So if I were to plant some catnip in my front yard, it would not
*hurt* the cats, right?

No.

Is catnip the same as catmint?

Possibly. Generally, though, catnip is the whiteflowered one (Nepeta
cataria), whereas catmint is either the tall or the low blueflowered one
(Nepeta grandiflora, Nepeta x faassenii).
