Sheepheart's Links
They're secretly mates.
They'd always been close friends and visited eachother regularly despite being in different clans, but they grew closer after the epidemic, having lost many cats they cared about. (especially Willowfoot, who had been Silentvoice's mate, along with Sheepheart's friend)

Sheepheart and Rabbitclaw are a combination between brothers and best friends. They care deeply for eachother, and would do anything for eachother in a heartbeat.

At a time where Sheepheart didn't have many cats he was close to, Rabbitpaw came into his life. Taking care of Rabbitpaw's wounds, he soon grew close to the strange cat. Sheepheart had never been close to his biological brother, and Smokechaser had grown distant from him since becoming deputy, so Rabbitpaw filled a hole in Sheepheat's life that had long been empty.
Unlike most cats, Rabbitpaw doesn't mind Sheepheart's endless chattering, and actually thinks being a medicine cat (and learning about different herbs and their appliances) is cool. Smokechaser has always listened to Sheepheart blab about herbs, but Sheepheart knew that he didn't share the same fervor for herbs that Sheepheart does. Having someone who is just as passionate about being a medicine cat, and about herbs, is something Sheepheart has never had before.
Sheepheart and Rabbitclaw both confide in eachother regularly and enjoy spending time together.

After Rabbitpaw had been badly wounded from a fox, Sheepheart (a cat Rabbitpaw had never met) healed him singlehandedly even after his clan was against it. Even in the begining when Rabbitpaw was difficult, scared and untrusting and perhaps a bit volatile- Sheepheart was patient with him.
Eventually Rabbitpaw realized Sheepheart was a cat who could be trusted, and got to know him better. Rabbitpaw soon found out that Sheepheart was a kind cat with an interesting sense a humor and the endearing abillity to talk about herbs for hours. Over time, whether that time was just them hanging out in the medicine den, or Sheepheart teaching Rabbitpaw about herbs as his mentor, the two cats only grew closer.

Sheepheart and Owlshade were apprentices at around the same time, and Owlshade was always in the group that had a time making fun of Sheepheart. Owlshade was among one of the first to start the trend in fact.

Sheepheart has noticed Owlshade's change in behavior, but still doesn't like being around her for obvious reasons. While Sheepheart doesn't hate her, Owlshade still makes him uncomfortable, and he tries avoid interacting with her if he can. You can't erase the past, and it's hard for Sheepheart to stop being scared of her after being scared of her for much of his young life.

She's now realized how immature and unwarranted her past actions were, but has never apologized to Sheepheart. She does however make an effort to call out other cats who continue to put him down.
They were close friends before Ratpaw died. Ratpaw was among one of Sheepheart's few friends (who were his age) when he was growing up.

Sheepheart is Fogbreath's nephew, but Sheepheart always thought of Fogbreath as his mother. (Considering that Sheepheart's mom died, and his father didn't make any effort to raise him)

Sheepheart and Smokechaser are close friends Sheepheart see's Smokechaser as a really cool older brother.

Smokechaser has been the only consistently good thing in Sheepheart's life. Sheepheart grew up with Smokechaser, they were friends as kits, as apprentices, and are still currently. Even when the rest of the apprentices and warriors made fun of Sheepheart, Smokechaser never did so, and tried to stop them to the best of his ability.
Smokechaser is optimistic when it hard for Sheepheart to be, always cheers Sheepheart up when he's down, and listens to Sheepheart with genuine interest whenever he blabs about herbs. Sheepheart thinks Smokechaser is a really cool guy and a fantastic warrior, and is grateful to have him in his life (although skeptical as to why Smokechaser continues to be friends with him).
During the epidemic, they bothed leaned on eachother as well, Smokechaser having lost his brother Whitefoot, and Sheepheart his aunt Fogbreath and friend Ratpaw.
After Smokechaser became deputy, and took on new responsibillities, they grew a bit more distant, but came back together when Rabbitpaw joined the clan.

Smokechaser has always liked Sheepheart and doesn't understand why other cats don't. Rephrase: he does, but he thinks they're stupid for not liking Sheepheart anyways. Sure, Sheepheart is awkward, a little obsessed with herbs, clumsy, and softhearted, but why should those traits be bad things? Smokechaser thinks Sheepheart's softspoken and honest attitude is charming, his dedication to his job respectable, and his intensive knowledge of herbs impressive. Sheepheart is an empathetic genuine cat and everyone else is missing out. He's also really fun to tease and gets flustered easily, which Smokechaser enjoys. Smokechaser is very protective of Sheepheart and will call out anyone who makes fun of him.
During the epidemic, they bothed leaned on eachother as well, Smokechaser having lost his brother Whitefoot, and Sheepheart his aunt Fogbreath and friend Ratpaw. Although no one could ever replace Whitefoot, during this time Smokechaser realized how much he liked Sheepheart, and that he'd actually been thinking of Sheepheart as another brother this whole time.
After Smokechaser became deputy, and took on new responsibillities, they grew a bit more distant, but came back together when Rabbitpaw joined the clan.

Cicadapaw has always looked up to Sheepheart, and sees him as a sort of her secondary mentor. When Cicadapaw was growing up, Sheepheart always made time to visit with the kits in the nursery and tried to brighten up their days despite the hardships of the epidemic. She thinks Sheepheart is a endlessly kind and dedicated cat, and it's a shame that others in the clan don't see that. Cicadapaw often goes to Sheepheart for guidence if she is having an emotional issue or needs to think something through, because while Sheepheart may have a jolly yet anxious disposition, many fail notice how insightful and deep he is.
Cicadapaw has always been facinated with herbs and medicine cat duties as well, and would have wanted to be Sheepheart's apprentice had Rabbitpaw not claimed the post before her. Even so, she still had Sheepheart teach her some herb stuff, and she may as well be the tertiary medicine cat at this point
