The word "Jellicle" first appears in "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats" by T. S. Elliot, specifically the poem "The Song of the Jellicles". The name "Jellicle cat" is derived from an attempt by T.S. Eliot's infant niece to say "dear little cat"

Jellicle Cat 

An incredibly annoying gender-confused feline.

Used in a sentence:

Because Jellicles are and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles would
Jellicles would and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do

as you can see, a jellicle cat is a terrible, terrible thing.
