Chessur

Chessur, (also known as Cheshire Cat), is a character in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland.

Alice in Wonderland
He appears as a grey, light blue striped, turquoise eyed tabby cat in which he resides in a misty and mysterious looking forest called Tulgey Wood. He only ever walks once, and that's when he looks back to Alice when he takes her to tea with the Hare and Hatter. His main use of transportation is floating in the air.

He is encountered by Alice and offers to purify her Bandersnatch claw marks on her arm, but she declines and says she will be fine when she has woken up but he insists on wrapping it, which Alice allows him to do. He then guides Alice to the mad tea party. Then he appears and seats himself at the end of the table and spends time with them, stirring his tea all the while. The Mad Hatter accuses him of betraying them when the jabberwocky first attacked by disappearing, and that it was his fault after the cat says, "All this talk of blood and slaying has put me off my tea. The Cheshire Cat denies that it was his fault and is yelled at and insulted by the Hatter, until Mallymkun yells angrily, "Hatter!"

When the Knave, Bayard, and the Red Knights approach, he disappears, when the March Hare tries to hide behind him.

Later on, he helps the Mad Hatter during his execution by sparing his life, taking his place while wearing the Mad Hatter's hat and vanishing before he is executed, then the hat floats up into the air, and the Cheshire Cat head appears under it and he wishes everybody a good morning. In the movie he had always wanted the Mad Hatter's hat, but appears later and returns it, then asks Alice how her arm is doing before evaporating.

He appears throughout the movie but always disappears when something disgusting is mentioned or seen. In the battle, while Alice is fighting the Jabberwocky, the March Hare hides behind the Cheshire Cat who whips his tail at his own face and then evaporates. After the battle and the Jabberwocky is slain, when the Red Queen's knights turn against her, and she is captured, her crown suddenly lifts off her head, floats away, and goes to the White Queen's head, and the Cheshire Cat, who had been holding it and was invisible, appeared, and put the crown on her head, and then disappears. he is last seen grinning at Alice before she drinks the Jabberwocky blood. Here, his disappearing abilities are described as "evaporation". His name is given as Chessur (Chess for short), and he is voiced by Stephen Fry.
