Talk:Diseases and injuries

Kittencough?
In Into the Wild, I think a disease called Kittencough was mentioned. Should we add that? --Rainwhisker 09 22:58, November 2, 2009 (UTC)

I think that was just another name for Whitecough, since it is common in kits, but you can add that it's another name. ♫ insaneular ♫ Down at Fraggle Rock! 22:59, November 2, 2009 (UTC)

Can you verify what page it was on? --Aurorablaze 23:04, November 2, 2009 (UTC)

I don't remember anything about Kittencough--Nightfall101 22:27, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

It's mentioned during the Gathering:

Runningnose was telling the cats about a herb that medicine cats had used in the old days to cure kitten-cough. "Since the Twolegs came and filled the place with hard earth and strange flowers, the herb has disappeared, and kittens die needlessly in cold weather." - Pg. 144, Into the Wild Rain  whisker  武士貓  01:31, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

To Insaneular
Shouldn't it be: "In the Super Editions" Instead of "In the Super Edition Series because the super editions arent a series, firestar's quest takes place in between the darkest hour and midnight but bluestar's prophecy takes place before into the wild --Aurorablaze 22:16, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

Well I put it that way because that's how it is on nearly every other page, and that's what the category is called. (Category:Super Edition Series not Category:Super Editions). Insane Can't Wait!!  22:30, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

Expansion
Though the title says Diseases, the page presents exclusively white/greencough. It should be expanded with all other known diseases, illnesses and conditions. Waitingforspring 20:49, February 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, this was first merged from Whitecough and Greencough, so we called it diseases. And there aren't really any other diseases that the cats know of, besides these, except sometimes they get colds, and all the rest of injuries are physical. so... I don't see a need to add more, personally, but that's just my view. ♫ insaneular ♫ Down at Fraggle Rock! 20:52, February 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * There are a few if you think about it... poisoning, toothache, bellyache, conditions related with age (aching joints etc). I will try to make a test page, see if it's OK. Waitingforspring 21:13, February 26, 2010 (UTC)

There have been serious sicknesses that the cats just don't have names for (Tawnyspots sickness, the lump in Pebblefurs belly, etc.) They bare there, just not mentioned. Should we list them too?-- Artimas Hunter Welcome to Bramblepath's Den 22:17, February 26, 2010 (UTC)

I think we should, because they are diseases, just not common. Also, the rabbit sickness in WindClan during Moonrise, which killed a lot of WindClan cats. There are a few more, but I can't remember them right now. Rain whisker  武士貓  01:27, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

I expanded the article. Helixtalk 18:23, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

A mistake
It says that Jayfeathers blindness was a birth defect, but this isnt true. He got it when he fell off the cliff or somthing...
