Rumpus Cat
The Great Rumpus Cat is a fictional character from T.S. Eliot's 1939 book ''Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats'' and in Andrew Lloyd Webber's 1981 musical, ''Cats''. The Great Rumpus Cat appears in the poem " Of the Awefull Battle of the Pekes and the Pollicles." The poem describes a contentious encounter between a Peke and a Pollicle dog which eventually leads to the participation of other dogs and a great deal of barking, heard throughout the park. The Great Rumpuscat nonchalantly intervenes and scatters the dogs merely by his threatening appearance and a single great leap. The Great Rumpuscat is described as having blazing eyes, great jaws, and a fierce and hairy presence. Of the dogs in the poem, the Pollicle is referring to many types of dogs, whereas the Pekes, Poms, and Pugs all correspond to actual breeds. The Pollicle is a dog who is a stray and wilder than pets. In ''Cats'', the Jellicles put on a small play when their leader, Old Deuteronomy, arrives. The story ...

Recreation Room
A recreation room (also known as a rec room, rumpus room, play room, playroom, games room, or ruckus room) is a room used for a variety of purposes, such as parties, games and other everyday or casual activities. The term ''recreation room'' is common in the United States, while the term ''rumpus room'' is common in Australia, New Zealand and Canada; in the United Kingdom, the preferred term is ''games room''. Often children and teenagers entertain their friends in their home's rec room, which is often located in the basement, away from the main living areas of the house. Usually it is a larger space than a living room, enabling the area to serve multiple purposes and entertain moderately large groups.
