Canon
At first, Squirrelpaw and Brambleclaw didn't get along very well. They constantly argued and Brambleclaw couldn't stand her. When Brambleclaw had to go on the quest to find Midnight, Squirrelpaw insisted on coming along for the ride. They became friends on the quest, and Brambleclaw realized he was falling for her. Soon, Squirrelpaw earned her warrior name: Squirrelflight, and also realized her feelings for Brambleclaw. But there was another tom-cat in ThunderClan with strong feelings for her: Ashfur. Squirrelflight was caught between the two, but in the end, she chose Brambleclaw as her mate. Ashfur was furious, but he couldn't do anything about it.

Meanwhile, Squirrelflight's sister, Leafpool, was expecting kits. Since she was a medicine cat and the father was from WindClan, they were extremely forbidden. Squirrelflight agreed to raise the kits, Lionkit, Hollykit, and Jaykit as her and Brambleclaw's own. Brambleclaw believed that they were really his kits and Squirrelflight couldn't bear to tell him the truth. When the kits were grown up and were known as Lionblaze, Hollyleaf, and Jayfeather, they and Squirrelflight were caught in a wall of fire, created by Ashfur. Ashfur told Squirrelflight that he was going to kill her "kits" so that she could understand the pain it felt to lose someone she loved. Squirrelflight surprised everyone admitting that they weren't her kits.

Brambleclaw broke up with Squirrelflight after this, as he couldn't believe that his mate would lie about having his kits. In time, however, he forgave her. When Firestar died and he became Bramblestar, she was named deputy. Soon, they had their own, real kits: Alderkit, Sparkkit, Dandelionkit, and Juniperkit. Juniperkit died at birth and Dandelionkit died a few moons later, but both Alderkit and Sparkkit lived to adulthood, becoming Sparkpelt and Alderheart. However, something very strange happened to Bramblestar: he was possessed by an evil ghost cat. While Bramblestar was possessed, he did a lot of horrible things to Squirrelfllight. Eventually, Squirrelflight figured out the identity of the ghost cat and became the new acting leader of ThunderClan with her nephew Lionblaze as her deputy.

He became an apprentice as Alderpaw with Molewhisker as his mentor but later became a medicine cat apprentice under Jayfeather. StarClan sent him on a quest to find SkyClan, but he and his companions were unsuccessful, instead of meeting Darktail and his rogues. On the journey back, Alderpaw and Needlepaw found two abandoned kits, Twigkit and Violetkit, and took them to join the Clans.

Alderpaw helped raise Twigkit, even taking her to visit Violetkit, who was claimed by ShadowClan. After completing his training, Alderheart served his Clan with compassion and empathy and strongly believed that SkyClan should have a place beside the other Clans at the lake. He became ThunderClan's sole medicine cat after Jayfeather was exiled by the impostor and was forced to train Flipclaw as his apprentice. He has exiled himself after standing up against the impostor, staying briefly in ShadowClan as a refugee. He returned to ThunderClan after the impostor was captured.

Moons after, Sparkpaw earned her warrior name, Sparkpelt. As a warrior, she developed strong feelings against SkyClan returning to the lake, despite Alderheart's opposite opinions. She mentored Twigbranch, who returned to ThunderClan from SkyClan and rigorously trained her apprentice. She eventually became Larksong's mate and gave birth to Finchkit, Flamekit, and Flickerkit. However, Flickerkit was stillborn and Larksong succumbed to illness just as Sparkpelt finished giving birth. The death of her mate and son, combined with her parents' fighting, sent Sparkpelt into a depression, but she soon recovered and was able to be a mother to her kits. Sparkpelt was later briefly exiled by Bramblestar's impostor along with several other cats but returned under the leadership of Squirrelflight.

After becoming a warrior, Hollyleaf and her siblings were cornered in a fire by Ashfur, and in order to save them, Squirrelflight revealed that they were not her kits. In the wake of discovering that Leafpool and Crowfeather were her true parents, Hollyleaf killed Ashfur to keep him from telling the Clans, but frustrated that nothing had changed, she ultimately revealed the secret herself at a Gathering. Thereafter, Hollyleaf disappeared into the tunnels and became close with Fallen Leaves; however, after being believed to be dead, she returned to her Clan and fought in the Great Battle, saving Ivypool from Hawkfrost.

He eventually agreed to train under Leafpool. While walking in the dreams of Firestar, Jaypaw heard about the Kin of Your Kin prophecy, realizing he and his littermates were destined to be powerful.

He earned his medicine cat name, Jayfeather. When a fire erupted in ThunderClan's camp, it was forced out by Ashfur that Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw were not his true parents.

Shortly after Hollyleaf vanished, he and Lionblaze realized that she was not one of the Three and the prophecy was predicting the Dark Forest's rising.

Fulfilling the prophecy, he, Lionblaze, and the third cat, Dovewing, helped the Clans fight off the Dark Forest in the Great Battle. After the battle, Jayfeather, Lionblaze, and Dovewing lost their powers, and Jayfeather gained an apprentice, Alderheart, whom he grew very close to. After Bramblestar's revival, he was adamant about punishing the codebreakers. Jayfeather was one of them and was forced to swear an oath of loyalty.
