However, Oswald has already been convinced and joins him, much to Ortensia's annoyance. While first confused about the Mad Doctor 's arrival, Ortensia tries to stop Oswald from joining the Mad Doctor as she doesn't seem to trust him. The Doctor sings a stirring musical number, using the refrain " Help Me, Help You" to convince Oswald to join forces with him to save the Wasteland. Just as an earthquake begins to shake the street apart, the Mad Doctor and his Beetleworx creations arrive on the scene in a twisted sort of take on the Main Street Electrical Parade. After that, the scene changes to Oswald strolling down the street of a recently restored Wasteland. Ortensia returns in Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, first appearing in the 2D cutscene that functions as a recap of the original Epic Mickey. Ortensia and Oswald in Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two. When the Blot is destroyed, she is changed back to normal by the rainstorm of paint that heals the rest of Wasteland and reunites with Oswald and Oswald introduces Mickey to her. Her state leaves Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and several Bunny Children in her house in a deep depression, but many times, the memory of her leads to Oswald acting nicer to Mickey than usual. Still, she has some impact on the plot of Epic Mickey even in this state. (The Epic Mickey Graphic novel shows Ortensia sacrificing herself to protect Oswald by pushing Oswald to safety and getting hit by the Blot's attack instead.) In this statue-like state, she couldn't move and her voice is heard only faintly in one of the cutscenes. In the main story, Ortensia's paint was removed when the the Blot was being sealed, turning her into stone. In Epic Mickey, she is the mother of Oswald's 420 rabbit/cat children. To add some confusion, copyright synopses of some Mintz and Lantz shorts erroneously refer to Ortensia/Kitty as Fanny. In the post-Disney Lantz shorts, she was called "Kitty." The names for Oswald's love interests were never widely publicized, which is likely the reason she was given a new name in Epic Mickey, following the alliteration pattern of Mickey and Minnie's mirrored relationship. Ortensia was most often referred to as Sadie or Fanny in production materials of the original shorts and was known as Miss Zulu in the short Bright Lights, but never had a consistent, official name. She also appeared in Oswald shorts produced by Charles Mintz and later Walter Lantz. Often in the original Oswald shorts, Oswald would compete with Pete for her affection. Ortensia was very much a precursor to Minnie Mouse, as can be seen with her design. Starting with The Banker's Daughter, Ortensia replaced Oswald's former love interest, a much more feminine and sultry rabbit often referred to as Fanny in production materials. In the parks and much of her merchandise, she wears green instead of pink. She typically wears is a frilly light pink skirt with white bloomers under and a matching hat, though her appearance can vary. Similar in appearance to Oswald, Ortensia is an often tailless, anthropomorphic black cat. She is very defensive to those who try to mess with Oswald, Homer, her friends, family, and herself. Ortensia adores her baby brother, Homer and is usually oblivious to his naughtiness and pranks on Oswald. When in poetry mode, she tends to sing deep in a jazzy tone. With her love for him so strong, she will do anything no matter how crazy or dangerous. She spends every moment on Oswald and is very considerate. Ortensia tends to show a poetic, romantic, and dreamy personality.
