Are you considering making Firestar purebred? Not that it matters to the plot lol. I’ve always designed him after an Abyssinian :3

I know the clans have a bunch of mixed genetics so they wouldn’t *be* purebred, but do you have any breed HCs for specific cats? I draw Yellowfang based on scrungly persians myself :)

Nah! I'm actually only considering purebred cats for SkyClan to put some more of their kittypet-ancestry on display!

I think thematically it works really well for SkyClan specifically, and will make for some really cool ancestral traits to be passed down in the coming generations... even though realistically, no cat with SkyClan ancestry would be "purebred."

(in fact purebreeding discourages outbreeding often to the detriment of the health of the cats but woogh)

I'm not super fond of picking out breed headcanons otherwise because it feels stifling, like Cat Genetics, another thing I'm not interested in. When I want Bluestar's family to have a wolf motif I just draw them having a wolf motif. Next to Brokenstar's glasses, Spottedleaf's blight theme, or Thrushpelt's mullet, just picking a cat breed seems mundane.

I like to design with "soft" fantasy elements in mind! It's why I have a very 'Bring Your Own Design' approach to my rewrite and encourage people to have different takes on stuff. Never been able to draw realistically.

(actual ecological/bushcraft/medical research? I'm plugged in. Drawing realism? Not my style.)

Though, I do think Silverflame's mate was a cat with extreme brachycephaly. A persian-like cat. I imagine Brightflower had a few breathing problems as a result, but by the time it got to Yellowfang she has enough muzzle to be healthy and for it to just be a quirk of her family.

#Plus the family traits I've picked so far can be altered so freely #Broken Rowan and Little all have different types of glasses but it's the same family trait #That's fun! I can sit there and think about what pair of glasses I'm gonna give them #I don't really get that with breeds-as-a-trait #OH oh the note of Yellowfang's Face #Just through genetic luck it's not prevalent with either of her grandkits #But it probably will persist in Rowanberry's line down through Stumptail #Stumptail has a very round face #Bone Babble #Side note I'm trying to work out Tigerstar's family #I've just been sketching them in my notebooks lmao #I also want to keep Silverflame's 'coat' in her descendants...#GOD she was a pretty cat #Brokenstar and his biokids Littlecloud and Rowanstar take a lot from their grandfather but little from their grandma

Look Kristen is a kid so its understandable and Ally is great and I'm sure has a plan for this. But Kristen should not be a cleric lol. I hope that after the wizard synogue incident Cassandra takes the Archfey deal to keep herself safe and Kristen loses her powers because honestly based on her RP that girl has NO wisdom. She has NEGATIVE wisdom. If you don't like the gods currently on offer but can't take responsibility for keeping a new one alive (because you're a kid) then you should just respec. Pick a charisma-based spellcaster class that doesn't require a bunch of work like the Int classes or responsibility like the Wis classes. Give up your soul to Fig (or just give it back to newly-Archfey Cassandra) for Warlock spells idk.

#like I know kristen is a vessel for exploring the experience of growing up in an abrahamic religion and like. developing as your own person #which is why they're working within the existing forgotten realms universe but foregoing the usual pantheon #and replacing it with Sol and Helio which are just God and Jesus metaphors #but that kind of self-exploration usually ends up in either atheism or non-abrahamic philosophies like buddhism no?#neither of which are compatible with the cleric class. like kristen clearly doesnt really like being a prophet. she cant handle it #have her awaken latent sorcery or something. I'd honestly accept her becoming a druid even though they also have a lot of responsibilities #but like shes GONNA kill cassandra if cassandra doesnt leave her first #and that'll be the second god that she created and then killed with her neglect. she may have been helio's chosen but shes a shit cleric #pretty much all teenagers would be shit clerics #maybe she can come back to it later #but cassandra girl you gotta flee. take your cat and your magic and run #d20 #fantasy high #fhjy #kristen applebees #fantasy high junior year #dimension 20

I looked up randomly and she was just STARING at me like this.

#i can't believe this but she is 8 pounds #8! pounds!#that's...a normal weight for a cat and not actually tiny #however #she is kinda fat and should probably un-chunk a bit #which would be easier if she did not sneak into the studio to eat her brother's food every chance she gets #god i love her #look at her little goblin face #she isn't super pretty or anything but holy crap is she charismatic #cats #fancy #littlemissfancypants

We're currently switch my cat's food and litter to try to figure out what's causing this weird mystery allergy she's had for the last like 5 years and I was kinda worried she wouldn't like the new food bcs you never know, but actually she likes it so much it's actually ridiculous. Cuz like when you switch a cat(or dog's) food you have to taper it like a medication, you keep giving them the old food but slowly mix in more and more of the new food while mixing in less of the old, cuz if you don't you can make them sick, and she is SO SO SO mad that I keep giving her ANY of the old food.

Whenever I go to fill up her bowl I first add in the old food and then mix in the new, and while she used to just immediately start eating when I'd pour her food now she just watches me do the first one, sniffs the bowl, and then sits back and stares at me like "uh mother it appears there's been an error" and then when I reach for the other food she looses her MIND and starts shoving her face in my way and meowing and getting all excited and she only starts eating once it's mixed in.

So like, glad she enjoys the new stuff at least!

#also it looks like her allergy is improving a lot but we're pretty sure it wasnt the food lol #bcs we switched the litter and she IMMEDIATELY improved a bunch #but we still dont think we've found the righ one bcs this one still is a powder kinda and it kicks up dust #and she does still sneeze and scratch her ears more than she should #so we're gonna try this pellet stuff next and see if it works #and I guess we can keep getting her the new food too bcs she really seems to like it lmaoooo #I do hope this is it tho bcs the vet told us we could try this hypoallergenic special prescription cat food #AND BY GOD IS THAT SHIT EXPENSIVE HOLY FUCK #like we could afford it if we really stretched things but only barely #so fingers fucking crossed this fixes it!!!!

“Of course you have an Other Brother,” he says, waving off her denial as he opens some nearby cabinets. “Who else would I be if I wasn’t?”

Small WIP sketch of the Other Brother from IDKSomethingClever99’s fic “Mari in the Pink Palace”!!! OMORI and Coraline are my two biggest interests ever so this fic was like winning the lottery for me. Not to mention how good it is… please go read it ragh

#omori #omori au #omori sunny #coraline #this fic cured my artblock and writing block partially too is there anything it can’t do #Idksomethingclever99 what are you PUTTING in this thing it’s like a drug in the best way possible #Anyway this is a really lazy and terrible other brother design… I had so many other ideas for his outfit #I had wanted to keep the bug motifs the other mother has in her outfit as well as referencing the recital #Cause. You know #mari’s perfect world #Where he gets good at the violin lmao…#But I got lazy so here was a very simplified design I made #Fingers yearned for rest couldn’t draw complicated ideas I had…#Anyways anyways love this fic #So much #god #i fucking love how mewo is portrayed too #She’s like a weary mother trying to give some tough love to her kids landkrk #She’s such an asshole but I say that affectionately #Not to mention the fact that she didn’t info dump like the cat did in coralline to mari because she was more focused on getting her home-#-and safe from the beldam than actually telling her what he was doing… christttt #And yes I will still call him the beldam #Them??? Idk djdjdjej #I also love how all the other friends are gahhhh… I can’t WAIT to see their other forms when mari’s getting the eyes #Fun fact this drawing was originally meant to be a redraw of that one scene with the cocobugs #Since it’s super pretty and I wanted to draw it #But it’s not in the fic yet (next chapter I think?) and the author takes a lot of creative liberties which I LOVE so I wanna read the scene #First before attempting to draw it #But I really hope they lean into the uncanniness of Sunny of all people surrounding himself with bug imagery #Since that goes against what mari knows about him a LOT and will further cement that something is NOT RIGHT with this guy

Finding out that "cat scratch fever" is a real thing and not just a metaphor in a song while googling why I've got muscle/joint pain radiating from my shoulder to my fingers after getting scratched and bit a lot by my new kitten and then realizing that my lymph node is swollen

#'more common from kittens and cats with fleas' bruh ALL kittens have fleas 😭#she doesnt have them anymore but she definitely did when we first got her. like a lot of them. poor baby #its also saying that one of the main symptoms is red swelling around the scratch that doesnt go away #but like. im allergic to cats so thats normal for me 😭 how am i even supposed to tell #i had to look up how to find a lymph node but im pretty sure i found it and im pretty sure its swollen #like i can feel a lump where its supposed to be on this side but not on the other side. and it hurts to touch it #trying to go to sleep now but there is no way to lay thats comfortable 😭#maybe its nothing and itll go away. or maybe its an allergy thing #but if i seriously got 'scratched by a kitten' disease bc i didnt know it was possible im gonna be so mad #that shouldnt be allowed to be a thing. @ god i have some notes #rambling

It’s getting properly into autumn now which is my favourite time of year for multiple reasons, but a relatively newish one is that Steven gets her winter coat back which means she’s extra fluffy

At the moment it’s mostly just on her neck/chest but give it a month or so and she’ll be so fluffy

Another benefit is the fact that I’m not having to vacuum up as much cat fur

#Steven #she’s actually pretty low maintenance for a long haired cat but my god does she mault in the summer months

daily whistlepaw until ah becomes PoV day 1167

I think I finally understand how people feel when around a crush, can't say I enjoy it

#warrior cats #whistlepaw #windclan #medicine cat apprentice #this isn't my first crush lol but this one has had me feel the strongest of feelings (and might be my first genuine crush lol)#the fact I have been building up A Lot of stress for the entire week probably didn't help.#and the fact my stomach hurt is also probably at least partially to explain by the fact I barely ate last night #but MAN seeing my (latest) crush in such a pretty dress and then go on stage and play (a goddess!!!!!!! she's a goddess)#(I already bought tickets to go see the full thing; I will die but I will die happy (I hope))#but yeah I struggled for a good 2 hours to fall asleep and also had stomach weirdness happening the next morning #man it was not fun #(and then she came to sit next to me during class and I had to play it cool (I was too deranged on sleep deprivation to really care about #being my typical brand of weird but I do sometimes feel like an idiot around her and feel guilty because then I fear that she finds me #annoying and will hate me and I will fail this again (losing a friendship over a crush once was not that fun lol) and Traumas don't help #either at all so uh I'm just trying to spend time with her I just always feel a bit worried that I'm annoying her and it's consuming my bra #I do also still feel a little guilty about having this crush; internalized homophobia/issues around sexuality are hard to shake off #and while it's very normal and stuff I never dare to go the entire way when my brain conjures fantasies that are a little too risqué #I just feel guilty man I know I shouldn't but still it fucking sucks in my brain #and god talking about this in therapy would be a mess #I might have to eventually but I don't wanna #anyways; wild vent in the tags aside; yay a whis!

PALEBREEZE SENIOR WARRIOR ⊱ HOWLINGCLAN ⊰

|| FEMALE || SENIOR (105 MOONS)

|| INSECURE || BELOVED KITSITTER lore dump below if that's your thing /ᐠ - ˕ -マ

☽◯☾

As one of the founding members of HowlingClan, she especially feels the importance of protecting and taking care of the clan. She rarely uses her claws and teeth, preferring to take a peacekeeping approach with compassion and words. She’s always been more passive, her insecurities keeping her from approaching situations with assertiveness or typical Warrior-aggression. When HowlingClan was young, she served among the warrior ranks, but now that clan has grown in numbers and strength, Palebreeze feels herself drawing further away from the lifestyle of a warrior. Perhaps one day, she’ll join Duskskip as a fellow Mediator and tend to the disputes of their clan. And with so many new kits in the nursery, some orphaned, her motherly touch might be what HowlingClan needs right now.

Palebreeze is a prominent figure among HowlingClan, well-liked and loved by many, especially by Beambark, one of her oldest friends. Beambark always let her voice her thoughts without fear of judgment, and it was no surprise when Palebreeze realized her romantic feelings for the moody medicine cat. However, she refrained from letting her love known, fearing rejection from the medicine cat who held tight to her loyalty to The Code of Old While on a lone patrol to collect her thoughts, Palebreeze came across the Thunderpath that divided HowlingClan and the TwolegPlace and found a collapsed she-cat with an awful injury. Palebreeze trudged the she-cat back to camp, where she did, in fact, make a full recovery. The stranger introduced herself to HowlingClan as a kittypet who left her home behind to pursue life among the clans after being guided by StarClan. Her supposed strong connection to their warrior ancestors was questionable, and the clan was suspicious when the kittypet told them she even received her name, “Pansyskitter” from Starclan themselves. Palebreeze liked the strange she-cat, however, and the two grew into quite great friends, Pansyskitter always making time for the warrior between her new medicine cat duties. She wondered if this silly, cheerful she-cat was sent into her life for something more, and Palebreeze tried to entertain the idea of a life together. But she never felt the same festering love as she did for Beambark, and even though a future with her seemed like an unreachable dream, Palebreeze’s heart never wavered, and neither did her hopes. And then, one day, she was approached by an unusually emotional Beambark, and was shocked and overjoyed when the medicine cat finally confessed her own love for Palebreeze. With tears in her eyes, Palebreeze laughed. "It's about time! I was waiting for you to get the nerve to finally ask me out."

- I can't see her having biological kits. But she's always there for every new kit in the clan, and maybe one day, fate will bless her with a kit to adopt as her own <3

-She'll probably become a mediator soon, now that HowlingClan has so many able warriors now. And she'll be in favor of Beambark's views too, sooo that'll be interesting ..
