Name: Cheese The Chao
Status: Cream's Buddy
Eye Color: Blue
Cheese is Cream's inseparable companion—not really a pet so much as a best friend who happens to be a chao. The signature pink bowtie makes her instantly recognizable among other chao, and even though she can't speak, she's got a way of winning people over with barely any effort.
The whole gender thing is kind of a mess across different versions. In the US dub, Chris clearly refers to Cheese as female when she goes missing. But the Japanese version is all over the place—she's called male in one episode and female in another, which tracks with how chao are technically genderless anyway. The video games, though, treat Cheese as male. So take your pick depending on where you're coming from.
