Age:
Young adult.
Description:
Pending
Parents:
Unknown. (IMO Demeter is the result of a relationship between Grizabella and an unknown tom)
Siblings:
Unknown. (Suspect Bombalurina of being Demeter's older sister in certain CATS productions)
Friends:
Bombalurina is especially close to Demeter, often taking up as her protector when she feels Demeter is in someway being threatened. Likewise Demeter will go to Bombalurina during Macavity "scares", clinging to her side. Many CATS fans believe that the two are related, in some way, and shared a past with Macavity, which could explain their closeness.
Mates:
Generally accepted; Alonzo, Macavity (a past relationship), or Munkustrap.
IMO: You can get my opinion on Demeter's mates on my Demeter And...page.
History:
There are hundreds of theories about Demeter's past, especially ones that involve Macavity. Many speculate that Demeter worked for Macavity, and the two fell deeply in love. Unfortunately, something went wrong, and their relationship, at least on Macavity's side, became extremely violent. Beatings, rape, and even torture are mentioned. The terrified Demeter, who as been mentally, physically, and verbally abused, eventually escapes Macavity's clutches and joins the Jellicle tribe. Her first Jellicle Ball follows pending.
