Behind the scenes

 * The title is in reference to the Puss in Boots fairytale. (No, not the Shrek one.)
 * In his debut, Blabber was voiced by Elliot Field instead of Daws Butler (who voiced him in appearances after Blabber's debut).
 * Snooper saying, "One for the money, two for the show, three to get it," is a reference to Elvis Presley's song, Blue Suede Shoes.
