Lisa Daniels .. Cate Bauer.. Voice of perdita?

So IMDB lists Cate Bauer as the voice of Perdita.. and I'm more likely to believe that, and Lisa Daniels is credited as just "voice". But it's "common knowledge"**** that Lisa Daniels was the voice of Perdita

****I say "common knowledge" because often times she is given credit elsewhere as the voice of perdita, Like I see on various websites "Lisa daniels as the voice of Perdita" and when she appears at conventions (for autograph signings, etc)

can someone please explain if they know anything?

Maybe both of them played Perdita. It sounds like her voice changes about halfway through.

I was thinking about doing a post on this particular subject myself. I just recently saw Lisa Daniels in a 1950s horror film called "Man in the Attic", and in it she sounded a lot like how Perdita did when speaking her first line ("dogs were having puppies long before our time"). My guess is that Lisa said that one line, and Cate did the rest. Perhaps a last minute filler.

On the other hand, a detail that IMDb doesn't seem aware of is that the talent list in the opening credits includes live-action models, as well as voices. Mary Wickes, for instance, was the model for Cruella de Vill, Helene Stanley for Anita.
