"[Dovewing] says all cats are warriors where you come from. She says you live in Clans. It sounds like a strange way of life."
— Cobweb to Tigerheart in Tigerheart's Shadow, chapter 14


Cobweb is a long-furred smoky-gray tom[3] with half an ear missing.[4]

In the Super Editions[]

Tigerheart's Shadow[]

Cobweb: "Is this what it's like to be a warrior?"
Tigerheart: "Not all the time. But we're prepared to take risks to defend what's ours, when we have to."
—Cobweb and Tigerheart Tigerheart's Shadow, chapter 25
Fierce, along with Cobweb and Ant, confront Tigerheart as he approaches their den, flattening their ears aggressively. Tigerheart tries to explain that he’s traveled a long way to look for his mate, Dovewing. Fierce flicks her tail, and the gray tom stops his advance. She sends Ant to see if Dovewing is here, and they watch him race away. As Ant returns to the group, they lead Tigerheart into the den and leave him with his mate.
The next day, Fierce approaches Tigerheart and Dovewing’s nest with Cobweb and Cinnamon following her. She greets them, then asks if they might be able to help them with a fox keeping them from gathering herbs. Tigerheart agrees to help. The cats travel through the Twolegplace and through a tunnel under a large Thunderpath. Cobweb ducks into the tunnel, and Tigerheart follows him as they emerge on a green stretch where several types of herbs grow.
Cobweb checks on the willow herb, reporting that it’s doing well. Fierce gathers the group together and the patrol moves to investigate the fox’s scent. A fox lunges forward and Tigerheart tugs the creature backwards, giving Cobweb time to escape. The guardian cats all attack the fox, but Tigerheart can tell their attacks aren’t scaring the creature, and are only making it angry. The fox lunges at Cobweb, sinking it’s fangs into the tom’s spine. Tigerheart wrenches him free and barks out orders, which the other cats obey. A second fox approaches, and Ant rushes forward, helping Cobweb down the slope. Tigerheart stalls the foxes as the rest of the group escape.
Two moons later, Tigerheart is on patrol with Cobweb, Mittens, and Fierce, frustrated that they’re scavenging from Twoleg scrap cans. They make their way down the alley and begin to knock covers off of scrap cans, and find meat scraps. They soon return to Cinnamon and their first stash to find the she-cat cornered by four rogues. Tigerheart leaps to defend her, while Cobweb and Ant watch from the end of the alleyway. He manages to make them go away, and the patrol returns to the gathering den.
Another day, Fierce gathers together several cats to go to the Twoleg gathering to scavenge. Cobweb goes with them, and offers to go with Mittens to try and get some fish. The patrol splits by Fierce’s command, and Tigerheart goes with her and Cobweb. They dodge between Twolegs, and make their way across to more ledges with meat. Fog and her group confront the trio, and Tigerheart orders Fierce and Cobweb to take the catch to Dotty, so they grab what they can and scurry away.
Tigerheart makes it back to his group, and tells them to grab what they can and run. Once they escape and he explains what happened, Cobweb comments that it’s weird that she didn’t find her own scraps instead of attempting to steal. Fog and her group confront them again, but are sent off with harsh words from Tigerheart. Cobweb returns to the gathering den with the group, carrying prey.
Fog’s group soon becomes an increasing problem, and Tigerheart suggests that they drive the foxes out of her group’s old home so they’ll return and leave. The guardian cats dubiously agree to learn to fight, and Cobweb exits the den with his friends to train. Tigerheart watches Cobweb and Ant attack Rascal, but fall away sloppily when the tom ducks from beneath them. A squeal from Pouncekit alerts everyone that the kit is in trouble and they go to investigate, seeing that she’s in a Twoleg trap. Cobweb, along with Fierce and Tigerheart free the kit thanks to a narrow gap Fierce made with a branch.
Tigerheart, some guardian cats, and part of Fog’s group walk around and discover more mesh traps. Cobweb sniffs at a trap, inspecting it closer. Cobweb grabs a stick and pokes it into the trap, which makes it clang shut. Triumphant, Cobweb exclaims that they should hurry and close them all, as the sound seems to attract Twolegs. Cobweb moves to fetch another stick, and the patrol closes all of the traps.
The Twolegs replace the old traps with new ones, which the guardian cats continue to close. Tigerheart formulates a plan to drive the foxes into the traps, which Cobweb agrees to help with. With the help of Tuna, they carve out two good routes, and start their plan the next day. Tuna joins Tigerheart and Cobweb’s group, and they crouch against the wall to avoid the driving rain. The tabby tom warns them to look out for their partners, and call for help if needed, so no cat is left to face the foxes alone. The cats agree and break up into groups.
They jump onto a wall, and Tigerheart orders Cobweb and Tuna to surround the biggest fox while Fierce and Ant take the other. They slowly approach, and upon seeing Tigerheart’s tail signal, yowls split the air. The tabby tom strikes their fox across the muzzle, and they race through a maze of narrow passageways and eventually near an open stone clearing. The foxes start to catch up. The trio keep going until they reach a place near the gathering den and then duck underneath stone slabs to let Rascal, Mittens, and Pipsqueak take over. Fog comes to investigate, and upon learning what has happened, agrees to return to her old home.
When Tigerheart and Dovewing decide to leave, Cobweb and Rascal pad over to the group together to hear their announcement and wish them farewell.
