catnip sounds like a must if you’re ever stranded in the savanna 😂 it might save you.
The cats like a variety of spices. Some like Rosemary, some like cinnamon, some like thyme, some like basil, etc. They also like various smells like perfumes sprayed on bags, boxes, or sticks.
Damn I might carry catnip around as protection when in the woods. You never know in Montana there are big cats in the mountains... could save your life.
Just don't rub it on your body...
Lynne Perkins LMAO!
Lynne Perkins Probably not a proud epitaph. "Here lies a man cuddled to death by a mountain lion after an unfortunate catnip-accident".
+Fjordmonkey "here lies a man cuddled to death..." Ha ha, I couldn't stop laughing XD
Might need bear nip or moose nip. That could be fun if only they had their own special herbal vice.
Joseph turned sexual, the female got disgusted lol
Lol I noticed XD
4:05 Lion goes: "WHERE MAH DRUGS AT?"
Joseph is hilarious with way too much personality. Now on the last video he was too proud to rip that catnip bag to shreds like the other cats. Now on this video he is rolling around in it like a big overgrown kid. LMAO
Joseph has very definite moods and depending on his mood he will or will not participate in Enrichment. Funny thing is though, no matter what his mood he is always ready for vanilla ice cream.
Big Cat Rescue
I like french vanilla lol
Big Cat Rescue great minds, eh?
Big Cat Rescue Interesting that he really enjoys vanilla ice cream. It is said that house cats cannot taste sweet and now I wonder if it is same for big cats or not. Either way that's pretty amusing.
***** We had a cat that liked corn and lima beans but it could have been for the butter on them. She also would put her paw in any unattended drink, tip it over and try to lap it up quickly before you could stop her. She was a stinker...I miss her sass though.
WATCH THE VIDEO TO FIND OUT !!
is catnip weed for cats?
3LightningBolt That is basically what it is.
3LightningBolt
I doubt it, judging by their reactions, it may be more accurate to compare it to ecstasy.
twilightmarauder catnip is ecstasy for cats it always had been
HA! Take THAT, naysayers! :D Way to go Big Cat Rescue, that'll show 'em!
I love that huge paw over the catnip @ 1:51 😂
3:50 tigers snort like a boss.....
2:08... the loiness "I'm SOOOO high..."
"Science" don't give us that. You just wanted an excuse to give the cats catnip again XD
They looked like they enjoyed it.
I saw the first video and loved watching the big cats react to the catnip. They acted just like my Callie did whenever I gave her catnip. My other kitties liked it, but Callie went wild. At the end, she looked stoned. Lol! So I was surprised that some people thought that maybe the big kitties were reacting to the paper bags and not the catnip. The ways that cats and big cats play with paper bags is quite different than the way they react to catnip. But I'm glad you did this "scientific retest." 🐾🐾❤❤
3:37 I've forgotten how to lion
Don't worry, I think you're doing just fine
"You're not high from catnip until you're clawing the earth to keep from fallling off."
Drunk roar
I hate how some viewers who know nothing act like they know everything. Nice video proving them wrong :)
Part 1~ Joseph is the 'King of the Jungle'. He has to be dignified. Part 2~ "What the hell, let's party!" And so they did, and all went TOTALLY BONKERS! Who knew 'BIG CATS' could GIGGLE? MEEOOOOOW!
Apparently, they LOVE it, in majority !!! It's adorable to see them rub against it ! Caracals, Lions (maybe less than the others...), Lynx, Nebulas, Pumas, Servals, Tigers ! What beautifull representatives of the feline gente !
Joseph fell off the wagon

@Big Cat Rescue, when a big cat or small cat brushes it's cheeks up against its enclosure walls are they showing affection? Also I have y'all subscribed to and liked on FB
+Mustela Stellar All cats have scent glands by the sides of their nose and on their cheeks. They rub on things to mark their territory.
Big Cat Rescue, okay, thank you
+Big Cat Rescue TRY FRESH CATNIP PLANTS!!! THEY WILL LOVE THEM!!!
We often times do give the big cats fresh catnip.
catnip (also known as catwort) is a natural insect repellent, effective against fleas, ticks, mosquitoes and other pests. Plant it around your house as a natural barrier against pests (including cockroaches).
It also attracts cats. So, win.
I'll have to ask the Enrichment team. canyon is pretty shy. He does not always come out and play with his goodies until everyone leaves.
Big Cat Rescue introverted i guess haha
Maybe you should have pinned this comment at the top so people could see this 😅
1:55
>Then (last video)
Joseph: I am the king i shall not fall for such petty stuff
>Now
Joseph: WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP WHOOOP
Nikita: Really?
so if i ever end up against a big cat, i will just throw catnip at them :D freagging junkies
yep, they would love your meat with some spice...
+Bernard Strauss Lol😂😂😂😂😂Basically.
I fucking hate your profile pic
I wonder what happens if you actually do that
@@ChocolateChick1000 you fool,you fell victim to one of the classic blunders
Duh it was the catnip. How often does a big cat act like it's on ecstasy when given a paper bag?? ... Right onJospeh you came outta your shell!... or maybe that was a relapse. XD
Stephanie White ROFL!
that was def relapse
I mean
The science side of yt are the biggest jerks you can ever meet

Joseph didn't respond to catnip on the first video, because he's a king, he doesn't open his own goddamned paper bags
The music in this background just adds to how much you make large cats act like a kitty.

I love how you guys go out of your way just to do things like this for them. And how you try so many new things just to keep them happy and excited and have them always having fun. I only wish all animals in captivity could have owners like you guys and such a positive and exciting environment to live in.
Cheetahs are harder for private owners to get. That means there are fewer of them kept as private pets. That is a good thing because it means there are not very many suffering in tiny backyard cages.
lmao 0:53-0:55 it looks like Saber thought he saw something, realized it was just him tripping. shook his head. then commenced to tweek
Watching them roll around like my house cats makes me smile. 😀
The music is perfect! Sometimes my domestic kitty likes catnip, sometimes he doesn't. A lot of times he eats it first. Then acts goofy. He refused to watch the big cat videos today. Maybe his short kitty cat syndrome is kicking in.
These big kitties are definitely liking the catnip!! Too cute.
Anyone who has ever watched a house cat in ecstasy with cat nip, knows these cats are having the same reaction. Rolling around, grabbing at their own back feet, rubbing themselves on fences or whatever is available, swatting at each other before falling down and stretching and rolling some more.
Like a dog on fish guts, except slower and stoned looking.
This video made me so happy.
I'm not surprised you had some cats who didn't react; 25% (ish) of all (house)cats don't react to catnip. Your experiment seems to confirm this (72% of your cats liked catnip) My last kitten, Abby, didn't react to it at all. It's sad when they don't care for it, they're so adorable when they're rolling around, gnawing your hand...oh, that would be really scary with a big cat. Hehe. Keep up the good work, and let me know if I can donate a nickel bag or two!
It's interesting how it also links to us as humans, a small percentage of people cannot tolerate marijuana either making them sick or just having no effect
Nice science! Also it's nice to see Joseph react and enjoy himself.

Joseph the lion is saying "Gimme more! Not fair! I didn't get it the last time!"
Ohohohohoho....watching big kitties roll around the ground whilst high on catnip.......I have nothing better to do in my life
It's hard to remember they can be such vicious animals when you see them rolling around and being so adorable like that.
Here I am, at 3 AM in the morning, watching big cats get high
The lion (soory don´t know the name) at 0:41 seems to say "Are you kidding me?" LOL
Bri Novem Her name is Sasha.
GETTING GIANT CATS HIGH FOR SCIENCE :D
Giant cats..🤣🤣...hey you think if all humans were Shaq sized...could we domesticate lions for house pets?
It needs to be put on more playlists, more Facebook walls, etc.
3:37 Joseph looks like an old man struggling to wake up LOL
Pls help lol too much laughing
That one guy: "maybe they were reacting to the sunshine and not the catnip. Experiment failed, do it it properly."
Jassica Thant: Catnip is a mint, like basil, peppermint, etc., called Nepeta cataria. You can tell a mint by their stems, which aren't round, but four-sided, like a square. There is also catmint, a different Nepeta. Some cats react to both, but catnip is MUCH more powerful--that is, for those cats who respond to it. In domestic kitties, only about 70% do. Moreover, kittens don't respond at all until they're older. Response tends to "grow" as they get to be around 8 months old. If they aren't responding by one year old, they probably never will. Start giving your cat catnip when s/he's about seven months old, then once a week from then on until you see a response. All they need is about a teaspoon to get high, but I like to gather fresh from outside and throw down a huge pile of it. They eat it, roll in it, lick it, flop over, rub their backs all over in it, then run around the house for a while. Finally, they're all tuckered out and sleep. Good luck!
Saber's so freakin cute.
A big male lion rolling around in catnip is quality entertainment
Thank you for adding some laughter to my day, My regular ol house cat is no doubt addicted to the nip. He can sniff it out, No matter where I hide it. And has even learned how to open cabinets and retrieve his own nip of the day.
Thank you for watching!
They are totally high! 😂 But it seems to be the same with domestic cats, some like catnip and others don't, some like fresh over dried or visa versa. One of my cats totally ignores dry catnip but goes crazy for fresh leaves.
this is so cool to watch these great kings and queens of there respective "jungles" just go silly for a simple plant
Same with humans I guess🤣🤷♀️
Nikita - "I don't need a catnip, I'm fine! Luckily, this queen's got her yellow boomer ball, & I gotta go marking my territory. Haha!" [3:41]
This should be tested every Saturday from now on. Constant research is necessary. 😻😻😻
4 minutes 20 seconds long eh?
Oh, I see what they did there.

What is it?
doraluffy 420 blaze it.

It’s actually kind of strange to me that people wonder about the similarities of big cats and regular domesticated small cats. They are pretty much exactly the same, just smaller. Your domesticated cat still has every wild instinct and behavior a tiger or lion has. There is a reason they are called “big cats”, because it’s just that simple, they are merely just bigger cats. You basically just have tiny lions running around your house, lol.
Kristen Miller
Hi baby
You are beautiful
i would never be able to work in a place like this because it would take about 8 people to hold me back from petting one of the big cats when they rub their faces along the enclosure’s fence
They were like " I love you soo much" "give me more" "come pet me" lol funny seeing them go crazy!
Made the right choice of choosing la cha cha for the background music. Now i cant get it outta mah head.
I wish ancient humans knew about cat nip so we could probably have domesticated big cats
Lion: Where did you get the good stuff from fam? 0:42
My cat looks like he's drunk when I give him catnip
all of those people who thought that they only liked the bags, sorry you were wrong, LOVED THE VIDEO THOUGH!
if you bring catnip and meat at the same time, what would they do?
Eat it all up bc when you high your appetite is crazy fam
This is just a video about them being soooooooooo adorable!
Ha! My husband said "what could possibly go wrong?" Thank you for sharing!
I have never studied hyenas.
Big Cat Rescue I love your YT channel I'm gonna subscribe right now!
nikita is a big girl!! love that you guys keep these cats busy with things to do :-)
Dee Watson , Nikita lion is a very big girl.
I'm going to subscribe :D
I love that some of the big cats have names like Pharaoh, Joseph, And Shere Khan.
Me: Watching an old video about BIG cats.
Also me: Oh, that's Catman Chris!
Also me: Duh!
I wonder if you could smoke catnips
After being clean for three years, Joseph relapsed. Nikita is just about fed up with his addiction. She's going to leave him now.....
That was not Nikita with Joseph. He had a companion names Sasha, but she passed away a few years ago.
Big Cat Rescue oh thank you for the clarification. keep up the good work! :D
I must admit that I am glad people complained and questioned, as it inspired another cat np vids. I watch them over and over.
Thank you for watching!
the black panther playing with the cat nip really makes me wanna cuddle with it lol
I thought only male lions marked their territory by spraying.
Didn't know lionesses did the same...
All wild cats mark their territory by using their scent glands, peeing, and defecating regardless of gender. All big cat species are solitary animals with the exception to lions, and spraying is one of the most common ways of marking.
Rubywing4 I thought only males mark too lol
Big Cat Rescue oh.ok i never knew that all kind of big cats can mark there teritory and now i know that it doesnt matter what gender.
Who's idea was it to invent weed for cats lol?
DEREK Williams God/MotherNature.
Not an invention.
Lol true!!!
Lesson learned. When I go to a country that has Big cats. I'm bringing bags of catnip for my protection, also to see those cute big cats roll around.
Just bring catnip in its original packaging...
They needed an excuse to make a second video which we still appreciate
I really like these videos, but I wish they lowered the volume on the music a bit. It’s quite distracting and I want to hear the noises of the animals.
Alex the tiger huh....shouldn't it be a lion though?....
+rocket queen czcams.com/video/mZeyKatySGg/video.html
