General Clan information

Within the Warriors world, the cats live in a highly structured society that is firmly divided into four groups known as Clans.

The living clan cats are born into either ThunderClan, ShadowClan, RiverClan, or WindClan, while deceased cats who are believers in the religious structure all join together as StarClan.
