Kits were good. Kits were great. But why did having kits in your belly have to come with the feeling of weight gain?
Cindertail was a small cat, although a bit stocky and muscular. Still, she was small, smaller than the average. And the senior warrior was painfully aware of the little bump that had formed over the past - what was it? Nearly a moon now? Yes, that sounded about right. Don't get her wrong, she was glad that she was pregnant, but the feeling of steadily gaining weight that came with having kits...yeah, not so happy about that.
Aw well. Every queen that had kits went through this feeling. Cindertail could, too.
And besides, as soon as she had realized that she was carrying kits, she immediately told Leopardfang, who was ecstatic. A happy Leopardfang was a happy Cindertail. He was getting up there in his moons - like Cindertail, he was a senior warrior - and surely he would be glad to finally have more family. After all, once his mother died when they were apprentices, all his family was gone.
Plus, kits kinda made the fact that she and Leopardfang were now mates seem more official.
Cindertail was stubbornly refusing to move to the nursery, insisting that she could remain a warrior for a couple more weeks. She was more useful as a warrior, until the kits were born, at least. And there were plenty of pregnant she-cats that continued with their warrior duties until they absolutely had to move....right? Well, her little baby bump wasn't affected her much yet, so she figured she'd be safe for now. Leopardfang didn't seem too happy with her decision to remain a warrior, though - he'd been taking care to make sure she didn't overwork herself these past few days.
Overprotective tom.
Ah well, she loved him anyway.
