Oh honey, you're a little confused. Spottedleaf was mentored by Thrushpelt before she became the medicine cat apprentice, not a warrior mentor. But hey, we all make mistakes, even the best of us. Just keep those cat facts straight, darling.
They become a warrior at 12 moons, unless there's something stopping them from becoming one (Ex. an injury, blindness, ect. ect.) And they would become a Medicine Cat when either the medicine cat dies, or believes the apprentice is ready to become the Medicine Cat.
You could say they are sharing dreams.
They believe starclan makes them a warrior or a medicine cat
No he is a medicine cat
no, he becomes a medicine cat
Spirits of StarClan, you know every cat by name. I ask you now to take away the name from the cat you see before you, for it no longer stands for what she/he is. By my authority as Clan leader, and with the approval of our warrior ancestors, I give this cat a new name. From this moment forward, he/she shall be known as (insert name here).
When kits become apprentice they do not have vigils, but for the warrior ceremony here is the procedure:The Clan Leader calls a Clan Meeting to appoint a new apprentice and assign a mentor to him/her.The following words are used, by tradition:Leader: (Kit), you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as (new name, ending with "paw"). Your mentor will be (name of warrior or medicine cat). I hope (name of warrior or medicine cat) will pass down all he/she knows to you.The leader calls up the warrior he/she has chosen as a mentor.Leader: (Warrior), you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from (former mentor), and you have shown yourself to be (quality) and (quality). You will be the mentor of (apprentice), and I expect you to pass on all you know to (apprentice).The mentor touches noses with the apprentice and the Clan greets the new apprentice by calling out his/her name. After this, the apprentice will usually go greet their family or go see to their mentor.
because thats the only way to become a warrior
A ceremony consists of an apprentice being accepted as a warrior, or a kit being old enough to become an apprentice. Apprentice to warrior - The apprentice is brought up before the Clan to receive their warrior name and rank from the Clan leader. They must say "I do" to questions asking for their loyalty and courage. The Clan leader then gives the apprentice their new name, and the new warrior will spend the night on camp watch. Kit to apprentice - The kit is brought up before the Clan to receive their apprentice name and rank from the Clan leader. They must say "I do" to questions asking for their loyalty and courage. The Clan leader then gives the kit their new name, and the new kit will move into the apprentice's den.
Well, if Starclan comes to them telling he or she, that it is their destiny to become a medicine cat
You have to be an apprentice first. Then your mentor will train you how to fight and hunt until he/she thinks that you are ready to become a warrior. After that the apprentice will have his/her warrior ceremony and become a warrior.
6 moons. When Brokenstar was leader he made kits go out to be appentices when they weren't ready. Now they live by the code.
