The Four Clans Gazette
---Issue 18

Welcome: Stickpaw is our newest member, who joined ShadowClan!
Congrats: Dawnbreak is our newest warrior, from ShadowClan as well!

IMO
For this IMO, many users PMed me an answer to this question: Do you like the ideas of themes for some issues? If so, what are some fun theme ideas for future issues? Whats been your favorite themed issue so far (tenth issue, Easter issue, meddie cat issue)? Here are their answers!

Twigstorm: Oh I know a theme! Veterans issue! You know the one for all those members that have been here for a long time and they are still here!!!

Ebonycloud:Well, we could have a leader issue. All devoted to the leaders from the books and the forum. =D My favorite themed issue was the med cat one =D Here are a few ideas for some themes: Apprentice Issue, Loner Issue, Rogue Issue, Deputy Issue, perhaps even one for a tribute to all of the old RPs!!! XD

Night: Hrm...the meddie cat issue was great! ^_^ I dunno...you could have a theme for each holiday, but then, I bet you already thought of that. Maybe... a Warriors villain theme?

Bubbleshine: Theme: You could have a traitor-themed issue? With Tigerstar, Hawkfrost, Mudclaw, etc. You could interview Wolf about why he became a traitor to his clan? =\ It sounds like fun.

Shadowstorm: My favorite themed one would have to be this one; the one with Spottedleaf as Cat of the Issue. She was the best medicine cat and Fireheart lover ever. *dislikes Sandstorm*

The next IMO: If you were going to have kits and you wanted to name one after a cat you adored, which one would you choose? For example, if you loved Spottedleaf, you could name your female Spottedpaw! Send your thoughts to Moonstar, and your answer most likely will appear in the next issue! Please do not post your answer, PM it to me. ^_-
Like a theme someone suggested? PLEASE send some fan mail!

User Interview!
Bubbleshine is our interviewer! So where it says TFCG, just imagine Bubbleshine, because she is the real one doing interviews now. ;) And this interview was done when Tabbystripe was still a kittypet.

TFCG: Hey, Tabbystripe! Or should I say Stripes? What caused you to make the drastic change from a WindClan Medicine cat, to a Kittypet?
Stripes: Well, I'm not really completely sure about that myself. I just felt like becoming a kittypet. I loved being a medicine cat, but I thought it was kind of cool how we could become Outside Cats now. I think I also got lonely, I mean Fireheart and I's apprentice has been inactive, and Fireheart's a really great friend, we talk all the time, but she's been inactive, too, and more of my friends, like Ebonycloud, one of the first people I met here, left, too. So I'm not sure what made me do it, but I had been feeling lonely, so I just went to join the other loners and rogues, and now there's a few kittypets.
TFCG: I understand... Maybe I should switch soon, too! Would you recommend it to other members?
Stripes: Well, I find kittypet life nice. I'd probably recommend it to most members, just I think a few, not many, may like being a loner, or in a rogue pack. It's a pretty free type of life, and its fun to be able to draw and customize our home and what we eat, and also give our characters a collar. :P
TFCG: Haha. I'd like to see your house and house folk. It sounds like it'd be great for the creative cat. Is there anything you miss out on by being a Kittypet?
Stripes: Well, I'm very active in the WindClan roleplay, but its not very active anymore, since Fireheart's been inactive. WindClan's been pretty inactive, for example I tried to schedule a meeting where members of WindClan could come to my den and talk about what's happening in their lives, and discuss issues, but funny enough I waited in my den, refreshing the page and no one showed up, so nothing really happens that I miss out on, few people are very active there. XP
TFCG: Well it sounds like a Kittypet life is the life for you. Thanks for the interview, and I'm glad you enjoy your new life. =]
Stripes: Thank you! I enjoyed the interview! :D wee

Fan Mail!
Dear TFCG,
I can't even say how AWESOME this thing is! I love reading everything, especially the IMO's and comics. I've re-read each one so many times!!

Ask Cinderpelt!

Dear Cinderpelt,
I like my X's best friend and he likes me, I want to ask him out but I don't know if I should since it's his best friend.
Help please.
From,
Anonymous

Dear Anonymous,
Do you really like him? That is my only question. If your feeling for him is really strong then try it. If you still want a friendship with your ex then it might not be a good idea... I dont know how he will react thought. If your ex has a quick temper and you know he would snap, then it might ruin his friends relationship. Why dont you try talking to your ex? See if he is cool about it. Maybe just having him understand is enough. If you arent on good terms with your ex then I would say dont talk to him. Instead talk to the boy you like. See if he will talk to his friend. I am sorry if this wasnt that helpful.
Always concerned,
Cinderpelt

Cat of the issue!
Spottedleaf

Seasons of Love [In Firestars Perspective]
By Bubbleshine

Oh, the brightness of New-Leaf.
It used to shine in her eyes as it reflects off the lake.

Oh, the smell of Green-Leaf.
It used to waver around me when she was near. Filling my nose with her lingering scent.

Oh, the colors of Leaf-Fall.
It resembled the many colors in her pelt.

Oh, the cold of Leaf-Bare.
The feelings I had when she left. It froze my heart. I swore never to love again.

Lonely Spotted
By Shadowstorm

From up above,
I watch my love.

Ginger fur, green eyes,
perfect purr, no lies.

Fire alone can save the Clan,
always has, always can.

We walk different ways,
yet I still count the days.

Firestar, through thick and thin...
will our love begin again?

Breed Busterz
Todays Breed Busterz is
Sokoke

Background Information:The Sokoke is native to Kenya, and the name Sokoke is a reference to the area where they were found, a rainforest on the Kenyan coast. In 1978, horse breeder Jeni Slater discovered a litter of the kittens on her property and raised them as pets. One of Slaters guests, Gloria Moeldrup, became interested in the cats and took a pair home to Denmark, where she began breeding them. Although they have a wild appearance, resembling a cheetah or ocelot, the Sokokes DNA identifies them as domestic cats.

Fun Facts:
·         Enjoys bananas and other fruits. Whos up for a smoothie?
·         They may be related to the African Wildcat.
·         It doesnt shed much, but loves being brushed.
·         Its an incredibly rare breed.
·         Very social breed. It will easily get along with other cats and dogs. No catfights here!
