Macavity family
FATHER ALONZO MACAVITY as a child, wanted to be a dentist, but hated the sound of the dentist's drill. Strange that he has ended up being the master builder in Sylvania.
MOTHER CASSANDRA MACAVITY (born CARAMEL) is a bit of a stargazer and loves looking into the future. At the moment she is trying to 'see' what she will be making for the families' dinner tonight!
OLDER BROTHER MISTOFFELEES MACAVITY has spent his youth practising magical conjuring tricks which he now enthralls his younger brothers and sisters with. They all just love his 'now you see it, now you don't' as the vase of flowers disappears into thin air!
OLDER SISTER GRIZABELLA MACAVITY takes pride in her appearance, always dressed and groomed to perfection. She lists among her favourite things, clothes shopping, visiting the beauty salon and catching up on her beauty sleep.
BROTHER RUMPUS MACAVITY when allowed, loves helping his father. However he is very mischievous and once actually got stuck in a cavity wall that his father was building. (22 Jul)
SISTER ASPARAGUS MACAVITY has been taking cookery lessons and would like to end up being a master chef. She has read all the best books on cookery and is now giving her mother useful tips!
BABY SISTER SKIMBLE MACAVITY loves chattering away to herself. However at her young age, nobody can understand quite what she is saying!
TWIN BROTHER ETCETERA MACAVITY is a very creative little boy and loves playing with the building bricks that his daddy bought him. But sometimes he can be naughty and throws them around the room!
TWIN SISTER ELECTRA MACAVITY likes to cuddle up with her mother, but if mum’s busy she’ll find a cosy, sunny spot to have a sleep in. Electra only comes to life when it’s time to eat!

GRANDFATHER LEO MACAVITY's full name is Leonard, but for as long as he can remember everyone has always called him Leo. If Laurette ever calls him Leonard, he's usually in trouble as she only uses his full name when she's being stern with him! Leo's favourite pastime is playing chess and you can find him on a sunny afternoon sitting outside in the park enjoying a game of outdoor chess with one of his friends.
GRANDMOTHER LAURETTE MACAVITY (born JELLICLE) met Leo during a chess tournament while they were still at school. Laurette is a very logical thinker and was always the only person who could beat Leo in a chess match. Laurette became an architect and it was seeing all the models and plans in her study at home that inspired her son Alonzo to become a builder. Laurette still designs buildings, but now small Dolls Houses for her grandchildren, which are then built by the very talented Cuthbert Porridge.
