Poppydawn

Poppydawn is a long-haired, dark red tabby she-cat with a long, bushy, thick tail, amber eyes, and a muzzle turned gray with age.

Crookedstar's Promise

 * During a Gathering, Crookedjaw asks her if Thistlepaw, Rosepaw, and Sweetpaw are there, and she responds that Thistlepaw was in trouble with Smallear again. Windflight, her mate, shakes his head and says that Sweetpaw and Rosepaw stayed with Thistlepaw, though.

Bluestar's Prophecy

 * At the time of Bluekit's birth, Poppydawn is in the nursery expecting kits. Later, she gives birth to Sweetkit, Thistlekit, and Rosekit.


 * After her kits become apprenticed, Rosepaw, Sweetpaw, and Bluefur fall ill after they share a bad mouse. Bluefur and Rosepaw begin to recover, but Sweetpaw stays ill, and Poppydawn decides to look after her in the apprentice den. She wakes up from a nap one morning and finds Sweetpaw dead. She mourns her death with the rest of her kin and Clan, and her sadness grows when Pinestar announces that he is leaving ThunderClan to become a kittypet. There are various times when she is seen helping around the camp, and occasionally goes out on patrol.


 * Her kits, Rosepaw and Thistlepaw, become warriors, taking the names Thistleclaw and Rosetail.


 * Moons later, Poppydawn retires as an elder. After Bluestar becomes leader, she remembers Poppydawn along with other cats who have died throughout Bluestar's long life.

Code of the Clans

 * She is a very elderly cat who is sick with greencough and weakened by hunger in the middle of a very cold and harsh leaf-bare. It is said that she is too weak to even eat the catmint Spottedleaf have given her. The medicine cat says that if she doesn't get fresh-kill soon, she will die. Longtail, who had been hunting with Darkstripe, catches a large, plump squirrel, but Darkstripe convinces Longtail to eat it in order to get strength to catch more prey. Longtail at first doesn't want to, but Darkstripe convincing him it was the right thing to do, he eventually gives in.


 * Soon after a wail rises from the ferns around the medicine cat den belonging to her daughter, Rosetail, pleading with Poppydawn not to leave her. Longtail wants to tell the Clan, but Darkstripe blackmails him, so he doesn't. Longtail hears Poppydawn on her way to StarClan. He apologizes, but she tells him it is too late.

Trivia

 * On Vicky's Facebook page, she mentioned that she would like to think of Poppydawn as Pinestar's daughter.
 * When Poppydawn retires to the elder's den, Bluefur mistakenly calls her a dark brown she-cat.
