Hey there! So, "catmint" is a type of plant that has a really strong smell and cats just love it! When cats come across catmint, they react to it in a really funny way, rolling around and acting kind of crazy. It's like catnip for them!

Catmint also refers to the specific plant in the mint family that has pretty flowers and a nice smell. It's often used in gardens because it attracts butterflies and bees, and it's also used in making herbal teas or for medicinal purposes.

So, in simple terms, catmint is a plant that cats go crazy for and it also has pretty flowers and a nice smell that attracts insects. It's kind of like a cat playground and a butterfly garden all in one!

I hope that makes sense. Let me know if you have any more questions about catmint!
