Cat Cert: Dapple
Why?: Dapple is a tree nerd - which is to say, he's got a passion for trees and plants. He tends believes in the concept that trees are in fact animals, rather than plants, because they seem to change with the seasons and grow older/bigger with age. They even bleed when they're harmed, though their blood is of a different color and much stickier (sap.) He has come to TreeClan with an express interest in becoming a medicine cat apprentice, so that he can understand plants better and learn how they could benefit the cats in TreeClan.
Sunflight flicked her ears in surprise when Dapple approached and declared that trees were the same creature as cats - she'd always valued trees and treated them with the same respect that she would've given a cat, but she had not considered it from the manner that Dapple was proposing. More than that, at his interest at becoming a medicine cat apprentice, she found herself composing herself. Their current medicine cat wasn't yet a medicine cat, but still an apprentice himself. There had been some discussion of Littleflower training him with the split, but was Errol ready to take on an apprentice with the knowledge he had?
"You may join TreeClan as a warrior apprentice, for the time being." She eventually told the tomcat. "I must discuss with Errol, our healer, to see if he's willing to take on an apprentice at this time. If this is acceptable to you, then follow me. I'll find someone to show you around."
Dapple has been approved to join as an Apprentice of TreeClan. Go find him a mentor and get him certed appropriately. Remember to post his form with his mentor in Leader's Den to have it approved, once his TreeClan cert is dropped off! I will discuss with
@Blinded By Silence to determine the matter of Errol taking on a medicine cat apprentice, shortly.

Cat Cert: Stormcloud
Why?: Stormcloud is a loner who is tired of being alone. She recently came into a relationship with Flamepelt, who is already a TreeClan cat and upon her own decision, is trying to join the Clan to be with him. She acknowledges to Sunflight, once she is granted the audience with the TreeClan leader, that she must not favor Flamepelt above the rest of the Clan and must instead put her Clanmates before herself, if she wishes to join. She is a capable cat who lived with her siblings, and then on her own and now seeks to be apart of a larger group - and someone who can contribute to the betterment of TreeClan, either in numbers or in skill.
Sunflight hadn't realized that Flamepelt had taken on a mate, but she was happy to see the spitfire tomcat settling down - in whatever capacity he might be able to. Dipping her head, she welcomed the dark she-cat into her Clan. It was a good thing that TreeClan was already so plentiful when it came to warriors, as there seemed to be an influx of apprentices who needed mentors lately!

Cat Cert: Zigzag
Why?: Zigzag loves to run, to climb, to adventure! She has long wanted to be apart of something, to belong, to explore and create and - well, you get the picture. She's met cats who she's wanted to take along with her journey, but they couldn't keep up, or more likely weren't willing to compromise their preferred lifestyle for hers. Now, however, she's coming to TreeClan willing to compromise her lifestyle for theirs! She'll be a good apprentice-warrior-cat, she promises! Can she join? Can she - can she - can she? Also - can her boyfriend join too???
My, my, Zigzag was certainly an energetic she-cat! Sunflight would have to find her a suitable mentor who was able to take that energy and push it towards productivity to the Clan, she thought. Maybe Riversong? Or Talonfang?
"Send your companion in to see me, but you, Zigzag, are welcome to join TreeClan. We shall see if your..." What was the word Zigzag had used?
Boyfriend? "Your friend is meant to be here too."

Cat Cert: Brawn
Why?: Truth be told, he misses having a tight knit family deep down inside. Though he seemed resistant to the idea at first, outwardly, until Zigzag eventually convinced him otherwise. He is loyal, to a fault, and doesn't intend to leave her side any time soon. He would be a great asset because of this, and his sheer size and muscle. After all, Brawn is definitely a way to describe the burly big tom cat. He might be less adept in the trees, but it won't stop him from defending those of his newfound clan with fervor.
Shortly after seeing Zigzag, her companion joined Sunflight and she found herself staring up at the large tomcat. Many of the cats in TreeClan were lithe, they needed to be to treewalk, but the promise of having a large, muscular cat as added protection from predators was very encouraging. Sunflight reflected on how it would've been wonderful to have Brawn while those pesky raccoons invaded TreeClan and her mind was made up.
"You're welcome here, Brawn. Zigzag ought to be waiting outside. My deputy, Riversong, can show you two around the camp and we'll settle on your mentors and start your training in the morning."
