So I agree with everyone that SoftFur is dave's mate and there child is boulderpatch. the evidence being in chapter 22 that most people think we see dave,boulderpatch and softfur.Also in chapter 65 dave states "kids am i right?' Sort of implying that he has experienced kits before.(Eh bit of a stretch.)Also boulderpatch kind-of reminds me of dave?also dont rember which chapter but one cAT (dont rember name) asked so many questions to soft fur one of them was along the lines of who convinced mudstar to let you in that leaf-bare showing shes not shadowclan. *deep breath* So Rainboo made a animation called the incident most people implied that to go with that rainboo typed something weird and it said DovePaw Hurt boulderPatch And im not too shure but maybe Dovepaw was sent to kill dave but she killed the wrong cat and she hurt boulderpatch EMOTIONALLY and boulderpatch ran up and clawed her face.Also softfur saw it.(Or she tried to kill her bouldepatch and HER father intervined and died) *deep breath* So the spider THAT SOFTFUR IS LIKE ME LOVE!!! My theory is that the spider might be on of her two mates or at least pretending to be :3. SO i think either she mourns Dave or her mate and she couldn't handle i so she somehow made a spider that could talk to them and its actually and evil cat possibly. Second idea who dove paw murdered she took the dead cats body and recarnaited them into a spider but the soul is trapped in the dark forest.THIRD Idea Shining stream and lost river some how a messed up in this :/Evadnce if you look at the refs for toPH you see in the dark forest a cat that looks like the butterfly deity but spider! *EEEEEEEEEEEEE*(Ha fooled you no deep breaths!) Okay well theres my theory really covered so much :D AND YES i am thinking that dovepaw father is not DAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!And Rember this is just a guess.
this Theory is just my pea-brain and reading other theories to make this. Most of this is probably wrong so yay? Also no clue why i made that drawing <---- Also most of this is not completed at all so feel free to fill in the blanks.Pretty mutch all out of order.
