Bustopher Jones

Bustopher Jones, sometimes referred to as Busto, Bustopher, or Jones, is a twenty-five pound black-and-white tomcat with thick, soft, immaculate fur and white markings on his back paws, resembling spats. He lives under the name Sanders (that's because the name Mr. Sanders is written above his front door) in a fancy house located near the Junkyard. Bustopher is not (as he himself admits) very intelligent, but does have good ideas sometimes. Unfortunately, he has a great difficulty communicating these to others. And he is also known as well-behaved, imaginative, nice, nurturing, idealistic, even-tempered, thoughtful, happy, eager, protective, optimistic, outgoing, heroic, patient, oblivious, outspoken, helpful, benevolent, empathetic, affectionate, respectful, encouraging, dependable, warm-hearted, assertive, relaxed, daring, whimsical, impulsive, naive, no-nonsense, ignorant, educated, docile, trustworthy, foppish, gluttonous, dapper, hedonistic, exuberant, dreamy, positive, observant, open-minded, honest, brave, endearing, artistic, righteous, persistent, organized, obsequious and honorable.

Bustopher loves curry more than anything else. He is the main feline character in the series and his two closest friends seem to be Mr. Mistoffelees (his son) and Sheldon Cooper, though he is also close friends with Rum Tum Tugger, Skimbleshanks, Grizabella, Jellylorum, Tumblebrutus, Old Deuteronomy, and Priya Koothrappali.

Bustopher was originally played by Brian Blessed, who also played Old Deuteronomy. Stephen Hanan took over the role for the Broadway production''. ''James Barron played Bustopher in the 1998 film. Christopher Gurr played him in the new Broadway revival.

Description
He is a black and white tuxedo cat. Due to his constant lunching at clubs, he is "remarkably fat" ("a 25-pounder"). He has a "fastidious black" coat and apparently has white markings on his paws which resemble spats.
