I have a personal list of cats who don't have apprentices and cats who don't have confirmed mentors. Every Clan has missing cats as mentors... except for TC. That's the one Clan we follow pretty closely, which is why we know for a fact that Berrynose hasn't had a single apprentice. But here's my listing (only the warriors, not the elders except in one instance for TC):
ThunderClan:
Thornclaw mentored Sootfur, Shrewpaw, Poppyfrost and Briarlight.
Whitewing mentored Icecloud, Cherryfall and Dewnose.
Mousewhisker mentored Bumblestripe, Plumstone and Baypaw.
Poppyfrost mentored Lilyheart.
Cinderheart mentored Ivypool and Finchpaw.
Lionblaze mentored Dovewing.
Rosepetal mentored Molewhisker, Fernsong, Larksong, Stemleaf and Bristlefrost.
Bumblestripe mentored Seedpaw, Leafshade and Shellfur.
Either Blossomfall or Cloudtail mentored Hollytuft. The BrS manga said it was Cloudtail while actually showing him getting her as an apprentice, while TAQ stated that it was Blossomfall.
Ivypool mentored Snowbush and Twigbranch.
Cherryfall mentored Sparkpelt.
Molewhisker mentored Alderheart (before he became a medicine cat apprentice) and Honeyfur.
Lilyheart is currently mentoring Flamepaw.
Dewnose mentored Thriftear.
Hollytuft mentored Flipclaw.
Sparkpelt mentored Twigbranch.
Leafshade mentored Spotfur.
Twigbranch mentored Flywhisker.
Finleap mentored Snaptooth.
Eaglewing is currently mentoring Myrtlepaw.
Cats without apprentices: Birchfall, Berrynose, Stormcloud, Sorrelstripe, Fernsong, Alderheart, Honeyfur, Plumstone, Shellfur, Stemleaf, Flywhisker, Snaptooth, Spotfur, Bristlefrost, Flipclaw, Thriftear
=16, 17 if you count Blossomfall.
There are currently no new kits in the nursery and none will be born anytime soon. The article for Daisy's Kin mentioned no queens or kits to take care of in the nursery at the time and since that takes place after the third book... well, I don't mind. Too many cats at the moment.
ShadowClan:
Snowbird mentored Lioneye and Pouncestep.
Tawnypelt mentored Starlingwing, Grassheart, Needletail, Snaketooth and Conefoot.
Scorchfur mentored Flowerstem and Flaxfoot.
Sparrowtail mentored Cinnamontail.
Grassheart mentored Gullswoop and Hollowspring.
Yarrowleaf mentored Spireclaw.
Stonewing mentored Juniperclaw, Antfur and Lightleap.
Strikestone mentored Blazefire.
Slatefur mentored Frondwhisker.
Snaketooth mentored Sunbeam.
Whorlpelt mentored Hopwhisker.
Cats without apprentices: Berryheart, Dovewing, Flowerstem, Snaketooth, Blazefire, Cinnamontail, Gullswoop, Conefoot, Frondwhisker, Lightleap, Pouncestep, Hollowspring, Spireclaw, Hopwhisker, Flaxfoot
=15, 16 if you count Cloverfoot. But unlike Berrynose, she most likely had an apprentice who just wasn't recorded.
Cats without confirmed mentors: Sparrowtail, Mistcloud, Stoatfur, Berryheart, Cloverfoot, Rippletail (Buster), Stonewing, Wasptail, Slatefur, Birchbark and Whorlpelt's first mentor, since it's impossible for Juniperclaw to be his first mentor.
Stoatfur was seen with Ratscar in TLH. Though Ratscar was Pinenose's mentor, she was already a warrior before the previous book started. Her name was announced the gathering, but the allegiances already had her warrior name in it, so... *Shrugs* I suppose Ratscar could be Stoatfur's mentor. In TAS Spikefur, Birchpaw, Mistcloud, Whorlpaw and Rippletail went out on patrol together. Whorlpelt's first mentor being Spikefur, Mistcloud or Rippletail actually makes a lot of sense. Spikefur left to join the rogues, Mistcloud died and Rippletail left to become a kittypet. As for Birchbark, we know his mentor wasn't Spikefur. Yarrowleaf was still an apprentice when Birchbark became one.
WindClan:
Nightcloud mentored Hootwhisker and Brindlewing.
Leaftail mentored Thistleheart and Oatclaw.
Emberfoot mentored Sunstrike and Smokehaze.
Heathertail mentored Furzepelt.
Breezepelt mentored Boulderfur.
Sedgewhisker is currently mentoring Flutterpaw.
Crouchfoot is currently mentoring Songpaw.
Hootwhisker is currently mentoring Whistlepaw.
Brindlewing is currently mentoring Applepaw.
Smokehaze is currently mentoring Woodpaw.
Cats without apprentices: Kestrelflight, Larkwing, Slightfoot, Oatclaw, Featherpelt, Fernstripe
=6
Cats without confirmed mentors: Uh... does Larkwing count? She was listed as an apprentice with Furzepelt as her mentor in the TAS allegiances despite being a warrior for seasons at that point. So Furzepelt being her mentor might be a mistake, but, yeah. You know, usually apprentices go out on patrol with their mentors. In TLH Crouchfoot (Crouchpaw) was on patrol with Gorsetail and Nightcloud. With that in mind, it's really no surprise that one of them was confirmed as Crouchfoot's mentor. Larkwing was only ever seen with Sunstrike and Harespring, but that was them waiting for Mousewhisker and Birchfall.
RiverClan:
Duskfur mentored Copperpaw, Shadepelt (AVOS) and Dappletuft.
Minnowtail mentored Mossyfoot and Breezeheart.
Mallownose mentored Havenpelt.
Sneezecloud is Harelight's mentor in the Norwegian books. I'm counting it, since Beetlewhisker was supposed to be dead.
Shimmerpelt mentored Nightsky.
Lizardtail mentored Foxnose and Fogpaw.
Brackenpelt mentored Gorseclaw.
Softpelt is currently mentoring Splashpaw.
Cats without apprentices: Icewing, Willowshine, Sneezecloud, Curlfeather, Podlight, Havenpelt, Jayclaw, Owlnose, Nightsky, Breezeheart, Dappletuft, Gorseclaw, Harelight
=13
Cats without confirmed mentors: Curlfeather, Podlight, Heronwing, Shimmerpelt, Lakeheart, Brackenpelt, Jayclaw and Owlnose.
Heronwing was seen with Rushtail, but that was in the camp, so it doesn't really count.
Kits in the nursery: Frostkit, Graykit and Mistkit. RC is currently the only Clan with kits listed in the nursery. So maybe we'll get another medicine cat or all three of them will be warriors.
SkyClan:
Sparrowpelt mentored Tinycloud and Nectarsong.
Macgyver mentored Dewspring.
Tinycloud mentored Bellaleaf.
Sagenose mentored Gravelnose and Kitescratch.
Rabbitleap mentored Parsleyseed, Violetshine, Palesky and Wrenpaw.
Plumwillow mentored Cloudmist and Sunnypelt.
Nettlesplash mentored Rileypool.
Sandynose mentored Pebbleshine, Twigbranch and Quailfeather.
Harrybrook mentored Fringewhisker.
Blossomheart mentored Finleap, Pigeonfoot and Turtlecrawl.
Bellaleaf mentored Reedclaw.
Reedclaw is currently mentoring Needlepaw.
Dewspring is currently mentoring Rootpaw (Rootspring).
Cats without apprentices: Mintfur, Fidgetflake, Palesky, Gravelnose, Nectarsong, Fringewhisker, Violetshine, Quailfeather, Pigeonfoot, Sunnypelt, Kitescratch, Turtlecrawl
=12
Cats without confirmed mentors: Rabbitleap, Plumwillow, Nettlesplash, Creekfeather, Birdwing, Honeytail, Sandynose, Harrybrook, Firefern and Stormheart.
According to Su, Leafstar mentored Plumwillow, Shrewtooth mentored Creekfeather, Billystorm mentored Rabbitleap, Bouncefire mentored Nettlesplash and Sandynose, Rockshade mentored Honeytail and Tinycloud mentored Birdwing. I know this isn't really canon anymore, but I'm keeping the Shrewtooth one. I do like the idea of him having an apprentice.
