Synopsis
Left only a pair of second-hand boots by his father, and rejected by his boorish older brother, Jack sets out to win the hand of the princess Gwendolyn with the help of his resourceful cat who has gratefully taken possession of the boots. Threats posed by an ogre who lives nearby, the helpless predicament of the royal party as they travel through the ogre's territory, and Jack's stumbling attempts to woo Gwendolyn are handled neatly by the clever Puss.
