Help doing an insane cats personality for my character site
This cat is sooo far from normal I can’t even figure out how to do the personality. If any ppl are willing to help that’d be amazing.

not exactly on-topic but please don't make the personality ableist or in any way dismissive/disrespectful to people who have mental illnesses. not that you will, just a reminder to attempt kindness and understanding- and do your research about a mental illness before giving it to one of your characters. |

I could help. What exactly does your cat suffer from?

to avoid being incredibly offensive, i'd change - the way you talk about his mental illness. laughing about the 'funny' things someone does as a result of mental illness is extremely inconsiderate and rude. - saying things like "he should've been killed because he was a danger to himself" is horrible. just don't do it. - diagnose him with an actual mental illness. misrepresenting mental illnesses is a big problem in all forms of media, and it's exacerbated when the person who suffers from mental illness isn't diagnosed. - do your research. this is so important and i can't stress this enough. if you don't have a mental illness, you need to actually learn how it works before giving it to one of your characters. |

Re: Help doing an insane cats personality for my character site
Okay so. There are a few flaws to your cat that make it impossible to work. 1. Realistically, if a cat were to be born like this, it would make sense they didn't know how to do anything. Your cat would be as good as still-born because as a kitten, he wouldn't have nursed, nor would he have been able to get to the milk if -- assuming -- he had siblings. He would've been shoved to the side unless mom was gracious enough to keep him and attempt to help. Even if that was the case, he wouldn't have been able to develop the correct skills in general. He wouldn't be able to move therefore lack the muscles to attempt to and when a cat (or any animal) puts weight on their internals for too long, it'll damage them resulting in death. Briarlights situation for example. Although as you made clear, their situation was worse. 2. Even if they were to make it through kithood, the clans wouldn't ever allow them to train. They'd be elders den or medicine cat den bound their entire life. They'd be too much of a liability if they were allowed to train to be a warrior or a medicine cat. It'd be much simplier to just keep them in camp and have cats take turns keeping watch/take care of them. On top of that, even if mentors were alternated their whole life to train him basic needs, that's one less cat to train a different apprentice that could benefit the clan. It wouldn't be worth the clans time. 3. You can have them have whatever mental illness you want as long as it's appropriate, but realistically, this feline could not physically function in the clan resulting in them being just another mouth to have to feed. The clan is capable of caring for them, but in most cases, the cat would be disowned. @Okapi @Crow |

yes, what sus said. as an addition, ftd is not something people/cats are born with- it develops, usually around midlife- thus your cat would probably not have it. |
Re: Help doing an insane cats personality for my character site
I agree that you should do your research on these kinds of topics, but I wanted to give you a personality for him.
He could be introverted, doesn't make friends easily, snappy at others, gets attached to inanimate objects. He could become easily-distracted by said object and refuses to talk to other cats for long periods of time. Does that help @Okapi ? |
