The True Story of Puss 'N Boots (La Véritable Histoire du chat botté) (also known as The True History of Puss 'N Boots) is a 2009 French-Belgian-Swiss animated film directed by Jérôme Deschamps, Pascal Herold and Macha Makeïeff. It is based on Charles Perrault's story "Puss in Boots" about a cat who talks and walks on his hind legs while wearing magical boots.
An English dub of the film was recorded in Montreal in 2010. A slightly alternate dub featuring William Shatner in the title role was recorded for the US in 2011.

Notes[]
- The US end credits only credit Shatner and oddly enough the French cast.
- Although, the very end of the credits would reveal the full English cast, including Richard Dumont as Puss despite being re-dubbed.
- There is one English trailer that is completely different from the official dub, however it is unclear if it was just the trailer alone that was dubbed or if it was for a whole other dub of the film.[1]
