Mates
1. Mates MUST be different genders in order to have kits. But there can be a FEW same sex couples, but ask me about it first.
2. Mates can be from other Clans, but since it is against the warrior code, your Clan leader may choose to punish you.
3. In order for two cats to be considered mates, they must tell eachother 'I love you' atleast 3 times.
Kits
1. PM your leader to ask if your cats can have kits.
2. Your leader will pick the names, genders, and pictures of the kits. If you do not like the pictures or names of the kits, ask nicely and maybe they will change it for you, but genders can not be changed. If you do not like this ruel, tough, deal with it.
3. There can be NO MORE than 6 kits per litter. Most litters however, will have 2-4 kits in them.
4. In the event that the parents are from 2 different Clans, the MOTHER of the kits decides what to do with them. Ex. Half will go with father, half stay will mother, or all go with father, or all stay with mother. If the mother dies, then the father chooses.
5. If your mate dies before your she~cat got pregnant, and if it is okay with your leader, she can be pregnant and say her mate died before he knew. This has happened a few times on other sites, but it isn't very common.
6. In the books, I don't think it is very fair that female leaders and deputies do not get to have kits, I find it sexist although I can sort of understand. On this site, I am allowing each female leader and deputy to have 1 litter of kits while in those positions. This may change.
7. If you have female leader/deputy have kits, they will do their Clan duty until they kit. They will care for their kits for one moon and after that they go back to their duties. (Another cat will take their job while they are busy with kits until they resume it. Leaders/Deputies may visit their kits as much as they please.)
