Actually,
The term puss (as in pussycat or Puss in boots) may come from Dutch (from "poes", a female cat, or the diminutive "poesje", an endearing term for any cat) or from other Germanic languages.

Pussycats (and pu$$y-willows) have been around a LOT longer than a slang word for a woman's genitalia.

Because their fur is nice and soft. This is not a dirty word.

its a reference from the pussy willow. the softness of a pussy willow reminds many of a cats fur coat.

There's an old English nursery rhyme that goes "I love little pussy, her coat is so warm, ............ and will do her no harm."
