Who becomes an elder next?

I'm glad they killed off few characters of Thunderclan in TBC. However, I'm not glad they killed the interesing characters who actually had personality (Stemleaf, Rosepetal).

[@frannie4310]

I miss Rosepetal :,(

[@lapinajustleft]

Yeah. They should’ve killed one of the clone babies like Leafshade, Hollytuft, or Honeyfur. No one cares about them. At least Rosepetal and Stemleaf had their own characters instead of “yeah I’m here to fill in scenes and be retconed every book”

Whitewing being 10 YEARS OLD:

[@michellelopez2170]

About the weird timeline, something that has bothered me for months. Ashkit (fur) and Fernkit (cloud) were born in Into The Wild. They were still apprentices in The Darkest Hour. The time between Into The Wild and The Darkest Hour is about two years. Yet they're apprenticed a little less than a year old, near warrior age. And just before the Bloodclan battle, Ash and Fern ask to be become warriors with Thornclaw and Brightheart and Firestar declines. Why? Because they're "too young". THEY'RE A YEAR YOUNGER THAN FIRESTAR.

Hey Moonkitti! Thanks for making this video. Just a request for future ones: could you please check that text on the screen stays above the captions? KZbin’s iOS app handles captions pretty badly. Whenever you enable or disable captions, it displays a message saying “subtitles/CC turned on” for five seconds. This pop up actually covers half of the captions and it can be frustrating to wait for an extra 10 seconds every time there’s text overlapping the captions. I fully understand if it’s not feasible for you to redo videos that are basically done/ready to be posted, but going forward, it would help make your videos more accessible to your hearing impaired audience.

[@strawberryqueen0382]

It’s not ideal but on OC you’re able to move the caption placement with your mouse, unfortunately it’s not a universal feature. This consideration from Moon would def go a long way!

[@emmettrose5960]

@@strawberryqueen0382 That is a very useful feature! Thank you for offering your insight, I'll have to look into it more. I'm mostly discussing this for d/Deaf and HOH viewers using iOS, since that's what I have the most experience with.

I feel like if Bramble ever dies, stormcloud should be squilfs(squils?) mate, even though my preference is that squilf doesnt deal with anymore "mate problems" they seem to really like giving cats mate after mate after mate, look at clear sky and gray wing for example. I know squilf mentored stormcloud, but i always saw it as a cloudpaw and brightpaw thing. Also in bramblestars storm, stormcloud acts very determined in a way that mirrors squirrelpaw, which I find cute. 2:05: BEEZEPELT :D

[@snakesareamazing]

I feel like Stormcloud would work better as Sparkpelts mate. Not only would it be nice for Sparkpelt to get a new mate in general, but they also actually have some nice scenes together in Squilfs SE. When Sparkpelt is too depressed to take care of her kits, Stormcloud often played with them outside the nursery. And he also visited her a lot and brought her some prey because she wasnt eating enough. It was really sweet

Man the video is definitely not about this but. I always thought that Fernsong couldn't do what Daisy does because... well... even as a teenager, I thought the implication behind Daisy was a sort of cat wetnurse, feeding the kittens who's mothers couldn't do so for whatever reason. Like I'm not saying she's done that any time recently, but I thought that was always the implication in case there were kits who needed it. Boy cats can't do that, right? But I realize that might be an elephant in the room/overthinking it for a kids book series, haha. Overall though: I would love to see more elders. Just in a "congratulations! You survived the meat grinder that is this book series!" sort of way. I think it's really fun to see characters that have lasted through the whole series (even minor ones!) get old enough to retire gracefully.

[@taeko3508]

Daisy is not a wetnurse actually She takes care of the kids but can't feed them That's why Sorrelstripe was nursing Flamekit and Finchkit in Squirrelflight's Hope and Sunshine was nursing Coriander and Little Daisy in Daisy's kin

Hi moon

[@Countrygirl12362]

I think 12 is a good age for warrior cats to retire. I know cats can live quite a long time. My cat is 16. But it makes sense that warriors would have a shorter lifespan because of their lifestyle. Not only can they die from predators, battles, and whatnot. But the rigorous training and patrolling probably also takes a toll on their bodies making them become “older” at a younger age. Which is one reason why I think Daisy does not seem as old as she actually is because she doesn’t train and patrol everyday.
