Answer:

Macavity is an immortal creation by T.S. Eliot. He describes him as ‘the mystery cat, ‘the hidden paw’ and Napoleon of crime. T.S. Eliot created the poem after he got inspired by the character of Professor James Moriarty of Sherlock Holmes.

Macavity is mysterious because he is obscure to all of us. He is described as hidden paw because he does accomplish all the works of crime in complete secrecy. To justify that he is a criminal he defies law. Even the Scotland Yard and flying squad are unable to catch him, and thus Macavity is the reason of failure and hopelessness for the police agencies. Whenever there is a crime discovered Macavity is not to be found there.
