Frogcoat

She was first seen running away from an AdderClan cat that was chasing her out, and found by a group of four apprentices when she crossed the AdderClan-MoonClan border of Rabbit Residence, which were Birchpaw, Primrosepaw, Mountainpaw and Stonepaw. They confronted her about why she crossed, and she told them about how they suspected her mating outside of the Clan. She had been nursing her kits, Sorrelkit and Brownkit, for one moon until one of her Clanmates accused her of doing so.

Upon hearing that she was nursing, the four apprentices had an idea what to do, as two kits of a recently dead queen, Goldenlily, needed to be nursed immediately since they had no nursing queens in MoonClan. So they took her back to MoonClan and had her meet the leader at the time, Snowstar. He was skeptical of trusting her but they were desperate. Begoniaclaw agreed, and didn't seem to have any harmful intent towards MoonClan, as they took her in. She denied mating outside of the Clan, though, as she said she was a great warrior. She nursed the two kits for one moon until her milk started running out and another MoonClan queen and Birchpaw's sister, Sandleap gave birth and nursed them for another few days until Mousekit died from her lung condition. But Sandleap nursed Petalkit for another moon along with her other kits.

Begoniaclaw became close to Stonepaw, now Stonetooth, while being in MoonClan and she told her about going back to AdderClan. Begoniaclaw was skeptical of this because she didn't know if AdderClan would accept but she did want to see her kits again. After her milk ran out and Sandleap's kits were born, she defected back to AdderClan with Stonetooth. MoonClan wasn't pretty much bothered with Begoniaclaw leaving, but Stonetooth leaving with her was a very big thing, since Stonetooth was a MoonClan cat by birth and lineage. AdderClan only accepted them because of Stonetooth's skills in fighting and hunting.

Sorrelkit and Brownkit recognized her but weren't really close to her anymore. Finally Begoniaclaw confessed to Stonetooth about Pebbleleaf, who was from SnowClan, and Stonetooth decided to keep it a secret since it was of no relevance to her. Begoniaclaw later became a mentor to one of Stonetooth's kits, Frogpaw, and Stonetooth became a mentor to Sorrelpaw. She was very shocked when AdderClan turned against Stonetooth and her kits.

MoonClan didn't know what became of her, but they thought she may have gotten killed by AdderClan since she was very much associated with Stonetooth after all. But it was discovered later on in the generations that she was the grandmother of Adderstar through Sorrelstream.

Birchstar, Mountainstream and Primrosestorm recalled her to be a nice cat who felt empathy for every kit, especially for Mousekit when she died, and comforted Petalkit, regardless of her AdderClan loyalties and heritage. They also thought her to be a miracle from StarClan, as without her, Mousekit and Petalkit would have died without extreme measures, Mousekit sooner.
