Mentors, when training your apprentice, you must teach it all of these fighting moves-
*Reference: Sheathed- No claws Unsheathed: Claws
*Medicine Cat Apprentices learn these too

Back kick- Explosive surprise move to catch oppenent from behind. Judge opponents's distance from you carefully; then lash out with your back legs, taking your weight on your front paws.
Belly rake- A fight-stopper. Slice with unsheathed claws across soft flesh of opponent's belly. If you're pinned down, the belly rake puts you back in control.
Front paw blow- Frontal attack. Bring your front paw down hard on your opponent's head. Claws sheathed.
Front paw strike- Frontal attack. Slice downward with your front paw at the body or face of your opponent. Claws unsheathed.
Leap-and-Hold- Ideal for a small cat fighting a large opponent. Spring onto opponent's back and grip with unsheatehd claws. Now you are beyond the range of your opponent's paws and in position to inflict severe body wounds. Watch for the drop-and-roll counter move, and try to jump free before you get squashed.
Play dead- Effective in a tight situation, such as when you are pinned. Stop struggling and go limp. When your opponent relaxes his grip, thinking you are defeated, push yourself up explosively. This will throw off an unwary opponent and put you in an attacking position.
Scruff shake- Secure a strong teeth grip in the scruff of you opponent's neck; then shake violently until he or she is too rattled to fight back. Most effective agaist rats, which are small enough to throw. A strong throw will stun or kill them.
Teeth grip- Target your opponent's extremities- the legs, tail, scruff, or ears- and sink in your teeth and hold. This move is similar to the leap-and-hold except your claws remain free to fight.
Upright lock- Final, crushing move on already weakened opponent. Rear up on back legs and bring full weight down on opponent. If opponent does same, wrestle and flip him under you. This move makes you vulnerable to the belly rake, so requires great strength and speed.
