Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

Family is an important theme in the novel, but not in the traditional way. This is because the idea of family that is developed goes beyond blood relations by turning a clowder into a family that is chosen by its members.

Family is important, but when you are not with them anymore, finding a Clowder and making them his family now was also important to Bushytails. You do what you can to fit in and belong with another group when you leave home.
