Jellicle cats are not an actual breed, but are a type of black and white cat that feature in a poem by T. S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats. These cats are depicted as common black and white cats whose daytime nature is peaceful, pleasant and restful - but actively enjoy nighttime hours.

What is the basic story behind CATS the musical?
All the cats in CATS are having a giant dance but they have to wait for their leader, Deuteronomy, to come before they can begin. As they wait, several of the cats are introduced through songs (The Gumbie Cat, Mungojerrie & Rumpleteaseer, The Rum Tum Tugger, etc.). Eventually, Deuteronomy arrives but is later captured by the bad guy Macavity, but is once again returned to the clan after the magician cat (The Magical Mister Mistofellees) . Deuteronomy's biggest job is to pick the cat that will be reincarnated into another cat every year. There are two candidates that are presented this year: Gus the Theater Cat and Grizabella the Glamour Cat. All of the cats in the clan shun Grizabella because she left the clan to go find fame and fortune but now she is old and unwanted; she sings "Memory". Deuteronomy chooses her and she is sent to the "Heavyside Layer" which is basically the cats' version of heaven. All of the songs in CATS are based off of T.S. Elliot's "Book for Practical Cats" Songs in CATS (the movie in 1998) include: -"Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats" - "Tha Naming of Cats" -"The Gumbie Cat" -"The Rum Tum Tugger" - "Grizabella, The Glamour Cat" - "Bustopher Jones" - "Mungojerrie & Rumpleteaser" - "Old Deuteronomy" - "The Awful Battle of the Peakes and the Pollicles" - "Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball" - "Memory" - "The Moments of Happiness" - "Gus the Theater Cat" - "Skimbleshanks, the Railway Cat" - "Macavity: the Mystery Cat" - "Magical Mister Mistoffelees" - "Memory: Reprise" - "The Journey to the Heavyside Layer" - "The Addressing of Cats"
