Fan ArticlesLoonsong shares their take on the classic territory dispute between ThunderClan and RiverClan.
Hello!! I am back again with my fourth article. Does Sunningrocks belong to Thunderclan? Or do they belong to Riverclan? read my article to find out my opinion. I hope you enjoy!!
1) Sunningrocks
I trust that all of you know what Sunningrocks (Sunning rocks) is. But for those of you who don’t, here is a quick summary. From what I understand, Sunningrocks is a group of rocks that are always warmed by the sun, making them the perfect place to relax, especially in leafbare. The rocks used to be in the river, making them part of Riverclan territory. Then, one year, the sun dried up some of the water, leaving the rocks partly on land, making them on Thunderclan territory. The two clans are constantly battling over the rocks.
2) Both sides
Before I tell you my opinion on which clan these rocks belong to, let’s get some evidence/information from both sides. Here are some quotes/scenes from each clan.
Thunderclan
” the sun dried up the water, so clearly Starclan wants us to have them”
“Oakheart! How dare you hunt in our territory? The Sunningrocks belong to ThunderClan!”
“We’ve been fighting over Sunningrocks for years, some cats say that the rocks were in the river once, so RiverClan thinks of them as theirs. I don’t know about that—they’ve been on ThunderClan land as long as any cat in the Clans now can remember. But RiverClan won’t admit they’re ours.”
Riverclan
“it’s a matter of honor that we don’t let Thunderclan take what’s been ours since the dawn of the clans”
“these rocks belong to Riverclan and always have”
Thunderclan gathered together and steered their wounded clanmates away.
“watchout Thunderclan, no one takes sunningrocks and gets away with it”
3) my opinion
in my opinion, sunningrocks has always belonged to Riverclan. But that’s just my opinion, and i can’t speak for anyone else.
Hope you enjoyed this article, and let me know your opinion in the comments. Does Sunningrocks belong to Thunderclan, Riverclan, or should they just share it? let me know in the comments, and thank you for reading!! hope you have a good day!!

Great article!! 😀
Well, it doesn’t matter anymore 😂 (you know what I mean), but I did always think they should compromise. ThunderClan gets it during leaf-bare and leaf-fall (extra hunting), and RiverClan gets it in new-leaf and greenleaf (so they can bask) or vice-versa. At least, that would be best for all involved.
Totally agree!
Great article!
Great article! Personally I think they should belong to ThunderClan…. But I’d be totally okay if they belonged to RiverClan. (Not like it really matters anymore……… rip sunningrocks)
I don’t know
I honestly think it’s kinda funny that they are fighting over rocks. But, i think they should just share the rocks.
Great article!
Riverclan had them in the first place. Why would Thunderclan need them anyways?
To hunt. That’s what they say anyways.
Great article!!! I personally believe they should compromise. ThunderClan can have Sunningrocks during leaf-bare and leaf-fall, so they have enough prey, which I always saw as the main reason ThunderClan wanted Sunningrocks. And RiverClan has the rocks during newleaf and Greenleaf, so they can bask in the sun.
Great article!! I always thought they should share the rocks. •it doesn’t matter anymore•. {rip sunningrocks}
Honestly, I think it would’ve been better if they had just shared the rocks. RiverClan can use it to bask (they have prey year round, even if leaf bare (mostly, as long rivers don’t freeze)) while ThunderClan can hunt there (they don’t eat fish)
I find it funny a bunch of cats fight over warm rocks, this is how the whole series started.
Great article! 😀 You explained your points nicely C:
I feel sunningrocks should belong to RiverClan too, though I’m biased because I like RiverClan more than ThunderClan xD Honestly, though, it could have easily belonged to both. It would have prevented a lot of loss, and it’s not that hard to share some rocks.
Sunningrocks may have once belonged to RiverClan but I think ThunderClan uses it better since RiverClan only uses it to lie down in the sun. ThunderClan uses it to catch prey. But, that doesn’t necessarily mean it belongs to ThunderClan because Mudfur won it back forever BUT technically Adderfang had no right to make such an agreement without his leader’s permission so… Sunningrocks belongs to ThunderClan
