Yeah, but in the books, every cat except the evil cats put the Clan first. So if the medicine cats kept any herbs, they wouldn't eat them themselves, they would've given them to other cats. Plus, sometimes there is a shortage of herbs and the medicine cats still have to be around sick cats.

Good theory though.
