Old Gumbie Cat by T.S. Elliot (Summary and explanation)

I had gone through many articles online and I didn't really find anything good enough for students learning this chapter. So I think I should write this one down.
Old Gumbie Cat is a poem which revolves around a cat named Jennyanydots, who is said to be a practical cat.
During the day she sits in mats, stairs and steps in the house doing nothing at all. She does not show any activities until it is night time when she heads to the basement.
She does not like the behavior of the mice in the basement and she decides to teach them certain things which will change their behavior. She teaches them music, crocheting and tatting.
The next day she just sits around like always and is fond of sitting in sunny and warm spots. She also sits near the hearth to keep herself warm and comfortable.
At night she finds out that the mice are very noisy and really annoying and she thinks that maybe it is because they have an irregular diet.
Therefore she fries and cooks for them so that they remain quiet.
The Gumbie cat likes to play with curtains and sit in smooth places like the window sill.
She finds out that the only way to keep the cockroaches away from any destruction is to give them employment. So she turns them into boy scouts from disorderly louts and gives them good deed and employment for life.
The poem ends with the note that we should give three cheers for the Gumbie cat on who our households depends.
