Traditions & Cerimonies

Death
Although they used to have vigils and other traditions for cats who died, now they allow cats who were close to them to share tongues with them one last time before they will be left in the center of camp for two nights. Cats who want to may sit in vigil although it isn't considered necessary to be there and it isn't considered impolite to miss a vigil to someone close to you.

Rather than your mourning being a tradition, they have a ceremony in StarClan to welcome the new cats. This started when a clans leader had died and most of the clan sat around to mourn. During the night, they were attacked and many cats died after they were caught off guard. So the new leader spoke to StarClan and they agreed it was unsafe and risky, so they started StarClan ceremonies rather than death vigils.
