Puss in Boots

A miller died and left his youngest son nothing but a cat. The boy lamented his fate, but the cat spoke up: 'Give me a bag and a pair of boots, and you shall see what I can do.' The cat caught rabbits and partridges in the bag and presented them to the king as gifts from the 'Marquis of Carabas.'

Puss then tricked the king into believing his master was wealthy. He persuaded the ogre who owned the finest lands to transform into a mouse, then ate him and claimed the castle. When the king arrived, he found the miller's son in splendid estate and gave him his daughter in marriage. The cat became a great lord.
