Tallpoppy

Tallpoppy is a long-legged, light brown tabby she-cat.

Fire and Ice

 * She is a queen.

Midnight

 * She has now moved out of the nursery and is a warrior.

Dawn

 * She is listed again as a queen, and her kits are Toadkit, Applekit, and Marshkit.


 * When ShadowClan is fleeing the camp, it is said Tallpoppy has kits that need to be carried. Wanting to save the kits, Squirrelpaw, a ThunderClan apprentice, helps a tortoiseshell queen carry her two kits, thinking it was Tallpoppy. When told about this, Tawnypelt becomes frantic, telling Squirrelpaw that Tallpoppy is a tabby, not a tortoiseshell. Tallpoppy is then thought to be missing. The queen and her kits are found in a clearing, but just as the cats find them a monster cuts down a tree and when the tree falls it almost crushes Onewhisker and one of Tallpoppy's kits, but Firestar races and rescues them just in time. After they escape Littlecloud is seen treating her for splinters.


 * When the Clans settle in Ravenpaw's barn for a night Tallpoppy remarks that this is a good place to rest. When the traveling cats cross the thunderpath, one of Tallpoppy's kits wanders back onto the Thunderpath, but the kit is saved by Dawnflower a RiverClan queen. As the cats get a first glimpse of how big the mountains are, one of her kits asks if they are really going up there and Tallpoppy replies that they are.


 * Later when the cats have to jump across a gap in the path on the mountail, Tallpoppy says that her kits can't jump that far, and Crowpaw helps them across. In the mountains one of Tallpoppy's kits, Marshkit, gets caught by and eagle, but just as he is being carried into the air Brackenfur rescues the kit.


 * On the Great Journey, it is noted by Squirrelpaw that Tallpoppy had shown great strength and courage, and that she remained positive despite the difficulty. She also becomes good friends with the queens from other Clans, particularly Ferncloud of ThunderClan. Marshkit, Toadkit, and Applekit befriend the only surviving kit of Ferncloud's second litter, Birchkit.

Starlight

 * After the Clans settle in their new homes, and begin to separate, Tallpoppy's kits are very unwilling to part with Birchkit, as he is with them. Tallpoppy knows they had to leave each other, though she is seen exchanging a wistful look with Ferncloud, showing that although they were from different Clans, they had formed a close bond.

Night Whispers

 * Tallpoppy is first seen coming out of the elder's den when Ivypaw is being held prisoner by ShadowClan, she comments that it looks like more snow will be coming. Tallpoppy is then seen grieving for Russetfur at her burial, solemnly saying her wisdom would be missed. Whitewater and Cedarheart, her fellow elders, make room for her to sit with them.

The Last Hope

 * During the battle, Lionblaze gestures to Tallpoppy to help him. She runs across the clearing towards Lionblaze, dodging a Dark Forest warrior. Tallpoppy picks up Pinenose's dead kit off the ground and nudges Pinenose ahead of her. She leads Pinenose behind some brambles, and lays her dead kit at her paws so she can mourn for it.
