Shady~Kittypet

[skypaw]

Cat's Name: Shady

Clan: Kittypet

Age: 4 moons

Gender: Tom

Rank: Kittypet kit

Description:

Black and white kitten with blue eyes.

Personality: Shady tends to think he's bigger than he is. He developed a rather tough nature for a kittypet, growing up without his Mother and with only his Father. He used to be very protective of his siblings when he still lived with them and would always watch out for Silver and Snow. He's fairly clever, getting along quickly, but also independent.

Shady used to love twolegs as much as any kittypets. When he was a young kit, he would purr and get in their laps just like his siblings. Now, however, he couldn't be more different. Sad and alone without his siblings and father, he rarely lets his twolegs pet him. He isn't going to get attachted to these twolegs like he did the last ones, he's not going to get attached to anyone. The moment his twolegs let him out, he darts off and stays away for days, only coming back when he's starving or tired from being chased by dogs and angry twolegs. He thinks he can do fine on his own without any cats help.

Family:
Father: Breezy
Mother: Misty (Deceased)
Sisters: Snowy, Silver

History:
Shady never knew the love of a Mother, snuggling into warm, milk-scented fur whenever he was hungry. His mother, Misty, died giving birth to him and his sisters. Instead, he was bottle-fed in the hairless paws of his twoleg family. He loved the twolegs almost as much as he did his blood-kin and assumed that they, of course, loved him too. He spent his days playing with his siblings, bravely promising to always be with them and protect them from danger. Since he didn't have a Mother, he had a particularly strong bond with his littermates and Father.

Now, Shady had heard the stories if twolegs giving away kits when they reached a certain age. It was normal. But these twolegs hand-raised them, and it never crossed the young tom's mind that he would be separated from his siblings. But he was. And to him, worst of all, was that his Father didn't try to stop them from taking him and his sister, Silver. He could tell he was a little sad but he didn't grieve. Because of that, Shady but up a strong front until he got to his new home.

For a few days, he stayed under a chair, trembling, fur fluffed out. His new twolegs, a young twoleg and his mate, tried to coax him out but to no avail. Finally, one day, as he mulled over his thoughts, he padded out. He didn't need twolegs, he didn't need anyone. Not Breezy, not Snowy, not Silver, not his twolegs. His twolegs were delighted he had come out, but the wild little kit regarded them with cold indifference as he petted them and when he was tired of it, hissed.

The twolegs decided when he was about 3 moons old that maybe he would be happier outside and installed a cat door. Now, at only 4 moons, the kit wanders the dangerous streets and sometimes grasses of twolegplace. Sometimes he passes by a familiar house but stubbornly refuses to go near it. On occasion, when he's really lonely, he'll break down and try to find Silver but hasn't been able to yet. He digs in twoleg garbage to try to find a bite to eat but is usually ran off by larger rogues until he finally returns home where he rests for a couple days before heading out again.
