Sasha/Main article

Sasha is a sleek-furred, tawny-colored she-cat with blue eyes, and a dark tail and ears.

Sasha was the former mate of Tigerstar and the mother of Hawkfrost, Mothwing, and Tadpole. Born a kittypet, Sasha became a rogue after the death of her Housefolk, Ken and Jean. In the woods, she met Tigerstar; however, the tom's bloodthirsty nature compelled Sasha to leave before the birth of their kits. Though she lived as a ship cat called Brownie and a RiverClan warrior temporarily, neither life suited her, and Sasha chose to leave her children with the Clans to continue life as a wanderer.

Tigerstar and Sasha

 * After leaving her life as a kittypet, Sasha is warned about the Clans by a fellow rogue named Pine. Soon after, she encounters a ShadowClan patrol, led by Tigerstar. Though he demands she leave their territory, Sasha listens with interest as he tells her about Clan life. The two begin to meet secretly, having fallen in love, though when Sasha learns of Tigerstar's treachery, she declines to join ShadowClan. She leaves Clan territory and temporarily works as a ship cat called Brownie, but upon discovering that she is expecting kits, Sasha returns to the forest. Her children, Moth, Hawk, and Tadpole are caught in a flooding building, causing Tadpole to lose his life. Ultimately, they join RiverClan for protection, but Sasha decides to leave them there, believing that without her, the identity of their father could be kept secret.

The New Prophecy

 * During the destruction of the forest territories, Sasha is captured by Workfolk along with several other rogues and Clan cats, but they are freed by a ThunderClan patrol. She reveals that she intends to take Mothwing and Hawkfrost away from the Clans, citing the danger posed by the encroaching Twolegs. However, her children deny her request, and after bidding her kits farewell, she disappears into the forest.

Interesting facts

 * Sasha was Tigerstar's true love, not Goldenflower.
