Nobody:

That one Japanese Tugger design:

idk if this is anything but what if the jellicle moon is just any full moon and a ‘year’ is one lunar cycle (so basically about a month)

cats don’t live as long as humans so their years are a lot shorter, we know this. personally i feel like measuring a cats life in years would be like measuring your age in decades or something.

Recently, a bunch of model sheets for Amblimation's unmade Cats movie were uncovered by @eye-may. I recently had the pleasure of looking at them, and wanted to show you some of my favorites:

Grizabella looks pretty much exactly how I expected her to look. I don't really have any qualms about this one.

This version of Macavity is the one that really stood out the most to me. I like the simplicity.

Old Deuteronomy, like Grizabella, looks pretty much how I expected him to look. I don't really have any complaints about this one.

Oddly enough, I think this image of Demeter is the one I like best. Also, judging by the fact that all the images of Demeter we get here have no stripes, I think they were going to combine her and Victoria's characters.

These are supposed to be Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer. Reportedly, Steven Spielberg wanted them to be the protagonists of the movie, and it shows here.

I like this version of Rum Tum Tugger the best, since I feel it best captures his raw energy.

On the other hand, I do like the idea of Rum Tum Tugger having a fanboy!

Out of all the Mistoffelees designs on these model sheets, I liked this one best, since it looks the least silly out of all of them. Mr. Mistoffelees is not supposed to be a silly character.

Gus the Theatre Cat looks just perfect here!

I'm not sure how they could include Growltiger in this movie; after all, he isn't actually a living character. Maybe a flashback?

Well, those are my two cents. If you want to see more (or if you don't believe me) click on the above link and find out.

every once in a while I remember this was an actual thing that happened and not a fever dream I had (x)

People tend to give a lot of importance to their astrological sign, but we all know that what really matters is WHICH ONE of the Jellicle Cats you identify with the most 😌

i am alw’s #1 hater and also simultaneously his #1 listener

[facts-i-just-made-up]

how many teeth do hippos have, dearest propaganda pop?

Three- The tooth it shows the world, the tooth known only to other hippopotomae, and the tooth that only the hippo itself knows.

Maybe this is common knowledge but here’s the cut 2nd verse of Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer from the 98 film

I believe it was literally put it one of the interviews they did (hence jo gibb’s voiceover) and I have no idea why

The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals and Cats are structurally the same musical in that they both open with an establishing number, followed by a long barrage of "I am" songs, culminating in one massive "I want" song for our main hero. This is immediately followed by the death of our main hero and a closing number without any real resolution. This is my hot take.

First full costest for Rumpleteazer now that my leotard is finished. I'm so happy with how this costume turned out! Can't wait to take this costume out and about this summer! The wig was made by @pixiedustjellicle and the rest was made by me!

Happy anniversary to Cats!!

Throwback to when Betty Buckley got Trump's ass for playing Memory at a rally back in 2020

Is the cats tag active enough now to appreciate my head canon that victoria, like many blue eyed white cats irl, is Deaf and that's why she doesn't have any solos. She may or may not be siblings with mistoffelees but he is the only one who can translate for her so they're close.

The timeline of Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat all the way to Starlight Express has me believing ALW was in a weird religious psychosis throughout the 70's and 80's.

" ✨️ Jellicle cats are black and white

Jellicle cats are rather small

Jellicle cats are merry and bright

And pleasant to hear when we caterwaul

Jellicle cats have cheerful faces

Jellicle cats have bright black eyes

We like to practice our airs and graces

And wait for the Jellicle Moon to rise

Jellicle cats develop slowly

Jellicle cats are not too big

Jellicle cats are roly poly

We know how to dance a gavotte and a jig

Until the Jellicle Moon appears

We make our toilet and take our repose

Jellicles wash behind their ears

Jellicles dry between their toes

Jellicle cats are black and white

Jellicle cats are of moderate size

Jellicles jump like a jumping jack

Jellicle cats have moonlit eyes

We're quiet enough in the morning hours

We're quiet enough in the afternoon

Reserving our Terpsichorean powers

To dance by the light of the Jellicle Moon ✨️"

Sadly I'm not some cute girl on the internet but I'm actually just a raging autistic who will rant about a musical about trains and a musical about cats on command
