"Perhaps Firestar should concentrate on ThunderClan, and let WindClan get on with their own lives." |
— Webfoot to Squirrelflight in Twilight, pages 27-28 |
Webfoot is a wiry,[8] dark gray tabby tom[2] with orange eyes.[9]
Webfoot was a WindClan elder under Onestar's leadership in the lake territories, previously a warrior under Tallstar and Onestar in the forest and lake territories. He was a descendant of Rabbittail, a famous tunneler in ancient WindClan. As an apprentice, Webpaw was mentored by Mudclaw. He and his Clanmates were exiled by Brokenstar and ShadowClan, but were returned to their territory by Fireheart and Graystripe. After earning his warrior name, Webfoot participated in the battle against BloodClan.
He mentored Weaselfur as the Clans traveled to their new home. After Tallstar's death, Webfoot was one of Mudclaw's supporters for his leadership. When Onewhisker is instead given leadership, Webfoot fought in Mudclaw's rebellion against Onewhisker and his supporters. However, after Mudclaw's death, Webfoot recognized Onestar's leadership. He aided ThunderClan when badgers attacked their camp, and later retired to the elders' den. He was killed in the Great Battle and joined StarClan.

Dawn[]
- When the five journeying cats return from their travels, Crowpaw meets Webfoot, who is patrolling WindClan territory. Confronted by Owlpaw, Webfoot overhears the talking, and comes to ask who needs to see Tallstar. He sees Crowpaw, but keeps a very flat tone when addressing him, stating that the Clan thought he was dead. He starts to lead Crowpaw away, but his stopped by him; Crowpaw asks with confusion that he thought the camp was in a different direction, but is informed by Webfoot that they live in the old rabbit warrens now, stating simply that the Clan has moved for the time being. They continue to talk for a moment, and Brambleclaw, Squirrelpaw, and the others come to learn from Webfoot that Fourtrees is no more, having been destroyed by monsters and Twolegs.

- Webfoot supports Mudclaw, and when the former deputy shows distaste for Onewhisker's choice to surrender part of WindClan's territory, Webfoot is one of the cats who speaks up, saying that there are also herbs in that stretch of their territory, and would prove excellent for Barkface, their medicine cat.
- When Leafpaw asks to speak to Barkface, Webfoot is one of the cats who spots the young medicine cat apprentice, and escorts her to WindClan. After talking with Onestar and Barkface, Leafpaw sees Webfoot speaking to Mudclaw, and the two race out of the hollow.
- During the battle that erupts due to Mudclaw's rebellion, Webfoot is one of the cats who attacks Firestar. He, along with many others, feel that Mudclaw was wronged when Tallstar made Onewhisker deputy, so they try to kill Onewhisker and the others, although they are unsuccessful.
Twilight[]
- "I wasn't the only cat to believe Mudclaw was our rightful leader. But since StarClan killed him with the falling tree, and gave Onestar his nine lives and his name, I know that I was wrong."
- ―Webfoot to Squirrelflight Twilight, page 28
- During another patrol to WindClan territory, this time headed by Firestar, Webfoot appears yet again, joined this time by Onestar and Crowfeather.

- As Mosspelt and Leafpool make their way to RiverClan territory, they travel through WindClan's. They are stopped by a patrol of cats, consisting of Webfoot, Crowfeather, Tornear, and Owlwhisker. When Webfoot catches Crowfeather gazing at Leafpool, he asks Crowfeather if there aren't enough WindClan cats for him to pad after. Tornear, upon hearing this, says that Leafpool is Squirrelflight's sister reminding Webfoot that Squirrelflight went on the journey to the sun-drown-place with Crowfeather.
- When Leafpool goes missing, Firestar leads a patrol to WindClan, to speak to Onestar. Webfoot is one of the cats who leads the patrol back to WindClan's camp, and spats in disgust when ThunderClan offers to help find WindClan's own missing warrior, Crowfeather.
- Webfoot is part of the battle patrol that Onestar brings to help ThunderClan defeat the attacking badgers, and he and Firestar chase off the badger that had attacked the ThunderClan leader and another warrior, Brackenfur.

- Webfoot: "Well, you would know about that."
- Sunset, page 158
- During a Gathering, as Blackstar suggests that WindClan and ThunderClan give up some of their territory to the other two Clans, Crowfeather says that WindClan would find it hard to hunt in trees.

Winds of Change[]
- After arriving at their new home, Mudclaw hunts with Webfoot and Tornear. He reflects on whether or not making Webfoot his deputy once he becomes leader, but decides against it as Webfoot was recently made a warrior. After Tallstar's death, Webfoot is the first to welcome Mudclaw as WindClan's new leader. However, Firestar reveals that Tallstar had named Onewhisker his deputy shortly before his death.
- While WindClan settles into their new camp, Webfoot asks Onewhisker and Ashfoot where they should make Barkface's herb storage. That night, Webfoot and Nightcloud overhear Mudclaw and Tornear discussing the validity of Onewhisker's leadership, and Webfoot agrees with them. While Barkface and Mudclaw return back to camp from collecting juniper berries, Webfoot meets them outside of camp with news that Leafpaw, ThunderClan's medicine cat apprentice, is in camp with herbs for their sick elders. Webfoot disagrees with Onewhisker's decision to give ThunderClan some of their woodland territory as thanks, and while Webfoot eventually concedes to Onewhisker's authority, Mudclaw refuses.
- After a meeting with Hawkfrost about concerns of Firestar's involvement in WindClan and Onewhisker's leadership, Mudclaw shares these thoughts with Webfoot, Tornear, Nightcloud, and Crowfeather. He later shares a squirrel with Mudclaw when Onewhisker approaches Mudclaw about a training session. Webfoot joins Mudclaw's group of cats concerned about Onewhisker's leadership along with Nightcloud, Rowanclaw, Oakfur, Cedarheart, Blackclaw, and Hawkfrost. Hawkfrost insists they must attack soon, and they find their moment when Leafpaw discovers the Moonpool. Mudclaw agrees with Hawkfrost that they must attack and kill Onewhisker so Mudclaw can secure WindClan's leadership. Webfoot participates in the attack and battles his Clanmates, but flees when Firestar and his warriors arrive to help Onewhisker.
In the Field Guides[]
Battles of the Clans[]
- When Ashfoot welcomes Onestar back to WindClan's camp after traveling around the territories with the curious kittypet wanting to learn about Clan life, she mentions Webfoot. The Clan deputy says that Webfoot is WindClan's best storyteller, and she remarks that the visitors will need to squeeze past multiple kits in order to hear him speak.
- In Webfoot Speaks: The Story of the Lost Tunneler, the WindClan elder tells the story of Rabbittail, one of his distant ancestors.
