Queen Edith and her trusted lab assistant


Earlene Pearl Laurah Brown started the Kennebec River Company in Vassalboro, Maine in 1993. Specializing in unique and quality Maine made pet products, the company's product line has been a real story of success!

Laurah is an avid animal lover who grew up in Belfast, Maine, and spent a good deal of time at her father's veterinary hospital. It was there that Laurah obtained a knowledge of people and their pets, and found the inspiration to create products for animal lovers and their companion animals.

(Miss Earlene Pearl (right) overseas daily operations at the farm, primarily with patrol duties in the catnip garden. She is an indispensible asset to the company!)

What is catnip?

A choice catnip "bud"Catnip is an herb and one of 3,500 species of plants that belong to the mint family. In the United States 400+ tons of catnip are used each year with 78 percent of the crop going to cats!

Because catnip is an herb, it does not require FDA labeling. Because no medicinal claims are made, Kennebec River Company (a.k.a. "Catnip Queen") products do not require FDA labeling.

Catnip grows in the wild and as a cultivated herb crop. Cats are drawn to the mint-like aroma of the plant and become playful when around it.
