I Always Have The Vaguest Idea For A Cat - Blog Posts

Grotto Clan warrior

Willowjaw

Ex-Mate: Fliss

Sibling: Slateheart

Kits: Wooddrift, Sailfur and Alliumeye

Her sister Slatepaw always managed to get a rise out of her, and the two would end up arguing, only for their mentors to break them up. She was embarrassed and resentful of the way Slateheart would bring attention to her. By the time she reached the age of a warrior, Willowjaw would wonder the coast-side, lost in thought. Grottoclan had always had a connection with the boat cats that came into the harbor, so opportunity for cats from each groups meeting were high. When the pretty brown and white tom said hello to her she couldn’t help but smile.

The toms name was Fliss, he was a charming young cat. The two probably rushed into things a bit too fast, the long distance of their relationship didn’t help anything either. The horrible realization hit her when she found out she was expecting. She broke the news to Fliss, and when he responded with fear, her heart sank. He told her he had the life of a boat cat, and couldn't care for his kits. Maybe it was best they didn't see eachother anymore. This hit her like a rock, she was devastated.

She raised Sailkit and Alliumkit on her own, to say things were hard for her would be an understatement. It didn't help that Slateheart didn't show her much sympathy. By the time her kits grew up they weren't close with their closed off mother, and she had no friends.

That's when she met Fliss again, to be honest she had missed their old love. The time they had been together was the happiest of her life. And Fliss was willing to give things another chance.

When she had another single kit she didn't tell him. She scooped up Woodkit and ran into the night. When his boat came ashore she told him she was ready to become a boat cat. She was ready to commit to him with their daughter. She was gonna live this dream. And just like last time he grimaced, mumbled an excuse, and turned away.

After her heart was broken again she swore off romance of any kind, she didn't care anymore. When she put Fliss behind her it almost seemed like she was more emotionally there for Woodkit. She babies Wooddrift alot and has grown attached to her. She has tried to connect with her first litter, and although they will always resent her in some way. They have begun to heal as a family. She currently doesn't approve of Wooddrifts choice in mates, thinking he'll just break her heart. But let's it slide as her daughters happy.
