Herbs you CANNOT eat They are POISONOUS and can KILL!
Deathberries: One of these berries will kill any cat without medicine cat treatment right away. If a cat its them(most likely a dopey kit), then scoop all the berry leftovers out of their mouth. Then force them to swallow yarrow. The cat will vomit out most of the poison, but not all of it. They will be very sick for the next few days. Has dark green leaves and scarlet berries. Otherwise known as 'yew'.
Nightshade: Has dark green leaves. There is three types of nightshade. Black nightshade is the most common. It has dark purple berries. Another kind has lighter red berries. Use yarrow as treatment just as deathberries. Grows well in wet places.
Ragwort: Even though ragwort is used for medicinal uses, it is highly poisonous, as it often gets cows and horses very sick. Use yarrow right away. Juniper also helps afterward.
Stinging nettle: only part of the plant is poisonous. The part that isn't poisonous is used for medicinal uses. This plant has sharp nettles that get snagged in your fur. If the nettles break the skin you will have a horrible itch for a few hours, maybe longer. Carefully remove nettles with teeth.
Poison oak and ivy: Poison plants that give horrible rashes to those who brush against them.
Warn your Clan about these plants, and to never, EVER eat them.
