Cheshire Cat

The Cheshire Cat is a fictional character from Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." Notable for its distinctive grin and ability to appear and disappear at will, the cat embodies whimsicality and the nonsensical nature of Wonderland. It often provides cryptic advice, famously stating, "We're all mad here," illustrating the theme of absurdity in the story. The character symbolizes the fluidity of identity and perception, as it leaves behind its grin even after vanishing, emphasizing the transient nature of existence and the complexity of understanding one's self in a chaotic world.
