Prey And Its Worth
Every form of prey can only feed so many cats before it disappears entirely! The bigger the prey, the more cats it can feed/the more cats can share it! However, this also means that in a time with so little food to be found, one must make precautions that noone starves...

Food Scraps - 1 cat
Mouse - 1 cat
Rat - 1 cat
Squirrel - 2 cats
Jackdaw - 2 cats
Pigeon/Dove - 2 cats
Seagull - 2 cats
Crow - 2 cats
Ravens - 3 cats
Vultures - 4 cats
"But what if only one cat eats it?" you ask. Well, that's just fine! You won't spoil it for others if your cat goes after prey that could feed many. As long as they put it back on the cache, other cats can eat it too. If only two cats want a vulture, 2 more cats are able to eat it later. Your cat can also eat more than their due fill, so note if they overate in your post.
However! That does not mean that prey is on the cache indefinitely. Older prey is listed at the bottom while newer prey is listed at the bottom. Every Friday, the bottom 3 items in the cache will go rancid! They can still be eaten - but not without consequences. The cat is heavily at risk of getting sick and vomiting, getting a disease, etc. and its severity depends on how long the prey has been left there!
Something else that will happen every Friday: Hunger! Every time your cat eats, tag Admin. Your cat's hunger level is tracked in the allegiance.
Every week, your cat's hunger is brought down by 20, and each cat comes with 100 health points. Everything your cat eats is worth 10. If your cat gets to 50 hunger, you'll be notified that your cat is hungry. When they get to 20, you'll be notified that your cat is starving and Will die. If they don't eat after that, they will indeed pass away.
REGARDING NEW KITTENS
Kittens under the age of 2 months are still being nursed by their mother. For them, their health goes down by 25% each week, thus they have one less week than the adults to be fed. Their mother doesn't need to be the one who feeds them, so fosters can step in if the mother is for some reason unavailable (such as inactivity or death).
