Wetfoot is a gray tabby tom.

Wetfoot was a ShadowClan warrior under Nightstar's and Tigerstar's leaderships in the forest territories. He was born as Wetkit to Newtspeck along with his brothers, Brownkit and Littlekit. During a training session with his brothers and Mosspaw, Wetkit and Brownkit accidentally killed the young apprentice. As a result, Brokenstar apprenticed him early as Wetpaw, with Boulder as his mentor. He earned his warrior name, Wetfoot, and soon gained an apprentice of his own, Oakfur. He helped to drive out Brokenstar from ShadowClan, and later attacked ThunderClan when ShadowClan discovered they were harboring their former exiled leader, Brokenstar. After his death, he ascended to StarClan.

History

In The Prophecies Begin arc

Into the Wild

Wetpaw is a ShadowClan apprentice mentored by Boulder. He participates in the battle to get rid of Brokenstar on the side of Nightpelt and the ThunderClan cats.

Fire and Ice

Wetfoot: "And this is my apprentice, Oakpaw."

Oakpaw: "H-hi, Fireheart."

^{Fire and Ice, page 23}

Wetfoot is now a warrior with a new apprentice, Oakpaw. When he sees Fireheart at the Gathering, Wetfoot greets him casually, commenting on Graystripe and Fireheart's warrior ceremony, and introduces him to his apprentice and the RiverClan warrior, Blackclaw. Later, Fireheart sees him in the battle with WindClan, fighting against Graystripe. He jumps on Graystripe, who kicks him away with his back legs.

Forest of Secrets

Wetfoot participates in the attack on ThunderClan. As Fireheart spots WindClan and ShadowClan coming, he sees Wetfoot and Onewhisker running side by side, their hostility forgotten and growing strong, in their hatred of Brokentail. Fireheart doesn't seem to want to fight them, as he once thought of WindClan as friends, but knows he has to protect his Clan. As Wetfoot breaks through the barrier to the camp, he flings himself onto Bluestar. He is hauled off by Fireheart, and flees as Bluestar furiously slashes her claws at him.

In the Super Editions

Yellowfang's Secret

Wetkit is born to Newtspeck, along with his brothers Littlekit and Brownkit. Yellowfang mentions they they had only just been born, and until the current kits were able to be apprenticed, the warriors would have to share the duties.

Wetkit, Littlekit, and Brownkit later take part in a training session against Mosspaw. Brokenstar tells Wetkit and Brownkit to use the double attack against Mosspaw once more, and to do it at exactly the same time. When Yellowfang hears a squeal, she turns to see Wetkit and Brownkit backing away from Mosspaw. When Yellowfang sees that Mosspaw is dead, she orders all the kits to return to the camp.

When Brokenstar announces that Mosspaw had died, Wetkit and Brownkit let out a shriek. But when the leader says it was just an accident and he was rewarding them for their bravery, their shock changes to excitement. Wetkit receives his apprentice name, Wetpaw, and is apprenticed to Boulder, and scampers up to his mentor to touch noses with him.

Leopardstar's Honor

While patrolling WindClan's abandoned territory, Leopardfur and her patrol come across Wetfoot and his patrol. Wetfoot explains his patrol spotted some WindClan cats, but concludes they are stragglers from when WindClan was originally chased out. The two warriors join their patrols to confront Stagleap, Sorrelshine, and Pigeonflight with a vole. The ShadowClan and RiverClan cats outnumber the three WindClan cats, who attempt to defend their catch and their right to be on their former territory. They scare the WindClan cats away, and Leopardfur gives the vole to Wetfoot's patrol as thanks.

In the Novellas

Tigerclaw's Fury

"We don't want the other Clans asking questions at the Gathering about where these cats came from."

―Wetfoot about the newly joined cats ^{Tigerclaw's Fury, chapter 8}

Tangleburr notes that she informed Wetfoot that they would meet them at the border before sunhigh. Once the time comes, Wetfoot remarks that he thought Tigerclaw would change his mind. When Oakpaw notes that Wetfoot was leading the patrol, Wetfoot shakes his head, informing his apprentice that Tigerclaw could lead them. When Nightstar dies, Wetfoot remarks that he didn't want the other Clans to ask questions at the Gathering on the newly joined cats' origins.

Blackfoot's Reckoning

When Brokenstar praises ShadowClan's apprentices, Wetpaw loudly cheers, making the other cats laugh. Brokenstar nods at the apprentice in approval.

In the Stand-Alone Graphic Novels

Exile from ShadowClan

Littlepaw tells Volepaw that he hopes he'll be made a warrior before Wetpaw or Brownpaw.
