In my own fan-warriors story, the clans avoid mass inbreeding by doing an apprentice trade. Kits old enough to become apprentices are given a choice on what clan they would want to join. The clans are a lot more diplomatic and socially structured, so tensions don’t often happen when kits are traded. It’s seen as an opportunity to meet new cats and explore new places. There’s also the scholar’s journey, where apprentices ready to become warriors may venture into unknown territories. They teach and learn from other cats, before eventually making their way back to their clan and sharing what they learned. This gives the clans a chance to diversify the gene pool, as well as advance their own societies and welcome outsiders that may be intrigued.

[@fairycat23]

I love that!

[@asleepyb0i400]

@fairycat23 Aw thanks! I love talking about my fan-cats! In my OC warrior cat lore, the 6 clans encompassing the mountain territories (Cliffclan, Coastclan, Eskerclan, Mireclan, Sageclan, and Grottoclan) have not seen interpersonal war or conflict since the founding of the clans because of the many treaties and laws put in place, such as the apprentice trade. Every moon, the clans gather at Grottoclan to reunite with their birth clan’s family and friends, and throughout the seasons, many festivals are held to honor their ancestors and bond with their fellow cats. These clans are very diverse and societally advanced as a result of this unity, to the point that these cats have entered their own form of Bronze Age, carving into mountains to make underground cities, utilizing farming methods for cultivating medicinal plants and attracting prey, and even forming alliances with other animals! They have also flourished in the wild because of their near isolation from humans. Two-legs are seen as more of a mythical creature to the cats than a genuine threat, and monsters/cars are unheard of, let alone roads. Sorry for the rambling ;w; I have been working on and off on this lore for at least 2 years, finding new things to add to the lore of my Bronze Age cats lol

If I asked any warrior cats enjoyer to name all the background characters is power of three, they would not only be able to list the ones from tc, but also some from windclan or even sc. people complain about power of three being boring bc nothing happens, they might be right but power of three is where all the world building comes into play. Makes the world of warriors feel lived in. I know a lot of people find it mundane just to tag along on some apprentice’s daily chores but I like it. In case ur wondering (you’re not wondering but…) my favorite scene in the whole series is in power of three, when lionpaw is tucked up ready for bed in the app’s den and the younger cats are bothering him. And then cinderpaw who had been on patrol comes in with some honey that leafpool let her keep. everyone tastes it and Poppypaw says: “It doesn’t taste like anything” >:/ There was so much world building in that one scene: older apps being annoyed by young ones, the kinship apps feel towards one another, the confirmed headcannon that apps stay up late chatting. The fact that warriors do sometimes collect useful herbs while on patrol. You just don’t see much of this in the recent archs

Except they aren't given humanish ways... but those wolves definitely share ancestors closely and it doesn't help that a couple years ago the wolves were being baited outside because they were 'dlisted.

I think one easy-quick fix would be letting the she-cats have kits without mentioning or stating who the father is.

Warior cats: The cardboard cutout edition.

[@axowotlz]

What I find a bit upsetting is that the Erin’s keep spawning in these cats just to kill them off - more rather, kill the ones that have the most plot. It gives you a bit of sadness for a bit up until you realize most of the Clan at that rate just become fillers who are all related to each other. I’ve said this in the Discord and I’ll say it again; I doubt these cats will get any plot. If the Erin’s *do* end up releasing more Novellas that so happen to have a background character as the main, that’s just a background character who got lucky enough to get a super edition - such as Redtail was. But even then, at least Redtail had some kind of relevancy. Unless something very major happens with these guys in the next arc I don’t think they are ever gonna be safe from the background disarray. Seeing the new information for Arc 9 there is a chance these guys might get a redemption if our new protagonjst DOES happen to be from ThunderClan. If not, we may as well consider these guys to be less ordinary than every coffee bean blended into coffee pods.

[@rushingwater2.0]

I think one of the biggest contributors to this problem is that cats seem to be consistently having litters of 3-4 kits, when before that was a little more rare We could do with a few 1-2 kit litters, or simply have less litters

The fact that there’s an entire prophecy about Lionblaze and Jayfeather being related to Dovewing- and therefore Ivypool- makes Fernsong x Ivypool SO much worse to me. With the other cats you can kinda try to ignore everyone being related if you squint, but because they made such a point with the power of three cats being related it’s basically impossible to ignore the fact that Ivypool became mates with Lionblaze’s son. I’ve always hated the pairing because of it I need half the clan to be killed off by some disease and replaced with loners at this point.

[@honkerenthusiast]

yeah it's definitely weird especially when they point it out. idk how you would fix the inbreeding at this point though without killing off a bunch of characters and introducing new ones from outside thunderclan and/or doing a massive time skip. they could also go back to the TPB system where biological family isn't that important and a lot of cats seemed to just materialize out of thin air

[@windylue6206]

Ok they're related but consider how far apart. Lionblaze's grandpa Firestar was the uncle of Dovewing and Ivypool's grandpa Cloudtail.

Im definitely making Alabama thunderclan jokes for sure 😂

[@BK-is5fj]

What I don’t get I why Thunderclan act like they need more warriors when they have way more than the other clans combined.

[@cultspina]

this is the best moonkitti video i love not understanding family trees its like a hobby to me

[@astranomalies]

@11:40 you mean Icecloud right XD Icewing is the Riverclan cat, Icecloud is Ferncloud's kitten.

[@kenzblazedrawforever215]

As someone who skipped vision of shadows and the last hope I got really confused when I saw like 20 or so more cats in the broken code

[@clarehidalgo]

12:02 I was like "What?! Icewing isn't dead yet." then saw in the comments that you meant Icecloud

[@sorrelfox]

I never really thought about the ThunderClan side character epidemic, but man, this clan really does have enough nobodies for a whole organization

[@st4rface_r1ssie]

I say we bring back tiger star and his plan to wipe out thunderclan with the dogs

[@saeflin]

Ambermoon snowbush and dewnose are so out of the narrative i forgot brightheart had any kids other than whitewing

[@Beesbeeswhatsonthemenu]

Me too. 😭

[@honkinmarz1650]

ThunderClan’s family tree is a circle at this point

[@honkerenthusiast]

i think it logically always had to be, especially in the pre bluestar era when thunderclan was staunchly against letting any outsiders join. it worked when you just didn't think about it but now that we read about several generations being born and becoming adults it gets quite weird

[@cheeseconnoisseur8729]

I feel that most of these casts of nobodies is just fodder to fill up allegiances (wow). I find it so strange how the new team hasn't fleshed out a good majority of cats in ThunderClan, even though were in their POV for a good majority of books. It's silly to have so many characters just to do nothing with them, imo.

[@jayquillberry4972]

Was this video recorded outside? It sounds like wind. I always had the impression that Ivypool had no interest in having kits.

[@alexisartic8211]

Does anyone know what happened to the video in which Fireheart tells Bluestar’s children that she was their mother? Because I would like to be able to see it again

[@shadowdoublade3333]

me staring at the dovewing counter

[@ashfurristootired593]

I want to love these background cats as much as i loved the background apprentices in power of three, but they’re not just interesting enough. Except FlipClaw. I love FlipClaw.

[@Danmeilover69]

I dont care what the website or wiki say..the books never say that Whitestorm is Ashfur and Ferncloud 's father, therefore; it isn't canon.

[@TrinketTheDragonsHoarde]

There's two Ashfur's, an Ashfur from ShadowClan... so there could be a second Whitestorm.... but now I'm imagining Ashfur of ShadowClan being the dad of Ferncloud and Ashfur.

[@Danmeilover69]

@@TrinketTheDragonsHoarde That is now canon to me. It's perfect. :D

[@mossinvasion]

How are we feeling about Moonpaw's parents fandom

[@Squeakyduck5000]

Honestly it’s just that they’re not killing Thunderclan cats I mean who was the last Thunderclan cat to die? I think Bristlefrost, graystripe, stemleaf, but that’s only three cats and it’s been five books since then.

[@taeko3508]

True , no one died in the newest arc (I mean, technically there were no reason for having several cat dying. But maybe we'll get a big battle in Star which would results in some losses)

[@Vincents_Used]

Reading Ivypools super edition and seeing all the names with kits, I felt so OLD 😭😭😭 like last I checked you were babies wdym you have children

[@satiricwriter]

How are they not catching animal controls attention by now? Australia has one overpopulation of feral cats, they get shot at. Especially if the new books take place in our current decade

[@0iqgremlin414]

Europeans dont care about their local wildlife mostly

[@marymccann3500]

Molewhisker should become mates with Minnowtail and bring her to ThunderClan so that their babies can be unrelated to anyway and we have even the illusion of genetic diversity. EDIT- Mousewhisker. I meant Mousewhisker. Why didn't anyone say anything?

[@Waveosea]

I was watching a different video and my brain read the title of this one as 'New students Join the Fatgum Agency' (Title of other video)

[@ChoccoGlx]

I can’t wait till Moonpaw marries Cinderheart’s grandchildren and gives her children Clamydia

[@yukimizukisisterstudios7366]

I need Moonkitti to rant about the whole Thinderclan family tree for a whole video please

[@colbaltheretic1518]

Do you think Shinzo Abe used Thunderclan as his ideal model when trying to solve Japan's population crisis

[@pokemoon7367]

OK new idea, we just have a mass extinction event among all the plans and we kill off basically all the cat so the clans have to start over and get outside cats to join them because there is so few cats left in the clans. I’m thinking of fire or something that spreads among all of the clans. I just think that the warrior cats books have added too many new characters at this point that are two interconnected and it’s getting a critical mass of 20.
