The Cheshire Cat is first introduced once players enter the Wonderland Realm in Disney Dreamlight Valley. The character is found lounging on the red tree in one corner of the forest, giving players vague instructions on how to find Alice. It first sends you to find smiles in the forest and then to get the necessary ingredients for the More Time recipe. If that's not enough, players will need the character's help again to help tiny Alice, and the Cheshire Cat just sends you to get more materials for the Contrary Perfume.

It's quite tricky to unlock the Cheshire Cat as a character in Disney Dreamlight Valley, as it loves riddles and causing mayhem all over Dreamlight Valley. Some characters, like Scrooge McDuck, will get tangled up in the chaos, and it's your duty as leader to help them and stop the Cheshire Cat from causing more trouble. Although it wouldn't be weird for the cat to make other people's lives harder, as it proved time and time again in the original Alice in Wonderland​​​​​, it was a menace more than a help for poor Alice.
