cats reacting to strawberries like catnip

Question
I am very surprised that you have not heard of cats reacting to strawberries like catnip, as I have two cats. which both rub their faces against strawberries with more excitement than they do to catnip.

Hi Gayle,

I admit I have never heard of this, I'll have to try it. I haven't heard of any ill side affects from cats eating strawberries, but then again I've never heard of any eating them! I did once have a cat who liked to carry an apple around in his mouth.  He didn't really eat it but he did bite into it and seemed to like it!
