Bombalurina

First of all, let me just say Bombalurina is my kind of queen-she's bold, brassy, intelligent, beautiful, and ever so proud of it, too.  Always a conscious role model for the impressionable kittens, Bombalurina positively exudes confidence and feminine strength.  She's sensual and thick-skinned, with that smug, unattainable air the toms love.  She loves to lead them on, but it seems only one tom truly has her heart-the Rum Tum Tugger (who else?) The difference is she seems to have his as well.  In other words, both gregarious cats like to play, but when all is said and done, you'll find them together.
The other cat practically glued to Bombalurina's side is the understated, skittish Demeter.  I estimate the two queens are approximately the same age, and some even believe them to be sisters.  Together, Bombalurina and Demeter sing the song "Macavity" to educate the kittens while the toms conduct a search for Old Deuteronomy, and the duo provide backup vocals together for many other songs, including "the Gumbie Cat" and "Mistoffelees". 

Ever the scene-stealer, Bombalurina adores being the center of attention. She has the 'been there, done that' kind of attitude that makes her seem very experienced. Although she acts mischievous, she is far from a kitten. She is a fully mature queen who may, in fact, be approaching feline middle-age. Whatever her age, however, deep inside Bombalurina, behind that jaded, insatiable exterior, I'm sure lurks a queen who longs for her very own knight in shining armor :).
