Below are the plants and herbs that Medicine Cats use to treat sick or injured cats.
Taken from Warriors Field Guide: Secrets of the Clans by Erin Hunter.
Borage Leaves: A plant of small blue or pink star-shaped flowers and hairy leaves. To be chewed and eaten. Great for nursing queens as it helps increase their supply milk. Also brings down fever.
Burdock Root: A tall-stemmed, sharp-smelling thistle with dark leaves. A medicine cat must dig up the roots, wash off the dirt, and chew them into a pulp, which can be applied to rat bites. Cures infection.
Catmint (also known as catnip): A delicious-smelling, leafy plant that's hard to find in the wild; often found growing in two-leg gardens. The best remedy for Greencough.
Chervil: A sweet-smelling plant with large, spreading fernlike leaves and small white flowers. The juice of the leaves can be used for infected wounds, and chewing the roots helps with bellyache.
Cobweb: Spiderwebs can be found almost anywhere; be careful not to bring along the spider when you take the web! Medicine Cats wrap it around an injury to soak up the blood and keep the wound clean. Stops bleeding.
Coltsfoot: A flowering plant, a bit like a dandelion, with yellow or white flowers. The leaves can be chewed into a pulp, which is eaten to help shortness of breath.
Comfrey: Identifiable by its large leaves and small bell-shaped flowers, which can be pink, white, or purple. The fat black roots of this plant can be chewed into a poultice to mend broken bones or soothe wounds.
Dock: A plant similar to sorrel. The leaf can be chewed up and applied to soothe scratches.
Dried Oak Leaf: Collected in autumn and stored in a dry place. Stops infections.
Feverfew: A small bush with flowers like daisies. The leaves can be eaten to cool down the body temperature, particularly cats with fever or chills.
Goldenrod: A tall plant with bright yellow flowers. A poultice of this is terrific for healing wounds.
Honey: A sweet, golden liquid created by bees. Difficult to collect without getting stung, but great for soothing infections or the throats of cats that have breathed in smoke.
Horsetail: A tall plant with bristly stems that grows in marshy areas. The leaves can be used to treat infected wounds. Usually chewed up and applied as a poultice.
Juniper Berries: A bush with spiky, dark green leaves and purple berries. The berries soothe bellyaches and help cats who are having trouble breathing.
Lavender: A small purple flowering plant. Cures fever.
Marigold: A bright orange or yellow flower that grows low to the ground. The petals or leaves can be chewed into a pulp and applied as a poultice to wounds. Stops infection.
Mouse Bile: A bad-smelling liquid that is the only rememdy for ticks. Dab a little moss soaked in bile on a tick and it'll fall right off. Wash paws thoroughly in running water afterward.
Poppy Seed: Small black seeds shaked from a dried poppy flower, these are feed to cats to help them sleep. Soothes cats suffering from distress. Not recommended for nursing queens.
Stinging Nettle: The spiny green seeds can be administered to a cat who's swallowed poison, while the leaves can be applied to a wound to bring down swelling.
Tansy: A strong-smelling plant with round yellow flowers. Good for curing coughs, but must be eaten in small doses.
Thyme: This herb can be eaten to calm anxiety and frayed nerves.
Waterming: A leafy green plant found in streams or damp earth. Usually chewed into a pulp and then fed to a cat suffering bellyache.
Wild Garlic: Rolling in a patch of wild garlic can help prevent infection, especially for dangerous wounds like rat bites.
Yarrow: A flowering plant whose leaves can be made into a poultice and applied to wounds or scratches to expel poison.
WARNING!
Deathberries: Red berries that can be fatally poisonous to kits and elders. They are NOT a medicine. Known to twolegs as yew berries. BEWARE!

Cleaning up the Group!(Closed and Done)
Hey guys! OnyxianARPG (https://www.deviantart.com/onyxianarpg) here! I'm a new admin in the group to help Pep get everything set back up to hopefully get this group thriving again! With that being said, I am updating journals and clan lists, along with deleting any unneeded journals in the group to get everything nice and tidy ^^
So please, if you have a cat application and wish to stay in the group, note the group or comment on the body of this journal for what cats you have that you'd like to keep active in the group! Otherwise they will be removed from the lists and put into the StarClan folder, I do not mean to be mean or rude in saying this, but I was brought in to help cle
Update
So sorry guys once again I've gotten caught up with school and neglected this page. Due to no one participating in my lil contest I'm still running this page by myself for the most part and I've been very very busy with military duties on top of regular college. So please bare with me as I try to figure out how to balance all my activities.
Admin Challenge
UPDATE!!!
This will be due November 1st thank you!
Hi everybody Pep here!
So to get this group rolling again I need some more admins that are going to be active and helpful at keeping this group going. So I've devised a challenge for anyone who would like to become an admin to participate in.
The challenge is to come up with an idea for that can be submitted to the group when members complete a challenge such as going on boarder patrol or hunting patrol or completing a task set out by a mentor. It can be anything from a drawing with certain specifications to a writing task to literally filling out a sheet like with the character apps.
On
I'm Super Sorry
