Foxleap/Main article

Foxleap is a reddish-brown tabby tom with glossy fur, auburn paws, and a russet-colored muzzle.

Foxleap was a ThunderClan warrior under Firestar's leadership in the lake territories. He was born as Foxkit to Ferncloud and Dustpelt along with his sister, Icecloud, and was apprenticed to Squirrelflight as Foxpaw. After becoming a warrior, Foxleap journeyed to the Tribe of Rushing Water as part of a ThunderClan patrol and was nearly killed by an eagle. When he returned to the lake, Foxleap trained Cherryfall and took part in the Great Battle. While Foxleap initially survived, his wounds became infected, causing the tom to lose his life.
