Rocking Boats

Prolouge
Waves crashed on a small sailboat. On the rocking boat, there were men sleeping in a small room-like place on it, and cats scattered around the wooden deck, sleeping and getting comfortable. Several were soaked, and all had slick glossy fur, bred exactly for loving water.
Most were Bengals, but others were Main-coons, Japanese Bobtails, and many other water-loving breeds. There were tons of Turkish Van, more than Bengals. One shecat, a Norwegian Forest Cat, with a tom, Most likely a Japanese Bobtail, were settled together with two kits. Water occasionally splashed over them, protecting the kits from it with their best ability. They were new-born, and most likely were born just then, which gave the owners no indication that two kits needed to be in their with the other kits.
Morning rose relatively soon, the sailors walking out to see the mother hovering over the kits, and the father with his head dropped. One of the kits had drowned, the mother whining over her remaining kit. The sailor gasped, picking up the dead kit, and sighing. He carried it away, leaving the mother and father with their one living kit.
Chapter 1
"Puddles!" A small kit squeaked. The kit had a stubby tail, a long pelt and orange fur with a white underbelly, and blue eyes. Her mother had brown fur and blue eyes, father an orange pelt with white underbelly, and green eyes, and a stubby tail. A dog, Boykin Spaniel and Otterhound mix, padded around, keeping watch of all the cats. There were many other dogs on the ship as well, but this one, Ronny, tended to watch over the cats like a guard dog. "Careful." His deep voice boomed at the kit. "But Ronny!" The kit whined. "No, Jazzie." He retorted, fluffy ears signaling that was final. All the cats felt he was stronger, and always followed his command.
"Jazzie, please listen to Ronny more respectfully. You'll dishonor our family." The Japanese Bobtail father scoffed to his daughter. "Hon-Or? That stuff that means you're respected?" Jazzie's head cocked. "Yes. Tomorrow is the test to see which shekit is fit to be the new ship's princess. Next in line to be the lead cat. Our family has been leader for years, so keep up this honor." The father muttered.
