mowgliOld and wise
[/b][/color]The best things in life aren't things.
They're the ones you love and cherish.
Hold them close and don't let them go.
Because one day they just might be gone.
And it will be too late to turn back.[/center]
Name: Mowgli
Reason: Used to be a kitty-pet
Gender: Tom
Age: Sixty-two Moons
Clan: None
Rank: Loner
Short Appearance:
A scrawny white tom with tabby patches and green eyes.
Appearance:
».pelt;
Fluffy isn't apart of Mowgli's appearance. He's mangy, matted and smells of fish and dust. His tabby spots are growing dull from old age and his white is getting more and more dirty. The fur itself looks thin and barely there but this holds its thickness. His tabby markings wrap around his face creating a short of mask for him. His full tail is wrapped in tabby markings as well. Other than the tabby spot above his tail on his lower back Mowgli is completely white. His left paw is stained blood red from ripping a dewclaw out.
».eyes;
Mowgli's eyes are very pale in color and hold the gaze of an older cat. They show of happier times, of the past. Always looking as if he'll pass any time now, he still boldly puffs out his chest and tries to look furious. Poor Mowgli is going slightly blind. His hearing isn't as good either. But his eyes seem to get worse as each season passes.
».built;
There is seriously nothing to Mowgli. He has little muscles that don't show. His ribs aren't showing but have in the past. He looks easy to break and probably is. Many can tell he isn't a fighter or even a threat to anyone other than maybe himself. Mowgli's paws look sore as he walk but doesn't complain or say anything to anyone if they ask. He can only hunt what is small and on the ground. He isn't a fast runner and tends to lose his prey when hunting.
Personality:
».loyalty;
He isn't loyal to anyone. He has no one but himself and even then he isn't even loyal to himself. If he was he wouldn't have left his kitty-pet life for a life that is now slowly killing him. He dearly wants to make friends with the Clan cats but the only way he believes he can do that is by staying off their land. When he lived in a barn kits used to roam around and pretend to sneak up on Mowgli. He loved the kits to death. If you ask him who he's loyal to he'll say life. Because even though it'll kill him one day he enjoys every minute of it.
».laid-back;
Mowgli is such a laid-back sweet tom. Never had a loved one and lost his family, but he's still upbeat and taking life one paw step at a time. He likes to show kindness to others even if they don't give it back. Why you may ask? Well, I am not really sure. Maybe it's because Mowgli believes in "treat others they way you want to be treated". He never asks for anything in return because he likes giving better than getting.
».overall;
Overall you can say Mowgli is a wise old cat with much determination running through his veins. He's happy and not at all aggressive. He doesn't scare easily but since his hearing is going he gets startled from time to time. He is weak physically but his kind, strong personality makes up for it. Mowgli is not a threat to anyone and probably would eat grass instead of mice if it tasted good.
History:
Mowgli was born a kitty-pet in a litter of himself and his two brothers. His parents, Shelly and Grim were owned by breeders. They were an older couple but still young enough to have kits. Mowgli and his two brothers were their last litter. Grim was a grumpy old tabby that was actually a very loving cat but Shelly was mean and ignored her kits most of the time. Shelly was given away when the kits were old enough to eat at least soft food. Mowgli's brother Tipper was a playful rambunctious kit and was the second to leave. Fig was quiet and relaxed but always wanted attention. He was the third to go.
Grim grew older as did Mowgli and soon Grim was gone but to never return. Mowgli was never taken away or even bred for that matter. The breeders sold everything they had except for Mowgli to go live on a farm. Mowgli grew friendly with surrounding strays and other kitty-pets and learned about the Clan cats. Mowgli was more interested in just living in the wild himself. He left his home with great sadness but knew his house folk would be alright. Mowgli did great within the first year, and the next, and the next. He didn't ask for any help and took shelter from the cold in an abounded barn near by.
But as he grows older the cold is getting to him. He is in search for a friendly Clan who'll help him in his last few months or even the next year of life that he has left.
