Rogue is the term used to describe the hostile, usually agressive stray cats who do not belong to a Clan and are not cared for by Twolegs.[source?]

Definition
Edit
There is controversy about the definition of rogues and loners:
- The Original Arc and Secrets of the Clans refer to rogues specifically as being cats exiled from a Clan.[1]
- Most other books imply that rogues are cats who have chosen to live by themselves without other cats or Twolegs and scorn the Clan cats for their beliefs.[2]
- Some books, such as Firestar's Quest, call every cat living on their own a "rogue," even if they are not hostile, and act more like loners.[3]
Description
Edit
In the Clans' point of view, rogues are usually depicted and thought of as being selfish and aggressive.[4] They do not respect the warrior code or the cats who follow it, unlike loners.[5] Cats who are banished from their Clan usually live as rogues.[6] They occasionally trespass on Clan territory to steal prey, but if a patrol finds them, they will chase him or her back over the border.[7] Even when they live in a band, they aren't afraid to turn on each other.[8] They are very violent and are known to not have any qualms about attacking elderly and very young cats.[9] They can kill without having a good reason.[10] Rogues have also abandoned their kits in the past.[11]
Sometimes a group of rogues may raid a Clan, such as when Tigerclaw led a group of exiled cats and had them attack the ThunderClan camp,[12] or when a group of rogues attacked the Tribe of Rushing Water.[13]
