sandstorm now has no parents bc they all got retconned. even redtail being her dad is no more...
let's see everyone's headcanons for her parents! im sure the popular choice for dad is STILL gonna be redtail lol
for dads:
redtail sunstar rabbitleap (poppydawn's brother) thrushpelt
for moms: poppydawn dappletail rosetail
the only one i have that i like is redtail x rosetail. rosetail wasn't even THAT old when she retired, so it's possible she could have had sandstorm before "retiring."
and idk if dappletail's a good option either. she never has any moments or hints with sandstorm.
a funny one would be redtail x robinwing lmao. robinwing would just become everyones mom at that point.
sunstar being sandstorm's dad would be cool, but i dont really see it. honestly, rabbitleap and thrushpelt r only on there bc i dont have much options to begin with. even less for moms bc sandstorm had to get her ginger from somewhere if her dad isnt redtail.

I don't mind Redtail, but Sunstar would be nice, especially since he's the only other ginger cat in the Clan prior to Sandstorm's birth besides Goldenflower. Sunstar's mother Larksong also had pale green eyes, so it fits if they simply skipped her sons. Plus, Sunstar and Featherwhisker deserve to have some living kin in the Clan.
As for a mother, maybe Dappletail? I also like the idea of Thrushpelt being her father (not with Dappletail, obviously), or maybe even Windflight (likely with Poppydawn as the mother). Both Windflight and Thrushpelt also have green eyes.

Brindleface and Redtail are still labeled as mates on the family tree. Maybe they just forgot to connect them to Sandstorm

But yeah, if not him, then definitely someone from Windflight's family. I'd actually like it if Rosetail was the mother, but I have no idea who the father would be. If Thrushpelt wasn't her half-brother, I would've said him.

Just as dovewing mentioned. I headcanon Rosetail is her mother, but i don't know who would be the father, maybe a passing loner or rogue?

Sandstorm's parents like dovewing's eyes, they don't exist. (But if should give her parents then I always headcannoned redtail as her father.)

I know this isn't supported as much anymore, but I still like the idea of Brindleface and Redtail being her parents.
If not them, I can see Thrushpelt as her dad. He's described as sandy-colored with green eyes, like Sandstorm. Though I can't remember if he died before Sandstorm would have been born.

𝓣𝓲𝓷𝓾𝓿𝓲𝓮𝓵 halogenaw dang it...i was also warming up to the idea of sunstar, but oh well :c rosetail and redtail will still be my favorite headcanon for now, but i wouldnt mind windflight. it'd be funny bc that'd give sandstorm windclan blood and leafpool later gets with a windclan tom lmao

I liked them as her parents too, but I think if the Erins wanted Redtail as her father they would have at least hinted at Redtail’s relationships with a mate or Sandstorm in his novella.

If the authors/editors will never retcon Redtail and Brindeleface as the parents of Sandstorm, I'm fine with it.

side note: for some reason, i could never get behind brindleface being her mom. it's all hindsight but, they just dont give hints at sandstorm being close to any other cat in the clan...so im not sure

Think her parents should be Redtail and Brindleface, as it was mentioned in First Cycle and supporting material. That’s also mean that Sandstorm lost both her parents because of Tigerstar, giving her more personal drama and empathy from readers and more reason to hate Tigerstar and to sympathize to Firestar.

Rosetail for her mother- I can't imagine anyone else. And for her father, Runningwind. I see them as looking very similar and having the same body type. Also, Mousefur kin.

Also, Mousefur kin. ooh runningwind! that's an interesting choice. i imagine rosetail's random ginger tail combined with their dilute genes and made sandstorm light ginger lol

ive always liked the ideal of redtail as her father, even tho tortie toms are sterile lol There was a tortie looking tom who once sired some kittens. I found this on messybeast
In March 2018, Mistelle Stevenson wrote about her rare tortie male Maine Coon TGC Dawntreader Texas Calboy. His mother is QGC Dawntreader Calyx (torbie and white) and his father is CH Islandcats Triton of US*Dawntreader (solid blue). Triton is the last breeding cat of Islandcats, an American line. Calyx is out of US* MyLuckystars Goldie x US*MyLuckystars Caspian of US*Dawntreader (polydactyl Maine Coon); Caspian is out of MetatronEyes Hakan of US*MyLuckystars. These are all prize-winning and champion ancestors. Dawntreader Calboy was born in January of 2017 and assumed to be female by his breeder, Mistelle Stevenson. Mistelle had decided to keep him for her cattery even before his true gender was known – which wasn’t until 3 months old, purely because everyone assumed this lovely tortie would conform to the usual rules and be female. Calboy’s name comes from being a calico boy and from his mother’s name, Calyx.
Prior to Calboy, the last tortie-and-white Maine Coon male to compete in shows was Solkatz Pretty Boy Floyd (red, white and blue) in the 1990s. Floid was shown in CFA and his owners fought to have an exception made to allow him into the ring, but he was never allowed to be a Champion. Calboy has been shown in both CFA and TICA. In CFA he was one ring short of his Championship, and received points towards his Grand, but CFA had a board meeting to close the loophole that allowed him to compete in the ring, passing a decision to block Calboy from completing his championship in CFA or claiming his Grand points. In TICA, he earned his Triple Grand Championship that same weekend.
Because Mistelle thought he would be infertile, she naturally left him out with all of her cats. Little did she know that this would end up resulting in multiple pregnancies at once. Calboy was the only male that had access to those females. Usually chimera males only breeds as one colour. For example, Pretty Boy Floid bred as a red. When bred to a black smoke female, Calboy sired a smoke tortie, which meant he was breeding as a red. But … when bred to a red silver female, Calboy sired a silver torbie, which meant he was breeding as a black. Barring a totally new mutation, the only way he could be breeding as both a red and a black is if his testes are a mix of cell-lines from two fused embryos.
Mistelle sent cheek swabs for initial DNA testing to distinguish between klinefelter syndrome and chimerism. Testing normally requires these plus hair samples and blood, because sometimes a chimera is mostly one cell line, with a few cells of the other cell line in isolated places. However UC Davis found Calboy is a true chimera from just those swabs. She also sent of swabs from the two female kittens kittens for parentage tests. These confirmed Calboy to be the sire of both. He breeds as both red and black, with and without white, carries dilute and non-agouti. He has also sired a solid (self-coloured) blue male and he throws classic tabby, as well as solid (self), when bred to a female that is solid (self). He is the only known male calico that breeds as a true calico.

I like the idea of Rosetail and Runningwind as parents! That has some adventages, like Ashfur and Squirrelflight aren't releated anymore, Squirrelflight's bushy tail now makes more sense since it comes from Squirrelwhisker, Poppydawn and Rosetail. And Runningwind being one of Sandstorm's parents makes Sandstorm's desire to defeat Tigerstar even stronger. Maybe she even has some hidden grudge against Blackstar for killing her mother, but she pushes it aside to help his Clan when time comes.

I still see the parents as Redtail and Brindleface. Especially since these two are listed as mates on the tree.

I’ve decided I like the Idea of Runningwind being Sandstorms father too. Maybe his mate Dappletail could be her mother? After all Dappletail’s brother Thrushpelt is sandy in color (with green eyes like Sandstorm’s), and her mother Rainfur is ginger and white. And well Sandstorm is a pale ginger apparently but her name is SANDstorm so...

I have been starting to think maybe Runningwind is her father at least.
I love the headcanon that Redtail is a trans tom and RunningRed are her dads.

What if Stormtail and Dappletail had any kits? Maybe one of Stormtail's parents was ginger or something. And Dappletail has kind of ginger spots in her pelt.
