The Nesting Period

Published:
1.1K Views

Description

Pregnant cats go through a period of "nesting," a time which they will spend collecting nice soft materials for their den in preparation for the cubs or kittens that they are expecting. Sunapi's nesting period was... interesting. Clan cats found her often pouncing on birds, only to let them go after she stole a few of their feathers; upsetting treelings when she tried to claw some of their shedded fur off of their tails; and startling clan cats themselves when she tried to steal their shedding fur off their backs. Overcome with the nesting instinct and her new addiction to soft and fluffy things, Sunapi quickly became a nuisance in the clan without meaning to.

The end of this plague came when Sunapi tried to take some fur off of Fessran while she was giving a lesson to her firekeeping students.

It didn't end well.

... After that Sunapi decided she'd done enough nesting. Needless to say, however, her cubs had an extremely soft nest when they finally came into the world.

Haha, you know, when I first read the Harry Potter books, I kept on thinking that Minerva McGonnagal was like Fessran in a human skin.  This picture reminds me of that!
