These are some fresh-kill ideas you may use, just in case you run out.
Fresh-Kill
Mice - Everyone knows what these are. [Cats]
Rats - Rats are more larger than mice, but are more common to diseases. [Cats]
Rabbits - The Rabbits in Shadowed Destiny are very fast, compared to the unhunted bunnys of the twolegs. They can provide any good meal for any season. [Cats/Wolves]
Pheasants - Colorful, large peathingy-like bird. An beautiful feast for a wolf, too large for a cat, but one must pull out all the feathers first. [Wolves]
Ducks - Not very common in the lands Of Shadowed Destiny, but are a pleasant, rare meal for any. [Cats/Wolves]
Livestock - Clan Cats/Wolves are forbidden to hunt those that belong to the twolegs, as it will soften them for the taste of wild meat. Most rogues/loners hunt them, such as cows, pigs, etc.
Voles - Water Voles are most common. Most cats enjoy a vole, as they are tasty; but wolves, for some reason, dislike them, partly because they are quite small. [Cats]
Magpies - A common meal for any. [Cats/Wolves]
Crows - Crows are common in Shadowed Destiny, but they are the most hard to hunt, since crows are very smart. If caught, they are stringy and less fattening, many of the apprentice's first tests are to try to catch a crow. [Cat]
Raccoons - A very fierce type of prey, it is usually not a good idea to hunt down a mother with it's pups. Cats stay causcious of them. [Wolves]
Squirrels - One of the most common types of prey, they are easy to hunt and provide a full meal. [Cats/Wolves]
- Herd Animals -
Caribou: One of the most common herd animals for wolf packs; easy to hunt and many.
Buffalo: Not found often in the lands of Shadowed Destiny, provides a meal that lasts often a week, but are hard to hunt due to injuries.
Deer: One of the best herd animals, Deer roam most of the land in large numbers. They are easy to bring down, but only lasting a few days.

Characters
Just to give you an normal idea what a wolf/cat looks like, and an simple example for your character. Also some useful info on them.
- Wolves - Intro - Wolves are one of the most common predators of the animal world today. Although they are not as large as a lion, or as small as a cat, they are quite fast and agile. Wolves have great endurance speed, often being able to track down deer, caribou, and elk from long distances. Being smart anscestors of dogs, they have sensitive noses, alert minds, and a interesting personality.
- Character Example - Name: Snowfur Gender: Female Specie: Gray Wolf Age: 3 in human years Appearance: She has a snowy white underbelly, a grey-streaked back, and amber brown eyes. Snowfur also has a small stripe of dark gray on her slim forehead. Picture: Personality: Snowfur was never a mother herself, although she loves to play with cubs. Her patience is excellent, and she often is spirited and playfull.
- Cats - Intro - Cats are related to tigers, lions, the lynx, and many other cat-like creatures. Forest Cats and Pet Cats are the smallest of the Cat family, although this makes them no less wild and alert as their untamed relatives. Cats are extremly fast, flexible, and have a great sense of nimbleness. However, most of them dislike water, and are attracted greatly to fire and catnip. Cats have wide paws, claws that can retract, and an suspicious personality naturally. But they have been known to cope with different species, especially dogs and wolves.
- Character Example - Name: Barkpelt Gender: Male Specie: Cat Age: 2 In human years Appearance: Barkpelt is a distinctive tortoishell male, with a broad and intent face. His fur is dappled orange, yellow, and brown, and his paws are tipped white. He has a light, leaf-green gaze. Picture: http://www.javajane.co.uk/animal/cats/tortoiseshell_cat_watching.jpg If your image is too large, then please add a link. Personality: He is a very serious healer, and never leaves any cat unsupervised, especially if sick. Barkpelt specialises in curing Greencough and Whitecough, which makes him very valuble to his clan. He has a daring personality, is often busy, and dislikes kits and cubs.

Plants And Undergrowth
Many people do not know what a "fern" or "bramble" means, and they often just move on without care. So this guide is just to help you along with a few Plants and Undergrowth.
Undergrowth: Can be dense, is what covers the forest floor. However, a lot of parts are bare. Consists mainly of grasses, ferns, brambles, and bushes. Picture:http://www.euratlas.com/Atlas/russia/undergrowth.jpg
