[Background]
Puss is from a world where every fairy-tale creature that ever was imagined live together in relative harmony. It is a world where kings rule and knights go on valiant quests to save princesses and were ogres like to live grumpily in their swamps. While this world may look much like a medieval era world, it has some more modern luxuries such as television sets, cameras and telephones.
There are some distinct places to visit in this chaotic world, such as the kingdom of Duloc, which was once ruled over by the diminutive Lord Farquaad; The Worcestershire Academy, a boarding school for teenagers, noted for it's jousting team. The most notable Kingdom is Far Far Away, which is far, far away from wherever you happen to be.
He is a swashbuckling orange striped cat with a spanish accent who wears boots and has great skill with the sword. When King Harold discovered that his daughter, Princess Fiona, had married and ogre and was living in a swamp, he was beside himself with rage. He hated Shrek, and wanted nothing more then to see him gone and his daughter wed to a true Prince Charming.
On a recommendation from Doris, the ugly stepsister who worked as a barmaid of the Poison Apple Inn, Kind Harold hired Puss In Boots to assassinate Shrek. Puss was known as a famous ogre slayer, the most fearsome in all the land, and was paid handsomely for the deed. Unfortunately, during is first direct assault on the ogre, Puss was waylaid by a hair ball that he had to stop and cough up.
Because Shrek chose to spare his life, Puss then declared that he owed a life debt to him. Although there is some tension/rivalry between Puss and Shrek's best friend Donkey (who seems nervous that Puss is taking his place as "annoying talking animal"), the three eventually become close friends and allies.
Puss becomes an important part of the plans that were conceived to steal a potion from the Fairy God Mother's Happy Ending Factory, and to stop Princess Fiona from drinking a potion that would make her fall in love with the first person she sees. The Fairy God Mother had planned to have her fall in love with her son Prince Charming so he would be next in line to be king.
Far Far Away is now ruled over by the newly crowned king Arthur "Artie" Pendragon, who came to power after his uncle, The Frog King Harold passed on. King Harold's ogre daughter, Princess Fiona and her husband Shrek were technically the next in line to the throne, but after spending a week making Royal appearances while the king was ill, decided it would be in their best interest - as well as the rest f the kingdom's- if they sought out Fiona's cousin Artie to take the thrown for them.

Puss is a very suave cat, knowing all to well that he is adorable and he uses it to his full advantage. Be it in a fight, or an attempt to woo the heart of a lady. He is extremely loyal to his friends, willing to put his life on the line for them if need be. He's valiant and daring and holds true to his vows, and kind to those in need.
He can be very mischievous and playful, offering wise-cracking sarcastic comments to diffuse -or create- a tense situation. But he is also a confidant who will offer the best advice he can give for a situation. At least, what he thinks would be the best advice. At times he can come off as arrogant, but he's actually just proud of who he is and what he's accomplished.
[Abilities]
Talking! Singing! Playing guitar!
Despite his small size, Puss is a brave and valiant swordsman, much along the lines of Zorro. He's very fast and nimble, but being a cat he isn't very strong so he utilizes his surroundings as best he can in a fight. Also, being a tomcat he comes equipped with claws, sharp teeth, and excellent balance.
One of his best defenses is his ability to be hear-meltingly cute, making enemies stop and go "Awwww" at how cute he is so he can take them by surprise. He's also pretty good at handling small children, ogre and dragon/donkies alike.
Despite all that, Puss is still a cat and subject to a lot of cat-like behavior. He gets cat hair on everything, has no shame in curling up on other peoples pillows, nor is he above licking himself in public. Getting caught playing with an Irresistible Dangling Thing however, that is cause for mortification and shame.
