Shrewpaw

Shrewpaw was born as Shrewkit to Featherpelt and Silversky. Shrewpaw never enjoyed a good relationship with his father, who considered the kit a burden and a constant reminder that he could not be with the she-cat he was truly in love with, Snowfur. However, his mother valued him greatly, as he was the only bond she truly shared with her mate Silversky.

Shrewpaw became an apprentice as Shrewpaw with Swallowflight as a mentor. During his apprenticeship, he trained with Newtpaw and Heronpaw for their final moons of training. He became close with Newtpaw, and was ecstatic when he became a warrior as Newttail. The two toms became known within the clan as being unusually close, and no cat was surprised when the two toms became mates. Silversky was furious at his son's relationship with another tom, wanting him to become mates with Hailpaw instead, but Lilystar eventually told Silversky to get over himself. When Featherpelt died, Shrewpaw was devastated, and sought comfort in his mate. Her death proved to be the breaking point in his relationship with his father, and the two haven't spoken since her death.
