@ermyger13 guessed correctly! I think the cat was Jayfeather! Here's the riddle:

I may not be a full time warrior,
But I'm loyal as I can be.
I had two apprentices,
And one who lived with me.
I still wear my collar with pride,
And my warrior name I bear.
I know I'm not apprenticed by my deputy,
And for that I do not care.

Good Luck!
