Soot

Soot is a smoky black she-cat with green eyes.

Crookedstar's Promise

 * Soot is one of the kits in Mitzi's litter. She is the first of her littermates to introduce herself to Crookedkit. She is shown to be very curious, and asks lots of questions to Crookedkit. Her and her siblings take an instant liking to Crookedkit, and when he offers to watch the group of kits, they are overjoyed about it.


 * When harvest time comes, she wanders too far from her mother, and is nearly killed by a farm monster. Crookedkit goes our to look for her, and tracks her down by following her fear-scent. Crookedkit finds Soot, right when the Twoleg monster is bearing down on her. She is shaken up, but not too shaken to tell Fleck that Crookedkit was the one who saved her.


 * When Crookedpaw travels to the Moonstone with his Clanmates, he runs into Soot, who is happy to see him. Crookedpaw remarks that he thinks the she-cat has grown since the two last saw each other. The two old friends start talking, and Soot tells him that her family Piper, Mitzi and Fleck are okay, although she's not sure about Mist and Magpie, who were taken away by Twolegs.


 * Despite the comments from Cedarpelt and Crookedpaw's other Clanmates, she is shown to be very bright and optimistic while talking to Crookedpaw. When the two finally part ways, Soot promises to pass on his greetings to her family, and understands why Crookedpaw seemed silent.


 * Throughtout the book, Crookedstar often thinks of the barn cats, and has fond memories of them. Crookedstar says that he's grateful to them, because those barn cats made him feel wanted, whereas his clan did not. Regardless of how his Clan feels about them, he will always consider them friends.


 * She is not seen or mentioned in later books, so it is thought she may have died or was possibly taken in by a Twoleg.
