Kittypet

A kittypet is the Clan cat word for a cat kept as a pet by Twolegs. Kittypets are known to be fed everyday and pampered by Twolegs. They are usually plump and well-fed, with dry, tasteless pellets that look like rabbit droppings. They make dirt in a box of rocks. They are soft-muscled, and wear collars. At a certain age, they're taken to what is known as the cutter. After this visit, they usually become lazy and have no desire to do much. In the Clans' vocabulary, the term "kittypet" can be used as an insult as in, "You hunt like a kittypet!" meaning that they cannot hunt or hunt poorly.

Other Information

 * Know very little about the arts of fighting and hunting (With notable exceptions).
 * Several ties to ThunderClan exist, including Fireheart and Cloudtail, and the two Riverclan ties with Hawkfrost and Mothwing.
 * When SkyClan was scattered, several cats went on to become kittypets and bore kittypet offspring.
 * Scourge was actually a kittypet named Tiny, but he left his mother, Quince, and siblings, Socks and Ruby. He left due to his small size.

Clan Opinions
Clan cats consider kittypets to be living in disgrace, taking food from Twolegs and living in a false comfort beyond the reach of StarClan. Kittypets are commonly considered "soft," or "stupid," among other things. This leads many cats to not trust cats of kittypet descent such as Cloudtail, Firestar, Millie, Daisy, and their kin.
