In any case, weaker cats, like elders and kits can still die even with the use of herbs.

Anyway, I think if you measured up the deathcount of any of those cats against greencough, greencough would win by a mile.

I'm really glad to hear your opinion though, it brought some interesting insight.

don't forget that sometimes the cat will be allergic to catmint and the herbs won't respond ( Willowbreeze, Molekit * Sorreltail's son, and Cinderheart's brother* )
