-Smoke: Why is it bad?

So the big thing about smoke that bars it from kitties is how sensitive cats are to smoke particles, and how they groom. For one, they have a waaay stronger sense of smell, which means they have more receptors for air particles in their nose, and a more sensitive respiratory system in general.

Not to mention, if the cat is smoking a blunt, the secondhand smoke is going to get weed particles everywhere. Cats lick themselves clean; so it may make the rest of the party sick to be around that.

That's why it's not even good to light candles or burn incense in a house with a cat. Humans really don't know how hardy we are to poisons and air quality compared to the rest of the animal kingdom.

-THC and CBD: What about it?

THC is the chemical that gets you high from cannabis use. CBD is the medicinal compound present in cannabis that can help treat epilepsy.

For my Epilepsy guide, I specifically recommended wild ditchweed exactly because it got a really high CBD content and a really low THC one. Human cultivars of cannabis select for raising the THC content, and this is what makes it so toxic to felines. They're very, very sensitive to THC but not CBD.

So how can we do this?

Portable bong.

We'll have to just accept the problems with smoke and cats, because there's no way we can truly fix that besides saying that Clan cats have stronger lungs than normal cats.

If you would like SOME sort of explanation though, you could say that Weedsmoke is descended from RiverClan cats and they just naturally have stronger lungs, or WindClan tunnelers.

We're also accepting that THC affects the cats more strongly than it does a human, and the small amount of THC present in ditchweed can get this warrior high.

But we CAN reduce the problem of getting smoke particles all over the party, by giving the character a small, portable bong. This'll give Weedsmoke better control over their weed, so that the smoke doesn't settle all over the other cats.

A bong can be made out of simple terracotta or wood, since glassmaking may be above the ability of canon-adjacent Warrior Cats.
