Now I know that Scourge is considered ‘Overrated’ but that doesn’t give me a reason to not love him! The message here is that you can love whoever you want, it doesn’t matter if they are overrated or not, because that doesn’t make them bad. Always remember that you are the only one that can control yourself, don’t let other people change that.

My first reason is his past,
I hate Socks and Ruby and you all know why. Tigerpaw almost killed him, if it wasn’t for Bluestar, he’d be dead before he was even evil. His brother and sister bullied him and that was the entire reason he actually ran away, I’ll put this into words from the book. “And you know what happens to unwanted kittens?” “They get thrown, in the river.” Said by Ruby. I honestly feel bad for him, and he is given a very valid and strong reason to become who he is.

My second reason is is success
For my second reason, I’ll be discussing all the amazing things that Scourge has done in his life. He fought off Tigerstar in a CLEARLY unfair fight. Tigerstar’s advantage: Nine lives, Leader, Has trained for moons, Is stronger, Is a warrior.
Scourge’s Advantage: None exept being tiny.
As you can see, Scourge did amazing things even before I haven’t moved on to my next example.
He scared a dog with his SHADOW. The cats weren’t even able to fight it but all of a sudden a tiny black cat, formerly a kittypet with a white paw shows up and finishes what they were trying to to for many moons in just a few seconds. Now THAT’S impressive.

My third reason is his absoloute cuteness and his unique fur
Now normally you’d see a black cat, Scourge is a black cat with a paw gone wrong, and it’s hilarious. He was the one who started the whole ‘Dog teeth in a collar’ thing and I love him for it, don’t you agree that he has a great eye for fashion?

These are all my reasons why Scourge is not OVERRATED. In my opinion, he did a lot to earn the popularity that he has. I hope you enjoyed,
FAREWELL
