Medicine cats are the healers of their clans. They may take no mates nor have kits. They must be fully dedicated to the physical and spiritual protection of their clan. There may be only two medicine cats at one time, the eldest medicine cat and their apprentice in training.
There are two medicine cat-specific suffixes, -herb and -feather. They're listed in the naming guide, if you'd like more information.
