The cat is around the Howlers and appeareantly roams a bit around in there, followed him a bit before a killed, they are nice boots as well, as you can tell, look for him in the general pond area south of the tower thats north of the fort (if i cant get it confussing enough for ya ;) )
I found him on accident. Went straight out from the fort to the howling knifeman spawn. I then saw the Grunge Pig and killed him. I failed to get the sword drop however. So I waited around for grunge to pop again. I'm roaming around the arwanites/howling knifement spawn and I see cheshire. He conned gray to me at 41. Got the boots.
Hung out for another 10 minutes went up the hill. Found grunge again and killed him the second time. Got the sword drop.
Never heard of this creature before, but he spawned 2 times in about 20 mins today while i was fighing howlers. he was on the slop that the bounders inhabit, and looks just like one.. so id say hes a rare spawning bounder. i had no idea he dropped anything for me ( i was actually musing over that) till i checked my inventory and saw these bad pupppys (kitties?) in with my loot. 100% cond 100% qlty 100% dur and a +10 bounus.. highest ive ever seen from a creature dropped item. i wish i could give solid directions to where he spawned, but the best i can do is: its pretty much not far, straight out from the fort, Just Before and down the hill from a single tower. at the bottom are the knifemen/arwanites and a small lake. he was on the hillside.
Solid boots for a inf, but also very nice for myself, a lvl 26 friar.
My friend was in northern Snowdonia and got chased by some Hibs, he lost them and was heading through that lake by the Maidens/Arawnites/Faery Frogs when the cat attacked him. Probably two or three weeks ago this happened. So, I have a pair of these boots (Infiltrator), they can't be dyed though, so they are dark grey forever.
Who cares, +13 dex and +2 stealth! Mmmmmm

I looked for 3 hrs straight for it . In and around both lakes, basically the entire southern half. Can you please leave more detail like night or day in or around the lake?
I've been leveling off bounders and everytime after I wipe them out I wander down by the water lookin for this fabled cat. I've also met others searching for it. All have come up empty. Has it been removed from the game? Inquiring minds wanna know.
I've been looking for a long time (off and from lev 20-37) and still no Cheshire. Killed Knifemen and howling maidens a whole level waiting for it. I am starting to think its a myth :)
