Nick, the late miller’s youngest son, inherits a magical cat with a gift of the gab. Soon Nick and Puss are embroiled in a complex scheme to persuade the King and Queen that Nick (masquerading as the Marquis of Carabas) is suitable husband material for the Princess Scarlett. But to win her hand, Nick has to contend with a jealous suitor in the shape of an ogre.
