Veerle Casteleyn as Jemima in the 1998 Cats video.

In the musical play Cats, Jemima is a calico kitten and, while usually a chorus cat, plays a role in accepting Grizabella; she is among several kittens (the others being Victoria, Electra, and Etcetera) who trust Grizabella and are pulled away in efforts to accept her. A wide-eyed innocent with an ethereal voice, she truly hears Grizabella's plea for re-acceptance and encourages the older cat for a chorus in "Memory".


Sarah Brightman originated the role and Veerle Casteleyn played Jemima in the 1998 video.
