Prompt: Tell me how this cat feels about Twolegs (humans) and kittypets (housecats)! (Max 200 words)
Cyrus was born a street cat and knows the troubles of interacting with humans. He has mixed feeling about them, and always takes a very cautious approach when one is too close to him. When he was younger, he was captured in a human trap and taken away for a while before being released again. His memory is a little foggy about remembering what happened, but he realized shortly after returning that his left ear looked different. It was unclear to him what happened or why at the time, but since joining The Renegades they have explained to him what it means.
However, even with all the problems humans have caused him, Cyrus appreciates the good some of them show him. When he was a hungry kit, there was a nice old lady who would set out food for all of the stray cats. While he was always cautious, Cyrus knew he could always count on that kittypet food when he had no alternatives.
It's easy to have the streetcat mentality of "cushy kittypets" and join in on the jokes, but secretly Cyrus wonders what it would have been like to be a kittypet instead. Still, he had no desire to actually be one.

Kitty trying out for: #842
Prompt: Tell me about this cat's best friend! (Max 300 words)
Unlike her sister Honeysong, Pollencloud was always the awkward one. Where her sister shined in the spotlight, Pollencloud was content being alone and never dreaming too big. One day though she realized that she had no good friends to talk to - sure, she could talk to her sister, but Honeysong always had to butt her nose into her sister's business. Pollencloud wanted someone who would listen and not offer silly advice. So, she set out making her own friend! Well, 'making her own friend' as in finding sticks in the forest and wrapping them in spiderweb (much to the healers dismay) to form the shape of.. honestly she wasn't sure. It was a jumbled up mess, but it was her jumbled up mess and she didn't mind!
She named it Sharpbranch (after accidentally poking herself with it a couple times while making it), and whenever she was feeling lonely or wanted to talk she'd take it out with her into the forest to ramble about some dumb thing someone else did, or her feelings about this certain someone. Some of the other clan cats didn't understand it, and Pollencloud would admit to herself it was a little odd her best friend was a handcrafted mess of sticks, but it was therapeutic to her.
..even if sometimes she had to apologize to Sharpbranch for breaking them and quickly scurrying to repair them.

Prompt: How does this cat brighten their Clanmates' day / cheer up their Clanmates? (Max 250 words)
Whenever cats come to the medicine den and they're feeling sad or nervous, Honeysong will sing for them. Sometimes it's just a little humming, and other times it's a little ditty she made up on the fly, but it tends to help cheer her clanmates up. It's especially helpful when she has to care for kits! She loves singing young kits to sleep with a lullaby. The other healers love listening to her songs while out in the forest picking herbs or during an otherwise monotonous, boring day of sorting their herbal supply. They'll even join in with her sometimes. In fact, sometimes they'll even go so far as to help her make up new songs to sing! Everybody loves contributing new lyrics for her to sing, and the songs will silly lyrics are always a good laugh.
