Another cat expression is "to like a Cheshire cat." Many people have read those words in the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by British writer Lewis Carroll.
In the story, a little girl named Alice finds a cat smiling, or grinning, from ear to ear. She is very surprised. She dose not know cats can grin.
"Ah," she is told, "This cat is special. It comes from Cheshire." That is a county in England. Whenever the Cheshire cat leaves, its tail disappears first. Then its body. It wide grin is the last thing you see.
