The clans

The cats in the books live in clans and they have leaders that get nine lives just like the myth that cats get nine lives. The nine lives are given to them by StarClan, where cats belive that their ancestors go and where they will go when they die. The first word of the cats names is chosen when they are born, for example if a mother has her kit and names it fire, then when it is a kit its name will be firekit. When that same kit turns into a apprentice the name will change to firepaw. Then when the apprentice turns into a warrior, the paw in his name changes to whatever the leader chooses, so say firepaw is ready to become a warrior, and the leader chooses heart, so now his warrior name is fireheart. There are also two more levels in the clan, but most cats do not get there. The clan leader may choose a deputy out of the warriors, a deputy is the leader's helper but this is the only level where the name of the cat does not change. The deputy, when the leader dies becomes the next leader, and the second part of his name that his leader gave him changes to star, so the cat we have been talking about would be firestar.

Some cats also do not choose the warrior path when they are kits however, they want to be medicine cats. medicine cats heal injured warriors with herbs, and they usually do not fight. So when the kit that chose that path will be the medicine cat apprentice, when the medicine cat dies, it takes place as a medicine cat with a name that the former medicine cat chose.
