Ortensia is an antropomorphic cat, who is also Oswald the Lucky Rabbit's wife,
Ortensia appeared in the Oswald shorts starting with The Banker’s Daughter, a now lost Oswald the Lucky Rabbit cartoon. Replacing Oswald's former love interest, a much more feminine and sultry rabbit named Fanny in production materials. Ortensia's original name during the production of the Oswald shorts was Sadie (as referenced in the title of the animated short: Sagebrush Sadie). However, 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.
As can be seen in her character design, she was a precursor to Minnie Mouse, sharing a similar face, outfit, and position as love interest to Oswald.
Often in the original Oswald shorts, Oswald would compete with Pete for her affection.
In the Epic Mickey series, she reprises her role of damsel in distress, being left inert after a battle against the Blot. She also appears to be the mother of Oswald's plentiful rabbit children, as a few are within her house in Ostown, uncharacteristically sad. She is revived at the end of the game, and reunites with Oswald.
In Epic Mickey 2, Ortensia takes a more active role, calling Mickey back to the Wasteland after the Mad Doctor’s return. She does not appear to approve of her husband’s penchant for fireworks, disapproving when some fall out of a hidden compartment.
As a side note, Ortensia is an Italian name that means "gardener", some of her Epic Mickey concept art heavily suggests she does gardening as her hobby.
