Shifting Tides

General info:
The story takes place on an isolated island off of the eastern Kamchatkan coast. The island, and its lab was used to study the effects of radiation and various other things on cats. I do not know why they were doing this, just imagine the classic evil scientist experiments with green goo and whatnot.

Eventually, a mutated cat, Bartholomew, escaped and an evacuation was ordered. The island has been left uninhabited since then, and the research done there covered up. Despite the circumstances, the escaped cats have gone on to prosper.

Modern day, the cats on the island have created colonies for themselves. The Raspberries live in the mire to the west, the Blackberries live in the forest to the north, and the Cloudberries live on the eastern shore and the caves spanning beneath. All the colonies follow a religion in which they worship Bartholomew, who they consider to be their savior.

Beyond that, all around the island are 'strays', as they are called, cats who are unaffiliated with the colonies. There are also 'wanderers' cats who, while not a direct member of any colony, spend much of their time in and around them.

While this story was originally inspired by Warrior Cats, it is not the same. I have added many differentiating things to the lore and even revamped it specifically to move away from Warrior Cats.
