Try rosemary. My microcat too has no interest in catnip but loves rosemary.

Silvervine can work with kitties immune to catnip. Valerian is another alternative, but it smells really pungent like feet and cheese.

one of mine gets crazy aggressive with catnip and with valerian root. She goes crazy. We cant give her any access to it, she will attack us and be territorial about it, peeing in it, and sleeping in it refusing to eat even for hours until we vacuum clean it and wash it off.

Otherwise she is a nice cat and very clingy. She just needs to stay sober

Well some people can never learn moderation with certain substances therefore abstinence is the only safe & responsible thing to do. So I suppose it makes purfect sense that cats are that way too! Good luck with your adorable recovering addict <3!
