DAY 19!! WHOOOOOO!!!

I am SO GLAD mistoffelees's day landed on a weekend day so that I could have extra time to devote to him lol. I had so many ideas for stuff I wanted to do but I decided to use the prompt as an excuse to draw a version of Mistoffelees that I haven't tackled yet...pierpaolo scida's misto from il sistina 2022!! MY BELOVED

naturally I had to redraw the part from the promos that had so many cats fan in a chokehold. I am one such.

enjoy!! <3

tecklenburg 2015's mistoffelees being an aerial contortionist/contortionist in general . . . wtf is happening

[sigmastolen]

cats merch idea that nobody will make: ballerina music boxes, but with victoria (white cat solo) and mistoffelees (turns obvi, the part where he flips his hands out during the brass blare). the victoria one would play the slow theme from the white cat solo. in my heart i want the misto music to be from the turns in the dance break but i don't think that would translate very well to a music box; realistically it would be a phrase of the "magical mister mistoffelees" chorus

you could probably make ones with other cats who have characteristic poses/music but i don't think it would translate as perfectly, you know?

A little look at the Cats PAC NYC production that I found, I believe this is the Pas de Deux moment, with Old D at the table there

Is Etcetera, Electra and Jemima also taller than Mistoffelees ,like pouncival and Tumblebrutus?

Or maybe they are the same height, or is it just that Jemima is still smaller than Mistoffelees? It would be pretty funny if the youngest of the tribe is taller than Mistoffelees too lol

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope you have a good new year <3

hhh Im getting my inbox out of order now but I think this question is great and I was too excited to answer it XD when it comes to character design I have always cared VERY MUCH about heights!!! and we love a short king uwu

so to answer your question...in the beginning, Jemima, Electra, and Etcetera, and Mistoffelees are all around the same height. however, as it has been established, the Conjuring Cat never remains on equal footing for terribly long before his younger compatriots inevitably outgrow him.

I like the idea of little Jemima growing to be at least a head taller than Mistoffelees lmao. Victoria and Pouncival on the other hand do end up being taller than him, but not by much. I think Electra ends up being pretty tall too; Etcetera enjoys a more middling stature when she's done growing.

so yes indeed, Mistoffelees is the smallest and slinkiest cat in the Junkyard! the good news is, at least in my fanverse, he's not too preoccupied with his unusually diminutive size. he does have magical powers after all, which makes up for...a lot XD and being small makes it all the easier to be sneaky and agile

Got really high last night and started conceptualising my masterpiece: The "Can You Smoke With This Jellicle" Tier List.

Explanations under the cut:

Old Deuteronomy: Absolutely the perfect choice for your blunt rotation. This man knows how to party and no one can tell me otherwise - but he'll also take good care of you and make sure you feel safe and comfy. He'll talk your ear off or listen to you, or let you sit in silence if you prefer. 10/10

Rum Tum Tugger: Very chill, very fun, very funny. Keeps things light hearted and doesn't lose his cool. The only possible issue is that there will 100% be sexual tension (not that that's necessarily a bad thing). 9.5/10

.

Electra and Etcetera: My crazy girls. They'll be loud and bouncy and fun, so you have to be ready for the energy, but they're hilarious. 9/10

Bombalurina: She's already the queen of gossip, with 0 inhibitions you can bet on her shit talking everyone she knows in the most entertaining way possible. Also, doesn't freak out and doesn't do anything that'd freak others out. 9/10

Bustopher Jones: Tells you absolutely insane stories in the most light-hearted and matter-of-fact way possible. 9/10

Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer: Just like Electra and Etcetera, these bastards are really fun to smoke with... But it's not beyond them to pull pranks and try and freak you out a bit, so it's better to be careful. 8/10

Skimbleshanks: Fine about 90% of the time, with a small chance of him getting wound up about something small and getting really fidgety and uncomfortable. 8/10

Jennyanydots: An absolute sweetheart and will take care of you, but it's hard to feel totally at ease with such a mother-figure because she still has to make sure everyone is behaving themselves. 8/10

.

Mr. Mistoffelees: Total show-off, will try to put on a performance. Not a bad thing, but seeing his magic tricks while high might really mess with you, and he's not the best at calming people down or comforting them. 7.5/10

Jemima: A sweetie, gets really spacey and zoned out. Really really cute, until she suddenly says some weird outta pocket cursed shit and then acts like it never happened. 7.5/10

Tantomile and Coricopat: Same as gemima, except they aren't sweet and they do it on purpose. Good if you want a prophecy or two. 7/10

Victoria: Really quiet and spaced out. She's very cuddly though, but otherwise not much fun. 7/10

.

Grizabella: Young Grizabella is definitely in hell yeah, but nowadays she's a lot more mellow. She doesn't do anything bad, but she isn't fun either. 7/10

Alonzo: Fun, but a smart-ass. You'll ask a jokey question and he'll spend an hour actually explaining it to you. He can be... A lot. 7/10

Asparagus: Tends to say really out of pocket shit for no reason, can make you really insecure. He doesn't mean harm but it's not pleasant. 6/10

Exotica: Does entirely her own thing, barely interacts with you. 5/10

Munkustrap: Still tries to be a perfectionist. It's a little funny, but mostly irritating. Tries to take care of you if you aren't feeling well and fails miserably because his coordination is shot. Poor baby. 5/10

.

Demeter: Can NOT smoke without freaking out immediately. 4/10

The Great Rumpus Cat: Won't smoke.

Gus: Gets anxious and sad, now you have to take care of him. 3/10

Cassandra: Same as Asparagus, but she does it on purpose. 3/10

Jellylorum: Same as Munkustrap, but she does it on purpose. 3/10

Pouncival and Tumblebrutus: Will do their utmost to freak you out and make you feel like shit for fun. Show you scary shit and then pretend like you're freaking out over nothing. Make you feel like you're hallucinating. Gaslighting pros. Do not.

.

Macavity: Will slip you fent.

I want someone to draw Misto wearing this

[look-how-the-lights]

Hot take but I don't think Cats would work as an animated film

I feel like a lot of the appeal of Cats (for me) is seeing different performers' little differences in portrayals, along with seeing real people doing that choreography

I feel like the real human element is what holds the appeal for me

Like seeing how people move and act, seeing how different performers and productions do their makeup, etc

I just think that would really get lost in animation vs live action
