Medicine cats can't have mates because it gets in the way of their connection with StarClan.
Well, male cats cannot obviously have kits. In Warriors, it is the same for male and female medicine cats. They cannot have kits whatsoever. EDIT: It also says medicine cats cannot have mates.
Medicine cats cannot have mates or kits. They must see everyone in the Clan equally.
Medicine cats are not allowed to have a mate or kittens.
Well...for one thing, normal warrior cats can have mates. Medicine cats cannot, but some of them have a mate anyway, but not purposely. (Example: Leafpool, Yellowfang...) Warrior cats are pretty much what keeps the clan on its feet though. I mean, you can't have a leader and a medicine cat and make the best out of it. Anyhow, warrior cats do have unfortunate cases. Unlike medicine cats, if they're found on another clan's territory, they're most likely going to be driven back, sometimes after a fight. They hold loads of responsibility, but none like the responsibility of a medicine cat's.
they could have been great mates but jayfeather is a medicine cat according to the warrior code he cant have a mate.
NO! It is against the warrior code for medicine cats to have mates or kits!
Kits and mates would be a huge distraction to medicine cats. If the medicine cat had no apprentice and she got pregnant, then it would be very difficult to continue healing cats, as well as raising/carrying kits. If there was a big battle, instead of going for the heavily wounded first, the medicine cat would go for either their mate or their kits first, even if they are the least wounded.
Briarlight might end up being Jayfeather's apprentice and medicine cats don't have mates. But a lot of people are really wanting her to get am mate and there are rumors about her and Jayfeather being mates.
Yes, Reedwhisker's mate is Willowshine. They are both RiverClan warriors in the Warriors series by Erin Hunter.
they can have a special connection with star clan and knowlegde of healing
