Age: 12 moons
Gender: Tom
Personality:
Snail is a carefree tom with a happy go lucky attitude. He may look all buff and scary but he is actually pretty lazy. Not exactly a gentle giant, but close enough. He likes to goof off and enjoys flirting with the ladies, although he is never serious about it. He is a generally happy cat who get's along with everyoneDescription:
Although he is extremely loyal he can be quite blind to people's flaws and easily influenced by cats, he is a pushover. Let's just say he is not the brightest cat. He will believe almost everything. When he is "on your side" he defends it fiercely without question. He often dives into a situation without much thought, which leads him into trouble.
Snail truly likes all cats, but if you mess with Snail to much, for he'll often forgive you, he won't be pleased. If you also pick on his friends, or you convince Snail that they did, then he isn't afraid to stand up for that. He certainly isn't a coward, and will fight for what he thinks. Even when he knows he is losing or even wrong, he won't back down because for his pride and stubbornness.
He is a large cat, muscular and tall. A t least taller then most. He is a dark, brown, tabby tom. His belly is a lighter shade of brown, while his upper part is a darker shade. Snail's face also has a white patch on the chin. His fur is long and without proper care it often becomes tangled. Snail's eyes are a light shade of green.History:
Snail is often described as burly and intimidating due to his size although he is often seen with a goofy expression on his face.

Snail's mother was younger then most cats when she got pregnant for the first time. It was just a one night stand and he left soon after. So she was left alone, young, and very inexperienced. She made due with what she had. At the same time she didn't really want the kits. She wanted to go back to her simple life a as a loner.Other:
When she finally did give birth, it was in a makeshift den in an alleyway. There were three kits, two toms and a she kit. The she kit was very sickly and died soon after birth. Only the two toms remained. She never bother to name them, she just wanted to wean them real quick and be done with this whole motherhood thing.
So Snail and his brother grew up without names and with little attention. But they didn't mind so much, they still had food and could keep each other company. In fact their bond was extremely strong because of that.
Then, finally, Snail's mom decided she wanted to be a mother and take care of her kits. She took them for a hunting trip and things were looking well. But as they returned form the hunting trip a dog attacked them. The mom, still young and inexperienced ran immediately up a tree, leaving her sons without realizing it.
Snail had the chance of escaping but he refused to leave his brother. Together they tried to fend off the dog, the two brothers even managed to throw in some good counter attacks, but this was a starving stray.The dog bite down and threw Snail to the side before mauling his brother to death. The young mother finally snapped to her senses and tried to save her already dead kit.
She attempted to fend off the dog, bravely clawing and biting. Finally the dog let go of the kit and attacked the mother. Snail, didn't know what to do, finally he went up to his brother, who was already dead. Snail, in a fit of rage and pure stupidity then charged at the dog, wanting to avenge his brother. By this time the mother had managed to escape the dog and had hoped her kits found safety, when she realized what Snail was doing she ran back towards the scene and threw herself infront of Snail. She never stood a chance and was brutally killed and eaten. Snail was forgotten as he was thrown in a pile of garbage. He awoke the next day to find his family dead. Sad and alone, he ran off.
Snail, moved to another part of the city and lived off garbage cans and leftovers. This worked well but food began to get scarce, people were no longer leaving their trash. So he taught himself to hunt, i was slow business, but he managed to get by.
A few months went by and Snail still did not have a name. While digging through trash, he heard giggling. An extremely pretty she cat was staring at him, giggling. She was young, pretty and around her neck was an expensive collar. Curiously, she asked about loner life.
Snail was happy to answer, especially since she was so pretty. When he explained that he had no name the kittypet was astonished. She immediately named him after the first thing she saw, a snail. And they immediately became close friends and everyday they would meet by the corner.
They met for a weeks until one day she failed to show up. Snail waited for her for the entire day. A moon went by and still no sign of her. He finally gave up on his friend. Snail decided he needed a change and went to the more wilder areas to live, the loner lands.
