I did.
From the ones I can remember: Crowfeather: he was scrappy, rangy, DARK GREY, angstyyy, BROKEN Stonefur: gray fur and blue eyes just did it for me back then also he wasn’t broad-shouldered Thistleclaw: actually wasn’t the books that got me into him but an amv called “Youth”. His design was very stripy and he had this smirk and I think it was definitely that video that got me interested in him. spottedleafs heart wasn’t out back then but thinking back it was def just his aesthetic (at least as it was portrayed in the video) that got me into him Jayfeather: GRAY. BLUE EYES. POWERS. CYNICAL AND JADED. MED CAT. LOVE INTEREST HE CONVENIENTLY COULDN’T EVER BE WITH. Scourage: got the manga. loved how cute he looked. Graystripe: also got the manga. I think I had a thing for the color gray. also I remember there were a bunch of videos on YouTube having him and silverstream with heavy fringes and that is an art style that I’ve only recently began to move away from Skyclan: yep the whole clan. basically if a cat was from sky clan they were automatically fascinating to me. I remember liking sol from the manga, sharpclaw got an adorableness boost whenever he was in a scene w cherrywhisker Snowfur: again she never struck me as anything other than bluestar’s sister in the books but the Youth amv changed that because it had her all white with blue eyes, these black ear tips and, wait for it, FRECKLESSS!! Gray Wing & Clear Sky: ok for this one I think I was more in love with their dynamic but I remember making fan art so clearly I must have been feeling something
That’s it for now.

Nope. Because they're cats.
I adore a lot of the cats as the interesting characters they are to me. And want to pet and cuddle them because cats are just that cute, even though these feral ones would for sure claw me if I tried.
But the word crush would be a weird way for me to ever describe my love for (fictional battle) cats and that title made me do a double take lol.
And like, I know the cats from this series are very humanized versions and all that. Still full on cats though.
Edit: In my comment, I'm simply referring to my own take on this matter and in no way want to imply that it's weird or gross to have crushes on fictional characters. Just that I don't have them in this case and it would feel weird for me personally in the context of the characters being (albeit very humanized) cats.

Ugh not the "gross they're cats" comments right away as if a kid having a crush on a character isn't completely innocent lol. this happens every time a thread like this is made
As a kid I thought brambleclaw was the coolest thing ever and might even call it a "crush" in a way. Funny cuz now he's my least favorite probably.

no, ive never found myself harboring a crush on any of them lmo. while i might enjoy their human-like traits. the idea of romantic feelings towards them doesn't register simply because they're, well, cats.
But im not saying it's bad that people do! It's just something I've never felt towards them.

Way to twist my words which were just about my own take on this.

kitters & 𝕱𝖑𝖚𝖙𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖋𝖆𝖑𝖑 — let’s not allow this topic to escalate into something worse. I’m sure OP doesn’t appreciate snarky comments on their thread. There’s no reason for this kind of behavior even if it’s just two posts. If you really wish to drag this out, go elsewhere.

I did not mean to derail this thread but also did not appreciate the way my words got twisted by kitters into something that was essentially insulting the OP of it for having crushes on these fictional battle cats. It is not my intention to cause any drama on here though and I apologize if it seemed that way.

No, not really. It’s not really that I think it’s gross or smth, I just never really had one on any of them.

No, mainly because they're cats. I just saw them as cute cats (even Tigerstar and Brokenstar) that I would hug in the streets even though they'd try to maul me.

I don't remember legit crushing on any of the characters; I was something of a Jayfeather fangirl, but I didn't ship him with my own Warriorsona or anything; I just shipped him with a bunch of other canon characters
And then I remember back in the literal snail-mail days of the old forums, when I was like....10 or 11, that the "if you were a warrior, who would be your mate???" threads would pop up from time to time and I would always answer with Lionblaze just to be different from all the other Jayfeather fangirls lol

I myself didn’t have any “crushes”, so to speak, but it was fun seeing their interactions with each other. That was entertaining enough for me.

No but I admired Sol and adored his visual description and then how he was drawn by the artists. He's the og inspo for all effeminate male chars I have now, alongside Scar lion king

Not really a crush, but I used to think that if I were to date someone, I want to meet someone like Briarlight. I admired her personality.

I guess I kinda did? Kinda not? Because of how humanized they acted I imaged them as Nekos when I was younger. I think I had a tiny crush on Firestar and Jayfeather but sadly can't really remember if I did or not since it was a long time ago.

Nope. It just feels weird having a crush on cats, even in books. I do not care what you all say, I don't feel comfortable having a little crush on a WC character
but I do understand that kids can and will have crushes on WC characters, and I will not try to stop that. Just as long as they don't have crushes on actual cats.

Ivypool and Hawkfrost. Also I dare say if I was 8 when ASC was around I would definitely like Nightheart.
oh yeah and one of my primary school friends had a massive crush on Firestar, if we ever had dress up days she would wear orange, it was honestly cute. She asked me when he would die and I responded with the Last Hope and her response was “well, I’m never reading that book.”

Didn’t have a crush on any of these but they’re def good characters. Crow and Jay were interesting when I was reading the series, I never got the Scourge manga but I’m intrigued about his backstory. Also I keep reading Graystripe as Gaystripe help
