"I'm so sorry. We couldn't save them."
— Eeltail apologizing to Mapleshade for being unable to save her kits in Mapleshade's Vengeance, chapter 4


Eeltail is a gray-and-black tabby[2] tom.[3]

History

In the Field Guide Arc

Code of the Clans

Eeltail is an ancient RiverClan warrior under the leadership of Darkstar.
Eeltail participates in the battle over Sunningrocks against ThunderClan. He is seen chasing away a ThunderClan [he-cat who streaks for the ferns under Sunningrocks, with the support of his Clanmate, Blackbee.
Later, when RiverClan is driven away by ThunderClan, Darkstar, RiverClan's leader, tells her Clan that they should continue fighting ThunderClan, and to never give up Sunningrocks. This results in Eeltail deeming that the battle is lost, nodding to his leader that the ThunderClan cats are jeering at them from across the river.
After the battle is continued, Eeltail's Clanmate, Splashheart, sees a ThunderClan cat stalking him, while he is busy trying to hold down another cat. Eeltail lets the cat go. However, in the end, RiverClan reclaims Sunningrocks, driving ThunderClan away.

In the Novellas

Mapleshade's Vengeance

Eeltail is one of RiverClan's warriors. She is out with her Clanmates Appledusk and Splashfoot when the three cats come across a struggling cat in the water. Upon further inspection, Eeltail and Splashfoot realize that the cat is a ThunderClan warrior named Mapleshade. The ginger-and-white she-cat, although weak from her battle with the river, manages to ask Eeltail, Splashfoot, and Appledusk to save her kits, and before Mapleshade can finish speaking, Eeltail darts off and is already most of the way down the shore.
While the three RiverClan cats manage to get the three kits out of the river, their efforts prove for naught- Petalkit, Patchkit, and Larchkit are killed by the strength of the river, made even more powerful from the floodwaters. Eeltail apologizes to Mapleshade, her eyes full of pity and sorrow at the she-cat's loss. Although she is unsure of what went on with Appledusk and Mapleshade, and why the queen and her kits were out of camp, she says that they need to take the kits to Darkstar, due to being on RiverClan territory. Once they arrive, and the truth about their parentage is out, Eeltail, Splashfoot, and Rainfall are asked by Darkstar to bury the kits, in hopes that the three little ones may find peace when they rest.

Trivia

  • He has mistakenly been called a she-cat.[2]
