The Cheshire Cat is a mysterious pink and purple cat with a devious, mischievous personality. He has a permanent smile on his face and can disappear at will. He appears in the film Alice in Wonderland as an minor antagonist.
Alice in Wonderland
Alice encounters him in the woods and ask for directions back home so he directs her to The Mad Hatter and March Hare. After the confusing and useless visit Alice gets lost and encounters him again and the Cheshire Cat directs her to The Queen of Hearts for helps, but before she goes he warns her of The Queen's evil ways. During the visit the Cheshire Cat constantly humiliates the queen and she thinks it's Alice every time. While in court the Cheshire Cat repeats the insult Alice gives the Queen and it leads to the climactic chase. He was voiced by Sterling Holloway (who also previous played the role of the Frog in another film version of Alice in Wonderland) in the 1951 film and Jim Cummings in the House of Mouse TV series.
