Penelope Pussycat is an animated cartoon character, featured in the Warner Bros. classic "Looney Tunes" animated shorts as the protagonist of the Pepé Le Pew shorts. Although she is typically a non-speaker, her "meows" and "purrs" (or "le mews" and "le purrs") were most often provided by Mel Blanc using a feminine voice. The character did not originally have a permanent name; she was alternately referred to as Penelope, Fifi and Fabrette, and animator Chuck Jones' 1960 model sheet simply calls her "Le Cat". The name "Penelope Pussycat" was created retroactively for Warner Bros. marketing.
