Hollowpaw
~<>~
26/200
4 moons || he/him || ThC medicine cat apprentice || Silk Spinner, Dream Walker
brown, masked classic tabby w/ low white; titanite eyes

One of a medicine cat's many duties was checking on the young and old of the clan - or so Hollowpaw had been told. Did he want to deal with old farts or tiny sticky kittens (who might only be a few moons younger than him, but that wasn't the point here)? No. He didn't. Was he going to anyway because that was in his job description? Yes, he was.

It wasn't even a moon ago when Hollowpaw had been sleeping in this den with the queens and kits, and the smells and walls were as familiar as his own four paws. He doesn't even have to duck to get into the den, still being kit-sized himself.

"Hey," he calls as he enters, blinking while his eyes adjust to the low light in the den. "Everyone in here healthy?" A simple question with a simple yes or no answer. Hopefully the answer would be 'yes', because even if there were sick cats in here, Hollowpaw probably wouldn't know what to do about it. Even as the words left his mouth, though, his nose twitched, detecting a slightly acrid, sour scent in the air... that didn't smell normal. Frowning, brows furrowed, white tipped paws carry him towards one of the kits, sniffing her to make sure his nose wasn't playing tricks on him. It wasn't, and that was probably bad.

"Skykit," he says, "have you been feeling well lately?" Even as he asks, he's lifting his nose to the air, trying to detect if any other cat has the same sour scent of sickness. Cinderkit carries a similar smell on her pelt, and that's concerning. He looks to their mother, brows furrowed. "How long have they been like this? I think Skykit and Cinderkit are both sick, if that's what this smell means, but I'm not sure with what."

@Kaida
Weepingwillow looked up, her eyes filled with worry. "I-it started last night for Skykit, I thought she was just complaining because she has bad allergies. But then Cinderkit...... a-and neither of them have woken up." Weepingwillow fretted. "It's whitecough,I can smell it, it's whitecough and I don't know what to do." Weepingwillow paniced, her blue gaze filled with stress, worry, and protectivness. Weepingwillow looked up as Nightwhisper padded into the den, "Weepingwillow, shh. Your going to scare Emberkit. Nightwhisper soothed his mate, "They'll be fine. Remember when I had whitecough? Just treat them just like that. I believe one of the herbs they used was...... gosh it smelled really good... uhm... oh yes! Catnip! I remember being fed it when I was sick. Catnip does the trick...... on where to find it is the problem." Nightwhisper meowed. Notcing Emberkit looked up with wide eyes, Weepingwillow leaned down to lick her kits ears. "It's ok little one, your sisters will be fine. There just a bit stuffy and the medicine cats will care for them.... I promise." Weepingwillow purred gently, stroking his head with her tail gently, Weepingwillow rested her gaze on the medicine cat as she promised her son. Her gaze seemed to plead for her to be able to keep the promise.

Skykit stirred in her restless sleep.
