I’m not aware of any plans (yet) to make it illegal in the United Kingdom..
A funny but true story:
Some hippies I know bought a bag, which they placed in a drawer. They then went out, leaving their pet cat in the house. (This is unwise, for a start 😉 )
They came back to find the room in some confusion, the drawer open, and the cat asleep amongst the remains of the bag. The bulk of the herb had been eaten by the animal, which had then shredded the bag with its claws, scattering the rest and then rolling in it! It had also obviously been running around at some point and in doing so had upset various other items that were in the room….
There must have been something particularly attractive to the cat; which had gone to some considerable effort to open the drawer apart from risking trouble from its owners when they returned home!
(I am pleased to say the cat was unharmed in the long run, either by the effect of the drug or any punishment from its owners!)
