I just wanna say, I'm really annoyed with Erin Hunter rn.
At the beginning of CP, Rippleclaw and Timberfur are two of the oldest warriors in the Clan. Fallowtail has her kits, Graypool and Willowbreeze, also at the beginning of CP. Despite that, Graypool goes on to be mates with RIPPLECLAW. RIPPLECLAW, the cat who was old BEFORE SHE WAS BORN. On top of all that, in LH, Graypool eventually dies of old age after moving to the elder's den, while Timberfur is still a warrior. Crookedstar also is noted to be very old.
That's like your grandma dying of old age at 90, but her grandpa is 130 and still healthy.
EXPLAIN ERIN!

Agreed! When I was reading through the spoilers, I kept wondering why certain cats weren't retired/dead yet, since they were full grown/possibly even older warriors, when Crookedstar was young, and it was at the point where Leopardstar, who was younger than Crookedstar, was getting referred to as old. Maybe the river has fountain of youth properties, but only a few cats know where to look, maybe that's why Reedwhisker was a 2 1/2 year old apprentice, because he accidentally stumbled into that section of the river when he was younger lol.

Actually, Graypool didn't die from old age. She died from blunt force trauma caused by Tigerstar. The age thing is also reminiscent of Leopardfoot and Pinestar. Graypool stating that she was starting to feel her age when she retired though did confuse me as there are so many older cats in RC. In fact, her uncle Cedarpelt doesn't even retire until after Graypool's death. And we don't even know what happened to Graypool's mother Fallowtail (Cedarpelt's littermate) as she had retired before Willowbreeze was revealed to be expecting making me believe that she died offscreen. At the same time as Cedarpelt, we also had Timberfur and Piketooth retire. Nothing on Rippleclaw who just seemingly vanished from the story.
