Origin[]

In order to rescue the Queen of the Field Mice, the Tin Woodman chopped off the wildcat's head while it was chasing her.

Notes[]
Although having his head severed, given the tendency of Oz characters to survive such injuries (see: Nick Chopper's head), it is highly likely the character is still alive.
