Big fan of mistoffelees with what looks like a little goatee or beard or whatever it is I think it should be done more often

ETCETERA 💪💪💪

I keep a few very special Jellicles in my pocket, and she's one of them :)

(+ some Etcetera headcanons under the cut!!!!!!!)

She was named Etcetera because of her incredibly talkative personality -- Munkustrap taught her to use 'et cetera' in place of listing every single thing she thinks of, because she would go on for what felt like forever while discussing topics of interest (however, Etcetera didn't realize that she only had to use it once at the end of a sentence instead of in-place of words, so she'd end up saying "et cetera" over and over in a row, and the name stuck)

Gus is like a grandfather to her, and often tells her stories of his theatrical days. Etcetera always wants Gus to join her in reenacting his stories; Jellylorum once explained to Etcetera that Gus can't move like used to due to his palsy, but Etcetera didn't quite understand -- she often mimics him when she sees his paws trembling because she thinks he's just giddy (as Etcetera gets very shaky and tense when she's giddy herself)

She's an incredibly hyperactive kitten who lives full-time in the junkyard. She was homed several times, but the shelter runners couldn't find a home that would keep her due to her energy. Her best friends are Jemima, Electra, and Victoria; but because all three have homes away from the junkyard, Etcetera is oftentimes left to her own devices. She very much enjoys scampering through the junkyard and playing with any stringy things she can find

She desperately wants a mane like Tugger's -- her heart is simple and yearns for cool-ass bling

Never-before-published model sheets for canned Amblin Cats movie 🐈‍⬛✏️👁️

Hi all. As promised, I am sharing a comprehensive .PDF of model sheets that were created for the Amblimation Cats movie that never saw the light of day. Most of these model sheets have not been published or posted anywhere on the internet as far as I'm aware. I'm going to get ahead of some questions for the good of the order:

Are these real? I certainly didn't sit and create all 117 pages myself for the sake of an elaborate hoax!

How did you get these? I work in the animation industry. A senior coworker caught wind of my cats obsession and said he had the Xeroxes and asked if I wanted him to bring them in. Internally, I flipped my shit. And then I digitized his hard copies.

How did your coworker get these? They were found in the library of the university he used to go to. (Not super unusual at an arts school in southern California.) He made photo copies back then and has been holding onto them. The thing is he knows nothing about CATS; isn't a CATS fan, never seen it, etc. I guess he just felt it was something worth holding on to!

Can you upload better quality? Unfortunately what you're seeing as good as the quality gets. These are scans of photocopies from the 90s. There is nothing to be done for the crunchiness.

What about (missing characters)? I'm showing you everything I was personally given!

Which character is (nondescript drawing of a cat)? If the image isn't labeled, your guess is as good as mine! I put all the misc./unlabeled cats in the back of the PDF. The only exceptions are ones that I felt were abundantly obviously supposed to be a specific character.

Who are the artists? Unfortunately, there's no way I can tell for sure. None of the sheets are signed. I wouldn't even go about guessing because many concept artists can perfectly emulate more "well known" illustrators whose styles were sought after. My coworker said he might be able to figure out who the draftsmen were; until then it's a mystery! If I find out, I will come back to this post and update it with that information.

Are these all the model sheets ever? No! In fact, there are model sheets that have been posted online that are not in the bundle I was given. I have no idea of the sum total of model sheets in existence.

Where's the link?! Here it is! Have fun kitties!

i love how slowly munkustrap gets back up when grizabella shows up for the third time.

he's had ample time to stand up by the time the camera goes over him. look. the slow drop of his arm. the twitchy curl of his fingers. i'll put money on him standing there bowed over fully aware who it is (he doesn't run to check for a threat, he barely reacts in spite of everyone else's immediate hostility) and trying to go through the seven stages of grief as fast as possible so he doesn't end up on kitty news.

this is the face of a man PRAYING it's Not This Shit Again and simultaneously realizing god doesn't love him.

The only scene where Veerle is singing without a dub.

Comparing it with her voice from the Dutch tour and the Veerle recordings I always listen to—this is unmistakably Veerle's real voice!! (Probably!!)
