Tigerstar (AVoS)/Trivia

Interesting facts

 * Tigerstar's feelings towards Dovewing were first revealed in Erin Hunter Chat 7.
 * He has SkyClan blood through his grandfather, Tigerstar, ThunderClan blood through Tawnypelt, and kittypet blood through Hal.
 * His daughter, Lightkit, looks exactly like him, and his son, Shadowkit, also has the same dark stripes as he does.
 * Tigerstar is the first known cat to be resurrected by StarClan, as they had revived him to unite the fallen ShadowClan.
 * Tigerstar still holds resentment towards Jayfeather for not saving Flametail.

Author statements

 * According to Kate, after the events of The Last Hope, Dovewing chose Bumblestripe as her mate over Tigerstar, as Bumblestripe was the more sensible opinion, and loving a cat from another Clan wouldn't work out well. In Bramblestar's Storm, Dovewing and Bumblestripe did break up, however, and Dovewing's unresolved feelings for Tigerstar played a role.
 * Kate has said Tigerstar is the most interesting modern leader to her.

Mistakes

 * Tigerstar was originally described as a golden tabby, although this was changed in Sunrise to his current dark brown tabby appearance. This description was accidentally used in The Fourth Apprentice, despite his description being correct in the allegiances.
 * He was mistakenly said to have green eyes.
 * Either he or his brother, Flametail, were mentioned as female.
 * He was mistakenly called Tigerstar prior to becoming leader.
