Beesting is a small,[4] white[5]-and-brown[6] tabby she-cat[5] with distinctive white markings.[4]
Beesting is a SkyClan warrior under Leafstar's leadership in the lake territories. Beekit was born alongside her brother Beetlekit to Nectarsong and Dewspring. She was apprenticed to Sunnypelt as Beepaw and helped the effort to rebuild RiverClan camp following Splashtail's reign. After completing her training, she was given the warrior name Beesting.
History[]
In The Broken Code arc[]
Darkness Within[]
- "Can I be your apprentice?"
- ―Beekit to Rootspring Darkness Within, page 277
- After the Sisters' summoning ceremony, Beekit and Beetlekit experience their first day outside of the nursery, under the watchful eye of their parents, Dewspring and Nectarsong. Rootspring watches as Beekit nearly crashes into Snow, who gazes warmly at the kit. Dewspring snatches her up and carries her away. Rootspring becomes lost in thought, and does not notice when Beekit and Beetlekit hare toward him and dart between his legs. The yellow tom hops out of the way and tells the kits to slow down, and Beekit asks who he is. Rootspring tells the kits his name, and Beekit asks if he is the one who brought the Sisters to SkyClan. Rootspring confirms this, and Beekit purrs excitedly, saying he is so cool, and asks if she can be his apprentice. Beetlekit argues that he wants to be Rootspring's apprentice, and the two kits begin play-fighting.

Trivia[]
Mistakes[]
- Due to timeline inconsistencies, Beesting and Beetleshine were apprenticed before their sixth moon, as the last three books of The Broken Code take place roughly a month, and there is roughly a three month timeskip between A Light in the Mist and River.[18]
- In the allegiances of River, Sky, and Shadow, she is mistakenly called a kit, despite being an apprentice.[2][19][20]
