Puffinkit was born in a soggy cardboard box in an alley. His mother and father were apart of a small yet bloodthirsty rogue group who looked down on, and usually got rid of, elders, kits, and queens. Puffinkit's father was a powerful and highly respected cat, so no one dared touch his mate and offspring. As the kit grew older the others were outraged to discover that sometimes Puffinkit's back legs were too stiff to move, but Isla eventually found tricks to help get his legs working again whenever they weren't.
