Not all werecreatures shift fully into their form. Some don't have full control over their inner beast and can only go part way. Others posses the ability but lack any means of accessing it; they never shift.
Silver is not the only way to kill a werecreature. They can be killed by a normal blade to the heart or from their neck being slit. Poison works on them as well. True, if you spear them in the heart or chop of their head with a silver blade they will die, but who wouldn't? What I'm saying is silver is not necessary.Normal metal works just fine. Silver is, however, slightly poisonous. It can be deadly in large amounts and/or with extremely long exposure to it.
Werecreatures have amazing healing abilities. A normal wound will seal up fast. A large wound or a severe one will take longer, but it's still quicker than a normal person's healing rate. So a werecreature can be run through with a blade and live since even as the blade is being withdrawn their organs are already healing.

For the whole shifting into another animal part, lets just start by saying that it's different for every werecreature. The main part that's different is the amount of control that an individual has. Some are fully in sync with their abilities and don't need the full moon, they can shift whenever and wherever they want. Others don't have as much control and can only shift around the time of a full moon, but they can choose not to shift as well. Some have no control at all and whenever the full moon is strongest they shift no matter where they are. These ones are often the ones people see and catch, which is why there's the whole werecreatures-only-shift-at-the-full-moon thing. It's not because they have to turn at the full moon and only can, it's just because hardly anyone has seen a werecreature shift at any other time.
