If your tank and healer aren't so great, just mangle/shred - you do have Shreding Attacks, right? Should only be 42 energy per shred; not sure what you'd want to do with the combo points, as you either get a bleed DoT from rip (thats no good - it'll die too soon) or you use all of your energy on FB (also bad).
You only use 75 energy at most for a bite. Just use it when you're at 40-50 energy and you're good for trash.

My feral druids currently 72, and i havent been dps on it for an instance since deadmines. I now prefer to tank/heal. (Duel specced ofc)
Its not hard to have a build thats both good for tanking and solo. Especially for lower instances. Yoiu could go with
this
just take points out of primal tenacity for other things in which you prefer. When i hit 73 I'll be respeccing to
0/53/11
which will be my tanking spec up untill 80 (respeccing mainly to take things from pvp oriented talents and put them into more tank survivability. Especially nurturing instincts, which seems to suck now most my gear is AP/Crit/Expertise Stats. If I want to go DPS to an instance, ill go on my warlock (70), much more damage.
Anyway, all we on here can say is our opinions and advice, the final result is always down to personal preference. We can tell you how awesome we think feral is. You just have to find out yourself.

Get tigers fury.
60 extra energy on demand is fantastic. Just play with it a little and you'll never make a feral dps build without it.
As for aoe wars, swipe if you have 4 mobs or more.
Swipe, Swipe, Tigers Fury, Swipe, Swipe, with a few OoC procs, you'll be top dps.
To utterly own the dps meters, burn your berserk along with a dps trinket when you come to a large aoe pull.
You'll really be able to top the damage meters once you get savage roar. mangle -> roar, swipe, tigers fury, swipe, pull aggro, swipe, barksin, swipe, get massive heals, swipe.
But of course, thats at 75+, which is going off topic, but honestly its not that far away.

If you can use up to 75, and you're only at 50, you're kinda out of energy, yes? I believe that was what Madcatle wanted to avoid.
Yes, but if you're hesitant to use an ability because you're going to be out of energy I don't think you're thinking the right way anyhow...

Pre Cat-Swipe you may as well just shift out of cat and do a Hurricane (that's what i do these days) depending on how big the pull is and how much dps you do in cat.

I usually do 2x swipe, tigers fury and berserk. that means you can get off 4 swipes if not more due to OoC.

I'd be hesitant because you wouldn't be able to do anything with the next mob for several seconds while your energy recharged. On the first mob in a pull, I'll usually mangle-rake-(shred)-roar, the shred being dependent on the mob's hp, then pause for energy while everyone else continues to pound on him - maybe 3 or 4 seconds. For the next mob, roar is up, and I can start in on FB or rip.
I'm certainly not letting my energy cap at 100 at any point in time, if thats what you were saying.
Edit: this would be for small pulls... mangle-roar then swipe spam with TF or berserk for more than 3 or 4.
So you'd be hesitant to shred at 42 energy too? I mean, if you're out of energy you're out of energy, regardless of which spell you cast, yes?
