Magpie (cat)

Magpie is a black-and-white tom.

Crookedstar's Promise

 * Magpie is introduced to Crookedkit as one of Mitzi's four kits. He and his littermates, Piper, Soot and Mist, all bombard Crookedkit with questions when he first arrives. He seems curious about the "Foodstone", and asks if he could go there. He actually means the Moonstone, but picked up the name from hearing Fleck tell Mitzi about where Crookedkit was headed. Mitzi reprimands the young kit, telling him not to be so daft and that he's far too young to even think about doing such a thing.


 * Magpie is shown to have a cough that doesn't want to go away. Crookedkit remembers what Brambleberry, RiverClan's medicine cat, would have done. He tells Mitzi to give Magpie coltsfoot for his cough. She seems a little confused at first, but Fleck says that it's worth a try.


 * After Fleck leaves, Crookedkit offers to keep an eye on Magpie and his littermates while Mitzi goes and gets a drink. Crookedkit says he'll keep the kits in the hollow until Fleck gets back. He then attempts to teach the kits how to play moss-ball, to which Magpie asks what the game is. It's noted that his cough stopped, but his mew was still a little croaky.


 * Magpie is seen about a moon later, his cough never again mentioned. While Crookedkit and Fleck are out hunting, Fleck realizes that the Twolegs are harvesting the field, meaning they're cutting the corn. Crookedkit then realizes that Mitzi and her kits are in trouble, and they rush to save them. Magpie seems scared, wailing something about the monsters that are coming. Fleck takes Magpie and gets him to saftey, along with Piper and Mist. His other littermate, Soot, however, goes missing. Crookedkit offers to find the missing kit, and when he does, Soot is terrified. When Crookedkit announces that he's leaving, Magpie and his littermates all gaze up at Crookedkit with enormous eyes.


 * When Crookedpaw is on his way to the Moonstone, he meets Soot. She says that she thinks Mist and Magpie are okay. She doesn't know for sure, because they were taken away. Soot says that Fleck told her they were taken to hunt mice on another farm.
