Top 10 Saddest Warrior Cats Moments

I think this made me shed a tear... I also wanted to punch her in the face and then make her into a loving mother that doesn't only care for looks but for the soul. That's the problem with some people these days. People don't accept each other. At least Crookedstar had Oakheart's shoulder to lean on when he needed it!

This is really sad for me, but I don't hate Rainflower. It doesn't justify her actions, but it has been confirmed that the only reason she left Stormkit was she thought he would die. She changed his name so when he did die, she could tell herself it wasn't her kit. When she realized he would live, she was too ashamed to apologize. She was always proud of Crookedstar and wanted to give him one of her lives, but StarClan forbade it. However, when Crookedstar died, she greeted him in StarClan, and they made up.

Yes, this is pretty sad, but it makes sense. I'm not sniffling and whining over this because there was clear intent behind this.

Firestar was the main character from the beginning. We watched him grow and learn. We saw him defy stereotypes by showing even kittypets can be strong. He rooted out Tigerclaw's assassination plot, and in the end, he died defending the clan he built. It's a very tragic end for him, but I wouldn't want it any other way.

If Firestar died before the great battle, it would've felt rushed and forced, as a way to have a new character take up leadership in their time of need. If he had died after, it wouldn't have the same emotional impact.

It's not just another casualty of war. It's the death of the main character, who we've followed for 24 books.

I feel so bad for Mapleshade. Honestly, if she had kept herself together, I would've called her a hero.

This really makes you think. StarClan are a bunch of jerks. They threw Mapleshade in the garbage can but accepted Appledusk.

It's so sad! So many people hate her, but I have a lot of sympathy for her.

Ruined everything. All I have to say.

Bluestar was a great Clan leader, but she had one of the saddest lives in the Warrior Cats series. Especially giving up her kits to save her Clan, that was so sad. And her kit Mosskit is dead. This is one of the reasons that I think this moment is the saddest moment in the Warrior Cats series.

This was the second book I got from the Warriors series. She was my favorite, like Firestar, but her giving up her kits made me cry.

She saves ThunderClan but gives up her own happiness for it.

OH MY STARCLAN. IT WAS SO SAD. And that's saying much because I don't usually find a Warrior Cats death that sad! Well, except for Yellowfang and Bluestar. Gray Wing didn't deserve to die, nor did he deserve to have a brother like Clear Sky. He was so kind and brave, and such a great father, aka THE BEST WARRIOR CATS FATHER EVER. He deserved to see his real kits grow up. But no, his stupid asthma had other plans. Before he even died, I was sobbing, saying, No, he can't die.

I was crying, sobbing, and groaning. I had to stop reading for a moment because IT WAS SO SAD! I almost GOT TEARS ON THE BOOK. I just couldn't hold back the tears and my emotions. But he died happy. Slate, Black Ear, White Tail, Silver Stripe, Jagged Peak, Clear Sky, Pebble Heart, Sparrow Fur, and Windrunner were there. He also named WindClan and SkyClan.

What was even sadder was that Black Ear, White Tail, and Silver Stripe were only kits! And that Gray Wing was telling them to forgive any harm done to them and to show kindness to their Clanmates. Black Ear said, You sound like you're saying goodbye. And Gray Wing said, I am. They begged him to stay, saying, No, don't go. But Gray Wing died! I miss him.

One time, I was telling my friend that I finished Path Of Stars. I had good news and bad news. She asked, Did some cat die? I said that Gray Wing died, but I know he's with Fluttering Bird, Quiet Rain, and Turtle Tail. Another time, I was with her, looking sad. She said, Are you okay? I said, I'm fine. I just miss Gray Wing.

I told my mom, and she said, You never get this upset at a death. She's so right. Go GRAY WING, WE LOVE YOU. Why did you have to die? I STILL LOVE HIM AND MISS HIM. I WILL NEVER FORGET HIM.

She was the cat I cried the most for. Usually, tears just stay in my eyes, but they were running down my face! I couldn't think about anything else at school.

I know it was noble and all, but it shattered Crowfeather. It was still a shock when I read the book for the second time.

She was amazing and just had to die helping the tribe. She did the right thing by doing so.

It's just... Cinderpelt was awesome. This was one of the saddest (in my opinion) deaths in Warriors history.

So sad! She could have lived again, but she freed Cinderheart.

Cinderpelt is my all-time favorite character!

Nooooooo! Poor Yellowfang! She was the best! She didn't deserve that! I loved her since Firestar (back then Firepaw) started taking care of her. She was a bit mean then, but began to soften up. I love how she was fierce and then also loving and amazing. The name is also amazing.

(SPOILERS) I felt so bad in Yellowfang's Secret when she always got blamed for doing bad things even though she didn't do them. Other warriors/kits did it, and she just felt the pain from them. Then, she had to become a medicine cat, and she didn't want to! She trained as a warrior, then she had to become an apprentice all over again to train as a medicine cat!

-Morningstar of SunClan.

This kind of makes me hate Rowanstar. He was like, "No, you got that wrong, Bramblestar. Actually, Needlepaw found them, and we deserve the kits anyway, because ShadowClan is the best!"

Then Bramblestar (I think) said, "Well, the only fair compromise is to each take one kit." Rowanstar was like, "Hmmmm, which kit should I take away from her sister? Okay, I'll take that one." "She's Violetkit."

Then he slowly picked Violetkit up and was like, "Okay, ready to leave your sister and not see her again for almost six moons?"

"Destiny isn't a path that any cat follows blindly. It is always a matter of choice, and sometimes the heart speaks loudest. Deep down, I always knew what I had to do, and that's why I came back to the Clan. Whatever else happens, I trust you to know the right thing to do as well. Listen to your heart, Lionblaze, because that's where your true destiny lies."

This truly touched me. No matter how much I hate Leafpool dying, she was important and loyal. No matter what got in her way, she conquered it. She lived for many good moons. Her seasons of StarClan have been awaiting her. May StarClan welcome you as a true medicine cat, Leafpool.

Brightheart is one of my favorite characters in the series. I HATE those dogs. They KILLED Swiftpaw! Swiftpaw didn't even get a full life. He died before they were even apprentices! He wanted to be an apprentice so badly that they got the idea to try to kill a dog. He sacrificed his life saving Brightpaw from a dog. I wish he had never died and at least become an apprentice! I mean, it was so sad! I'm listening to Titanium right now. PERFECT timing!

I hate the dogs for this. It made me even more of a cat person. Cloudtail's devotion to her is so cute though because you think of him as an arrogant, ignorant young warrior until you see his soft side for Brightheart.

I think that Willowbreeze never gets enough of an honorable mention. She was sweet and completely selfless to Crookedstar. She truly loved him for who he was. She didn't care about his looks or what the other Clan cats thought. I think she was the real hero of his novella, and her death was one of the saddest deaths of a she-cat in the whole series.

This is so horrible. Crookedstar has suffered so much, just for his mate and kits to die. Then they kill Silverstream later. I mean, what? Why?

I was heartbroken when I read this. I could feel it shattering inside my chest.

This made me cry a lot because Hollyleaf was my ultimate favorite character. I loved reading parts with Hollyleaf in it for no reason, and it made me cry when she died. Especially when she forgave Leafpool, that was very heart-touching. I had a feeling of melancholy when she died! You are my one true favorite cat in the whole Warriors series, Hollyleaf!

It's so sad when she forgives Leafpool. "I couldn't leave without getting to know my mother..." So sad!

I think this was a well-carried-out scene, but it was depressing too.
