Fun facts pt 3

Its been a while since I made a list like this! I figured it was time for some more info about the clans, since you guys haven’t gotten to see too much into the clans besides Grassclan so far. So here’s some more info from The Land’s Star:

Its believed that when a shooting star streaks across the sky its really Starclan cat being sent back to earth to be reincarnated.

Wishing upon a shooting star is popular as a result, as living cats believe the blazing tail of light which streaks behind the star is leftover powers from Starclan leaving the soon-to-be reincarnated cat behind. Cats believe these powers to be able to grant wishes

There have been a few know, but rare cases, of clans taking in non-cat creatures to raise as their own. Oceanclan and Marshclan have both taken in otter pups at one point or another, Treeclan has raised opossum joeys a couple of times, there have been two known cases of Grassclan taking in small dogs, and there is a rumor that Mountainclan once raised a bear cub back in Greystar The Sturdy’s day. The fable “The Fox and the Queen” is based off of true events (though the real fox cub never murdered its adoptive mother, merely attacked her and ran away). 

In recent years, Starclan has begun to reach out to future leaders in their dreams, and not just medicine cats and cats who are already leaders. If Starclan sees most pathes for a cat lead to them being leader (even if they are not deputy yet) they may start to send very vauge dreams to them. This is not to interfere with what their future holds, rather its to create a bond between the cat and their ancestors early on. Cats usually do not realize it’s been Starclan visiting them in sleep until they earn their nine lives

Queens have a right to not reveal who the other biological parent of their kits are. Though there is a part of the Warrior Code which states cats need approval from their leader and medicine cat, that only matters when a cat is choosing a mate outside of their clan. It doesn’t count towards a cat becoming pregnant (even if by an outsider) because in these sorts of cases, the litter’s sire does not want/won’t have involvement in the kits’ upbringing. Therefore there’s no fear of a cat or clan seeking to claim the halfblood kits, and so this matter does not become something for a leader amd medicine cat to worry about.

Queens keep track of the age of their kits by the phases of the moon. The night a litter is born, the queen (or their mate) turns their attention towards the sky and takes note of how round of slim the moon is. Then, its all a matter of remembering this until the kits are apprenticed. Afterwards, its up to the kits and their mentors to keep track of their age

Queens are permitted to have apprentices, even when they have a litter of kits. Other cats in the clan will help aid in training if the queen is heavily pregnant or nursery bound

Kits and apprentices (and rarely warriors) can be caught eating bugs on occasion. Though most favor meaty prey, insects make a good snack and help to stop the grumbling of empty bellies when a cat does not have the opportunity to eat a full meal for a while.

Typically, clans will have more than 1 medicine cat, or at least try to, especially in the biggest of the 5 clans (Treeclan and Grassclan). They believe it’s unfair to have only one cat avalible to heal a good 30-45 clanmembers. Of course, there are times when there is only one medicine cat, but sometimes there can be an upwards of 5 at once if conditions are right. One medicine cat can train all the others, or a fully named apprentice can train a ‘paw. There can also be multiple apprentices at the same time, should there be more than one kit willing to be trained. Usually though that only happens when there are already 2 named medicine cats, but it can happen when there is only one as well

Cats cannot be forced into a job that they have no interest in, even if the clan is low on the amount of warriors for a particular job (say, fighting for example). This is because the clans know a cat who is made to do a job they dislike will most likely do poorly (usually not purposely, but sometimes out if spite). This is why cats are allowed to take on multiple jobs. That is not to say, however, cats cannot preform the tasks of a specific job when the clan is in dire need (like fighting in a war, or hunting in leaf-bare). This is why apprentices are trained to know the skills required for each job.

Leaders with multiple lives cannot come back from certain injuries. Decapitation, total body evisceration (such as being blown up), etc. are unfixable wounds because Starclan can’t heal what’s no longer there. As a result, this is the only way (besides being an evil leader) that a cat can lose all their remaining lives at once. This also means that if a leader loses any body part, it will not come back when they are resurrected after losing a life.
