My daughter and myself are big fans of Disney's Alice In Wonderland, so when we saw the Cheshire Cat Medium Soft Toy whilst browsing in The Disney Store, it went straight in to the basket!

Alice In Wonderland was a 1865 novel writen by Lewis Carroll. There are many adaptations of the story but my favourite is the animated Disney classic that was released in 1951. Despite the age of the film, it still looks as good now as it did then. It tells the story of a little girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit hole one day and meets a bunch of 'interesting' characters as she attempts to make her way home. These characters include Tweedledee and Tweedledum, The Queen of Hearts, The Mad Hatter, The White Rabbit, The Caterpillar and of course, The Cheshire Cat.

The Cheshire Cat Medium Soft Toy is 18cm tall and 24cm wide, which is a good size - the perfect size for cuddles in fact! The only downside of the size is that it's a little too big to take out and about. My daughter usually keeps him in her bed. The Disney Store website describes it as having a beanbag body, but to be honest it doesn't feel like a beanbag toy to me - I think this is a good thing as I don't think it would be as squishy if you could feel the beanbag. It's fur is really soft too. It looks very cute, totally pink with light pink and darker pink stripes over his body and tail. He has little black felt claws and his head is totally pink, with an adorable face (yellow eyes, pink nose, whiskers, little ears on top) which includes his most recognisable feature - his big white Cheshire Cat grin! His smile extends all the way across his face and he looks just like he does in the film, there's no mistaking this cat. He's positioned in a laying down pose, with his belly on the floor and his feet out in front of him.

It costs £18.00 which may seem a little expensive for a soft toy that doesn't do anything, however it does look nice and it is good quality. It can be brought from most Disney Stores and from The Disney Store website. The toy is a Disney Store exclusive which means you wont find it elsewhere - there is a small badge/patch on the cats back end which reads 'Genuine, Original, Authentic Disney Store'. It is suitable for children 12+ months (so that includes adults!). There aren't any removable parts (buttons etc) but I suppose the fur could be a potential hazard for young babies if they managed to rip a chunk off and decided to eat it!

Overall this is a lovely soft toy for fans of Alice In Wonderland/Cheshire Cat.
