Tigerstar (AVoS)/Trivia

==Trivia==
===Author statements===
*According to Kate, after the events of The Last Hope, Dovewing chose Bumblestripe as her mate over Tigerstar as Bumblestripe was the more sensible opinion, and loving a cat from another Clan wouldn't work out well.Revealed on Kate's Facebook In Bramblestar's Storm, Dovewing and Bumblestripe did break up, however, and Dovewing's unresolved feelings for Tigerstar played a role.Revealed on Vicky's Facebook 
*Kate says that the reason Dovewing likes Tigerstar so much is that "he is naturally everything she wishes she was" as a loyal, kind-hearted, well-meaning warrior and wanting to do his best for the Clan and trying really hard to do so.
*In response to Tigerstar's behavior towards SkyClan in The Raging Storm, Kate explained that Tigerstar acted tough "to make sure he's taken seriously". Furthermore, "ShadowClan have been through a difficult time [and] he has to make them seem formidable again".
*Kate has said Tigerstar is the most interesting modern leader to her.
**She goes on to say she loves that "Tigerstar is so tough and yet so fallible" and gets the sense "that he is strong but always a little out of his depth and putting on a tough front".
*Tigerstar's feelings towards Dovewing were first revealed in Erin Hunter Chat 7.
===Interesting facts===
*He is named after his grandfather, Tigerstar.
**Kate suspected that Tawnypelt named her son after her father so Tigerkit could inherit his strengths as a powerful warrior.
*He has ThunderClan blood through Tawnypelt and kittypet blood through Hal. He also has SkyClan blood because his grandfather Tigerstar is a descendant of Gorseclaw.
*Tigerstar looks like his uncle, Bramblestar. 
**Tigerstar's daughter, Lightleap, looks exactly like him, and his son, Shadowsight, also has the same dark stripes as he does.
*Tigerstar was the first known cat to be resurrected by StarClan.
*Tigerstar still holds resentment towards Jayfeather for not saving Flametail.
*Tigerstar was leader of ShadowClan at the same time his uncle, Brambleclaw, was leader of ThunderClan. This makes them one of only a few instances where cats closely related to each other are leaders of separate Clans at the exact same time, including when Mothwing, Tigerstar's half-aunt and Brambleclaw's half-sister, briefly led RiverClan, and Skystar and Thunderstar, who are father and son.

*He was mistakenly said to have green eyes.
*Either he or his brother, Flametail, were mentioned as female.
