"You saved Beechpaw's life. I'll make sure he knows it when he wakes up."
Mothwing to Willowkit about saving Beechpaw in Twilight, page 169


Beechfur is a light brown tom.[2]

Beechfur was a RiverClan warrior under Leopardstar's leadership in the lake territories. As an apprentice, Beechpaw was mentored by Blackclaw and became ill after drinking tainted water. After he recovered with the help of Leafpool, he earned his warrior name of Beechfur. He later became mates with Gorsetail of WindClan, and the pair became parents to Thistlekit, Sedgekit, and Swallowkit.

History[]

In The New Prophecy arc[]

Twilight[]

"We should treat Beechpaw next. He's the weakest, except for the kits."
―Mothwing about the sickness from Twoleg poison Twilight, page 160
Beechpaw, a young RiverClan apprentice, becomes violently ill after ingesting some Twoleg poison, and is forced to stay in Mothwing's den until he can recover. When Mothwing and Leafpool have two yarrow leaves left, Beechpaw is noted to be the weakest out of all the cats that had ingested the liquid, not counting the other kits, Tumblekit, Minnowkit, and Pebblekit. To cure him, Mothwing has to give him yarrow, so that she can make the young apprentice vomit all the poison out of his system.
Unfortunately, he ends up choking on the leaves, and is too weak to cough it up. Willowkit, who was helping the medicine cats, is the first to notice him. When the medicine cats approach, it is noted that Beechpaw is lying on his side, claws scraping weakly at the ground. Willowkit asks what is wrong with him, as none of the other cats were struggling to breathe. Leafpool asks Mothwing if she gave him juniper for bellyache, in which Mothwing confirms she did. As Mothwing wishes for coltsfoot, which was not in season, Leafpool realizes that Beechpaw's efforts to breathe were reducing, and if they did not think quickly, he would die.
Leafpool suggests that there may be an object lodged in his throat, and though it did not look like regular choking. Leafpool mews that Beechpaw was already weakened by poison, and he would not be able to cough up anything. Mothwing examines his throat and says that there is, in fact, something in his throat. Willowkit volunteers to pull it out, as her paw is smaller and more slender. She is successful, and Mothwing praises her as Beechpaw collapses, inhaling gasping breaths. Mothwing orders Willowkit to bring Beechpaw some water, and the kit squeezes a few drops of water from the moss into his mouth. Mothwing then tells the kit how she will let Beechpaw know how she saved his life once he wakes up. Willowkit watches over him but sees no bad changes. Mothwing later tries to feed him some yarrow again.
To her relief, he does not vomit again and manages to swallow the leaves. As Leafpool is leaving, he sits with a yawn, a sure sign that he is feeling better. After this, when the Clans meet for the Gathering, Mothwing tells Leafpool that he had completely recovered and has gone back to his apprentice duties training with Blackclaw.

In the Power of Three arc[]

The Sight[]

He has received his warrior name, Beechfur. Gorsetail of WindClan has also given birth to his kits, Sedgekit, Thistlekit, and Swallowkit.

Dark River[]

Beechfur is on dawn patrol with Mosspelt and Pebblepaw. Beechfur and Mosspelt escort Squirrelflight to Leopardstar, and later he escorts Hollypaw and Squirrelflight out of RiverClan territory, taking up the rear to make sure they do not go back into RiverClan.

Outcast[]

Willowshine mentions that he was stung by a bee, and the wound became infected. Mothwing skips the half moon meeting with the other medicine cats so that she can take care of Beechfur. She sends Willowshine to the Moonpool instead.
