"Marigold helps with infections.." he trailed off, narrowing his eyes slightly as he remembered the time Owlpaw came with cracked pads. "And cracked pads?" he added on with a bit of doubt in his tone, hoping that was somewhat correct, as he'd just stuck with the herb he used most times.

Shinefang stared down at the little, blonde tom with bright green eyes that swam with thought. Patiently, he heard the young apprentices answer and let his long, bush tailtip thump lazily on the den floor. "Infections yes. Pads...maybe if the pads look like they'll get infected. If you're just trying to sooth pain, you're better off using dock." The old tom scrunched up his face and grunted as he stood up again, his hips aching with the strain. He made his way over to the shelf where he stored his herbs and pointed with his tail at a cluster of long leaves. "This is dock. It looks a lot like a beech leaf..." he said, realizing this information was probably lost on a Windclan cat who made their home on the open plains. "Here, just come smell it. It's easier to recognize by smell because of that...tangy scent it gives off."
