If you want to use your healing touch to help not topped off raid members, which is what I use it for, then you really can't take bloodtalons because it might turn out to be a dps loss since you aren't using it to its fullest and might end up buffing a shred.
Feral as a spec is pretty strong on single target. Last sim they were like 5th or 6th overall. That is a sim though so take that with a grain of salt.
