Jennyanydots

Jennyanydots is a fictional character from T. S. Eliot's 1939 poetry book Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats. She is also a principal character in the 1981 Andrew Lloyd Webber musical Cats, which is based on Eliot's work. Jennyanydots is a seemingly lazy Jellicle cat who sits around all day, but at night, she becomes very active as she rules the mice and cockroaches, forcing them to undertake helpful functions and creative projects to curb their naturally destructive habits.

Character
The titular character of Eliot's poem "The Old Gumbie Cat", Jennyanydots is an "Edwardian do-gooder" who enjoys making sure everything is in order. During the song, the character's "fat suit" is removed to reveal a bright orange and yellow flapper style costume underneath. Jennyanydots is a tabby cat with a coat that is covered with tiger stripes and leopard spots. ==Notable casting==
