Puss in Boots
Puss in Boots makes his dashing appearance in Shrek II, when he is sent (appropriately enough if you are familiar with the original) to get rid of the ogre. But Shrek proves to be a more worthy opponent than the ogre of the original tale and Puss becomes a faithful, and quite entertaining, companion. Antonio Banderas gives wonderful charm and humor in voicing Puss onscreen.
