Black mackerel tabby tom with green eyes

At this moment in his life, Milkweedkit is of average build for a kit. But as he grows, he hopes to be as big as his father. Right now he feels that that is nothing more then a pipe dream. How can a cat like him, with only three legs, hope to get enough bulk on him to compare to the other cats in his clan? Only time would tell for this young tom.

With his loss of limb, the young toms gait is almost jerky. Having only his front two paws to keep him moving and his back to keep him stable, its hard for him to get around like the other cats. But he manages. It thanks to this awkward gait he is unsure about his place in the clan.

As for his pelt, at a glance he looks just like his sisters with his tabby coat, but his coat is slightly darker in the right light, more like his fathers. Just like his father, his fur is short, covering his body in compact but soft layers. 

His face is very pleasing to look upon with its very small muzzle. It is similar to his mamas only a little smaller. His nose is almost that of a rose color, not as pink as some of the other cats. His eyes are a dark green, almost the color of drying moss. 

-/+ Simple minded
Like his father in some ways, Milkweedkit isn't the brightest of cats. But he is still young and has time to learn what to do and not to do from his parents. Especially from his mama.

-Self-Conscious
Because of his birth defect, he feels that he will not be able to be a full clan member like his family. He feels that he won't be able to hunt like the rest of them or fight the way the others do.

-Naive
Due to his sheltered life, Milkweedkit doesn't really know what it's like outside of the nursery. Having little to no interactions with the other cats of the clan he only believes what his parents have told him.  

+Charismatic
Despite his physical setbacks, this young tom has found that he has a way with words and can get cats to listen to him. There are days that other cats start to wonder just how old he really is.

+Thoughtful
This tom loves to help those around him, be it with food or cuddles.

Milkweedkit was born to small litter of three. He was the last born to Robin-nose and Tigerpool. To his amazement, he was the only male. This is a little upsetting to him, being the only boy, but he couldn't be happier in his little family. When he was starting to learn to walk, he had some difficulty missing his back leg, but after time and patience from his parents he was soon hobbling around the nursery. 

During that time, it was as though his family was in its own little bubble. Not knowing about the wars that ravaged his clan. All he knew was the safety he felt being around his mama. From there he would watch the other more active kits play and fight, while his sisters and himself were in their own little world. A world that would soon come crashing down once he became an apprentice and would soon start to learn how things really are in his clan.

He hopes to one day be the best warrior despite missing a leg.
