Spiderleg

Spiderleg is a slender, long-limbed, black tom with a brown underbelly and amber eyes.

Firestar's Quest

 * At the beginning of the book, Spiderkit and Shrewkit were seen playing with a scrap of moss. They were acting as if they were chasing Scourge out of there territory.


 * Spiderkit and his brother, Shrewkit, are said to be the first litter of Dustpelt and Ferncloud. Dustpelt tells Spiderkit and Shrewkit to settle down during a ceremony, however, a heartbeat later the kits are playing with a sodden ball of moss, and when it is thrown it hits Speckletail, who jumps up with a ferocious hiss, sending the kits creeping back to their mother. It is said that he and his brother liked to play, and made a lot of noise, disturbing Firestar's thoughts and dreams. This was shown during the ceremony when they kept playing with a puddle of water - the one that Firestar saw Cloudstar in - much to their parents' annoyance.

Midnight

 * Spiderkit is seen a few times in this book. He and his brother, Shrewkit, are made apprentices, Spiderpaw and Shrewpaw. Spiderpaw receives Mousefur as a mentor. Meanwhile, his parents have another litter of kits: Birchkit, Larchkit, and Hollykit. Spiderpaw was seen after a hunting patrol consisting of his mentor, Mousefur, and Rainwhisker, all carrying prey in their jaws. One morning, Mousefur roused Spiderpaw to join a hunting patrol with her, Brightheart, and Cloudtail. He was seen again, sprawled in the shade of the ferns of the apprentices' den with Whitepaw.

Moonrise

 * Spiderpaw is only seen once in this book. He continues to train as an apprentice with Shrewpaw. When Dappletail gets ill, he runs to get Leafpaw, telling her that Dappletail was complaining of her belly hurting. His younger sister, Larchkit, dies of starvation. His mother is upset, and so is he.

Dawn

 * Spiderpaw was only seen briefly in this book, when he and Whitepaw were pestering Brambleclaw to tell them about the journey. They say that Brambleclaw has to tell them what it was like to prepare them. Spiderpaw's brother, Shrewpaw, gets hit and killed by a monster while chasing a pheasant. Also, his younger sister, Hollykit, dies of starvation, leaving his younger brother, Birchkit, the last surviving kit of that litter.

Starlight

 * Spiderpaw is seen saying good-bye to a couple RiverClan apprentices, and Squirrelflight gives him a friendly cuff over his ear. Dustpelt checks to make sure that everyone in ThunderClan is together, and he finds Spiderpaw with Brambleclaw and Squirrelflight.
 * He nearly falls off the edge of the cliff over the new camp. Squirrelflight tells him to watch where he's going, and that he almost did the same thing that Squirrelflight did.
 * Once ThunderClan settles in their new camp, Dustpelt was seen giving orders to Spiderpaw and Whitepaw about clearing unwanted thorns from the camp to build a barrier. When Dustpelt says he doesn't want even a mouse to get through the barrier, Spiderpaw teases saying, "What, not even cats?".
 * A while later, he was seen carrying thorns to make the barrier with Whitepaw.
 * Brambleclaw tells Brackenfur to take Spiderpaw with him and Whitepaw to help hunt.
 * Firestar tells Brambleclaw that he talked with Mousefur and she said Spiderpaw scared off a young fox that was sniffing around the entrance to the camp. He also says that Spiderpaw is ready to be a warrior, and tells Brambleclaw to tell Spiderpaw that it will be his last hunt before he becomes a warrior.
 * When Dustpelt says that there should be a rule; no kits near the edge of the cliff, including apprentices, and he flicks his ears toward Spiderpaw and Whitepaw. Whitepaw nodded, but Spiderpaw's tail curled, reminding himself that after sunhigh, the "rule" wouldn't apply to him.
 * Ferncloud and Dustpelt are delighted when he receives his warrior name, Spiderleg.
 * During their first Gathering in their new territory, Firestar says that ThunderClan has settled in and they've already made a new warrior, Spiderleg.
 * When Spiderleg tries to catch a fish, he fails and Brambleclaw tells him he wasn't fishing right. When they spot Mistyfoot, Spiderleg asks her what she was doing on their territory. He exchanged a glance with Rainwhisker, when they weren't sure whether to leave Mistyfoot and Brambleclaw alone, but they both left.
 * Later on, when Brambleclaw asked Squirrelflight if she wanted to go hunting with him, she said that she told Ashfur and Spiderleg that she was going to hunt with them.

Twilight

 * Spiderleg mutters that Brambleclaw is a bossy furball, and that he thinks he is deputy.
 * When Sandstorm says there could be another battle between the clans, Spiderleg said that there couldn't be another battle since Mudclaw is dead.
 * Brambleclaw states that he could spare two to three warriors every morning to help with battle training, and he said he'd start with Ashfur and Spiderleg.
 * When Squirrelflight fights with Brambleclaw, Spiderleg whispers in her ear, "Told you he's a bossy furball."
 * When the ThunderClan cats were heading to a Gathering, Spiderleg was seen with Ashfur, padding behind Firestar, Sandstorm, Cloudtail, and Dustpelt.
 * His younger brother is now an apprentice under the name of Birchpaw.
 * Spiderleg goes on a hunting patrol with Cloudtail, Squirrelflight, and Brackenfur.
 * Spiderleg is mentioned, by Brightheart, saying that Whitepaw had been the only apprentice since Spiderleg became a warrior.
 * When Brackenfur asks where Spiderleg was, he pushed out of the warriors den and asked what they were waiting for. Cloudtail flicks his tail over Spiderleg's ear and tells him that they were looking for him. While in the forest, Spiderleg flashes passed all three of the cats, on the patrol with him, with his long legs. Cloudtail tells him to slow down, since they didn't want him to scare all of the prey in the woods, and Spiderleg apologizes. When the patrol smells intruders, Spiderleg asks if it is rogues, and began to creep down the bank. Cloudtail tells him to stay where he is. Spiderleg is one of the cats, along with Cloudtail and Squirrelflight, that finds Daisy. He offers to chase her out.

Sunset

 * After the badgers attack, Spiderleg and Whitepaw find Sootfur dead. Brambleclaw tells the two cats to move his body into the clearing. The ThunderClan cats try to repair the camp, and Spiderleg is seen sleeping with Ashfur that night.
 * Spiderleg is seen helping Dustpelt rebuild the thorn barrier.
 * He and Ashfur go over to Leafpool and he tells her that it's good to have her back. Leafpool tells him that it's good to be back.
 * Brambleclaw calls Spiderleg to go on the dawn patrol with him and Dustpelt. He tells Spiderleg to go on ahead and check to make sure that the ShadowClan markers are no farther than the dead tree, and to wait for them there.
 * Spiderleg was the first cat to find the fox traps. He nearly sticks his nose in the trap, but is stopped by Dustpelt. He asks if his mentor ever taught him not to stick his nose into something without knowing what he was dealing with. Spiderleg responds by saying that Mousefur taught him everything, and Dustpelt told him to remember it then. Brambleclaw congratulates Squirrelflight for figuring out how to fix the problem with the traps, and Spiderleg for spotting the traps. Spiderleg asks the rest of the patrol if they are going to gossip all day, or go on a patrol like they were supposed to do in the first place. He is seen padding right on Brambleclaw's paws, along with Dustpelt and Squirrelflight.
 * Spiderleg also calls out "what that bossy furball," when Firestar announces Brambleclaw as deputy. He is then embarrassed when he realized he'd said it out loud.
 * Spiderleg nearly agrees with Ashfur's accusation of Leafpool making up her dream about Brambleclaw becoming deputy because he was Squirrelflight's mate. However, he thinks better of it when the rest of ThunderClan doesn't agree.

The Sight

 * In The Sight, he receives his first apprentice, Mousepaw. His younger brother, Birchfall, is now a warrior. His parents have a new litter of kits, Icekit and Foxkit.


 * Also, he is the one to discover the dead fox on ThunderClan's territory. When Brambleclaw asks if the fox was a male or a female, Spiderleg says it was a female. Spiderleg tells Brambleclaw that Hollykit, Jaykit, and Lionkit had made a "patrol" of their own to and found the cubs. Spiderleg was one of the cats on a patrol that made sure no fox cubs were still around.


 * Late one night, Lionkit sees Spiderleg and Dustpelt padding side by side into the center of the camp. Spiderleg tells Dustpelt that "they're nearly here," referring to the moonhigh patrol, and Dustpelt tells him, "Good." When the patrol gets back, Spiderleg asks them if they patrolled the new border at the edge of the clearing. When Brackenfur said that Shadowclan wouldn't dare cross the ThunderClan border, Spiderleg says that they dared before Firestar even handed the territory to them. He agrees with Dustpelt when he says that Firestar should never had given up land so easily to ShadowClan. Spiderleg argues with Stormfur, asking that if it was wise of Firestar to stand in front of the Clans and tell them that ThunderClan can no longer protect their boundaries, and that ShadowClan has no right to set one paw on ThunderClan territory. When Stormfur says it's ShadowClan's territory, Spiderleg says of course Stormfur wouldn't care because he isn't a ThunderClan cat.


 * While returning from patrol at night with Dustpelt, Stormfur, and Brackenfur, he doubts Stormfur's loyalty towards ThunderClan, along with his father.

Dark River

 * He continues to train Mousepaw. When Mousepaw tried to hunt a squirrel, Spiderleg yells to him, "Nice try!", and Mousepaw says that he'll catch one next time. Spiderleg is seen when Daisy slips in between him and Birchfall to talk to Firestar. He tells Firestar that naming ceremonies are part of the warrior code, and that if they ignored them, would they still get the same respect from the other Clans?


 * Spiderleg is seen sitting next to Brackenfur and Cloudtail when they tell Hollypaw, Cinderpaw and Mousepaw that they are going to assess their training. Mousepaw tells Hollypaw and Cinderpaw that he is going to show Spiderleg he can really catch a squirrel. When Brackenfur and Spiderleg see Mousepaw climbing up the SkyOak, Brackenfur tells him to come down, but Spiderleg tells him to leave him alone, and that if he wants to go up it, to let him. Brackenfur tells Spiderleg that he wouldn't let Hollypaw climb up it, and Spiderleg tells him that Mousepaw has been training longer than Hollypaw. After a few minutes, Spiderleg even starts to get a little wary of Mousepaw going up higher and higher, and he tells him not to go too high. Since Mousepaw didn't catch the squirrel, Spiderleg tells him he might as well come down, but Mousepaw says he can't because he's too scared. Cloudtail offers to go up to get him, and Spiderleg agrees, saying that he can't come down by himself, but Cinderpaw goes up instead. When Hollypaw goes to get Leafpool, by mistake Ashfur is there instead of him.


 * During the battle with WindClan, that was caused when two WindClan apprentices chased a squirrel over the border, Spiderleg is knocked to the ground by Tornear. Ashfoot rears up from behind and sinks her claws into his shoulder. Thornclaw shoves Ashfoot off him, and he attacks back at Tornear. When the WindClan is defeated, Dustpelt chooses him, along with Thornclaw, to remark the border.


 * When three WindClan kits go missing, and WindClan suspects RiverClan took them, they decide to attack them. As ThunderClan prepares, in case WindClan wants to attack ThunderClan as well. Spiderleg tells Lionpaw to get something to eat and that he must be ready for battle at any moment. When Lionpaw says that WindClan was fighting RiverClan, Spiderleg growls, "Anything could happen. RiverClan might chase WindClan off the moor. They might decide to accuse ThunderClan of taking the kits instead. Leafpool told Firestar that WindClan is desperate enough to do anything."

Outcast

 * Spiderleg is only seen once in this book. He had kits with Daisy. Their kits are Rosekit and Toadkit. His apprentice, Mousepaw, becomes known as Mousewhisker along with his siblings Hazeltail and Berrynose. Spiderleg seems awkward around his kits, as if he "couldn't get used to the idea of being a father." His younger siblings become apprentices, Icepaw and Foxpaw.

Eclipse

 * Spiderleg is first seen sprawled out in the clearing with Thornclaw.


 * He tells Rosekit and Toadkit to stop "fighting" when all they said was that they were playing. He tells them to play something quieter, and says to Graystripe that he doesn't envy him, and says two kits are hard enough. When Toadkit starts playing with his tail, he says "When I told you to play something else, Toadkit, I didn't mean attacking my tail!"


 * When Brambleclaw wonders where the dawn patrol was, and Spiderleg asked who was on it. Graystripe said perhaps they went hunting, and Brambleclaw said that they were supposed to report straight back, and Spiderleg guesses that maybe it was quiet in the forest.


 * A stranger enters the camp, and he tells Firestar that he was looking forward to seeing ThunderClan, and Spiderleg asks how he knew them. When the stranger tells Firestar that, "It is time," Spiderleg asks him, "Time for what?"


 * He defends Daisy from Sol, saying that she is a part of ThunderClan now, only to act embarrassed about it later.


 * Spiderleg is seen dragging more branches from behind the medicine cat's den. He joins Brightheart in the clearing, along with Berrynose and Honeyfern.


 * Firestar calls Spiderleg's name to go on a patrol with him to fight with WindClan. Daisy calls after him to be careful, but he "didn't seem to hear her."


 * When the patrol finds a cave, where Lionpaw meeted with Heatherpaw, Spiderleg sticks his head into it and says that there is a tunnel in it that reeks of WindClan, but leads to their territory.


 * After fighting, Spiderleg gets a bad belly wound, and he was lying down with his flank is heaving and blood coming out of the wound and onto the forest floor. Ashfur dug his nose underneath Spiderleg's shoulder and pushed him to his paws, while Berynose steadied the other side of Spiderleg. Ashfur tells Spiderleg that he is going to take him back to Leafpool. Spiderleg was panting and groaning with each step, and Lionpaw halted to allow the three warriors to go through the entrance.

Long Shadows

 * Spiderleg is first seen at the fresh-kill pile curiously looking at Lionblaze along with Squirrelflight.


 * When Thornclaw has a coughing bout, Spiderleg tells Brightheart to get a move on to fetch herbs from Leafpool, and says that maybe then they could all get some sleep. When Hollyleaf told Thornclaw not to apologize to Spiderleg and Berrynose, they ignored her and curled up to sleep.


 * When Firestar calls a clan meeting, Dustpelt tells him that he hopes Firestar doesn't allow more outsiders into their Clan, and Spiderleg agrees saying that bringing them in is what caused the battle with RiverClan and WindClan in the first place.


 * Spiderleg gets sick with what is possibly greencough. Lionblaze tells him to go to Leafpool, and he is reluctant at first, saying he is fine, but he decides to go.


 * Daisy comes in with a vole, but Spiderleg said he wasn't hungry, so Daisy says, "But I picked it out specially for you!" and she wants to talk with Spiderleg. Daisy says he should start spending more time with his kits instead of only focusing on warrior duties. After their talk, Daisy is frustrated and leaves to be with her kits. Leafpool gets mad at Spiderleg and tells him that his kits should have a father. When Leafpool said kits were a special gift, Spiderleg tells her that they never expected kits. He then reveals that things did not work out between Daisy and him and that they were no longer mates.

Sunrise

 * When Sorreltail says that they can't be sure a WindClan cat did kill Ashfur, Spiderleg cut in saying that they found his body on WindClan border, and what more did she want. He says that WindClan will get trouble, when Thornclaw says the best time of attacking is at night. Spiderleg tells Brambleclaw that they are going to raid WindClan, but Brambleclaw cuts him off saying that there will be no raid against WindClan. When Firestar says he'll lead a patrol to see if Onestar knows who killed Ashfur, Spiderleg says of course he knows who killed Ashfur. Then, Firestar tells them that there is not enough proof that a WindClan cat killed him, but Spiderleg says "There's enough proof for me."


 * At one point, Spiderleg is seen playing with his kits, Rosekit and Toadkit for the first time. They are urged on to play by their mother, Daisy. While they are playing, Daisy remarked that she thought Spiderleg could be a better badger than that. Spiderleg breaks off into a cough and replies that badgers don't get greencough. He and Daisy seem to be getting along, but it is unlikely that they will be mates again.

The Fourth Apprentice

 * Spiderleg, along with Berrynose, are stuck in the mud in the lake. They both were up to their haunches in mud, and they were thrashing trying to get themselves out. When they got out, Spiderleg thanks Thornclaw and tells him he'll be careful of where he puts his paws. Then him and Berrynose pad off back to camp, mud dripping from their fur.


 * When ThunderClan captured Rainstorm, Firestar wonders what to do with him, and Spiderleg says that he agreed with Thornclaw with the idea to hold him for ransom and Leopardstar would have to give ThunderClan some fish for Rainstorm.


 * While talking about the drought, Spiderleg says that StarClan should do something about it, and that do they (StarClan) expect them to go without water.
 * When Dovepaw asks if the reason that the lake has no water is because of brown animals blocking it, Spiderleg asks "What brown animals?" Then when Dovepaw says that there are brown animals blocking the river, Spiderleg says, "And maybe hedgehogs fly," He told Lionblaze that he shouldn't let Dovepaw make this stuff up, especially since they are all suffering. Also he says that what Dovepaw says sounds like tales for kits. Graystripe tells Spiderleg not to be too hard on her, after all apprentices play games.


 * Spiderleg goes off with Hazeltail and Mousewhisker to find a shady place to sleep.


 * His kits, Rosekit and Toadkit, are now warriors known as Rosepetal and Toadstep, as well as his younger siblings who are now Icecloud and Foxleap.

Fading Echoes

 * Spiderleg is only seen once, and has only been mentioned once in this book. Firestar said that Rosepetal was as skinny as her father, and Jayfeather remembers that Rosepetal has Spiderleg's lithe body. Spiderleg is seen fighting with Oakfur and Whitewater along side fighting with him is Rosepetal.

Battles of the Clans

 * He is only seen a couple times. Spiderleg is seen as an apprentice, Spiderpaw, in the section Graystripe Speaks: The Battle Against the Foxes. He is part of the patrol that is hunting the foxes. He is seen following Graystripe along with Mousefur, and Brightheart. When they ran into the foxes, Spiderpaw lets out a tiny whimper and Graystripe rests his tail on his flank to give him courage.
