I am a cat lover and when I was 12, I was sitting on the couch with my dad and my sister watching TV and we happened to see previews of a horror movie called "Man's Best friend" where the dog goes up a tree after a terrorized orange cat and swallows it whole and alive. I have never recovered from seeing that years later. Everyone I have talked to said the scene were a couple of terrible puppets with a funny scene.

Things like that can definitely be traumatizing for little ones!

@SouthernFlame It especially terrorized me because ginger cats are my favorite and it was such a horrible scene to watch too. What's worse is that there were two kids in the movie that had to watch that happen.

@Summershy

I can understand how that would be extra traumatizing. :/

@Summershy

Being fake doesn't help how traumatizing it is to see!

@Summershy

scary movies dont seem to be your cup of tea! I dont blame you. I remember watching Carrie as a 7 year old and didnt sleep for a week without night terrors. So believe me when I tell you that movies can be traumatizing indeed and it doesnt matter that its not real.

@SouthernFlame the only horror movie that didn't give me nightmares at 4 was The Shining

@SouthernFlame Unlike Man's Best Friend, which has a soft vore scene with the cat, the Shining is very strong

@SouthernFlame there are some horror movies where you expect people and other animals to die because of the type of characters. In Man's Best Friend though, one would expect a dog to kill a cat and tear it apart or rather a cat would run up tree. However, one would not expect a dog to climb a tree and swallow and cat whole and alive like that.

However, I know that it would be impossible for a dog to do any of the things that Max did to poor Boo (Read Wikipedia about the movie- it's basically a Frankenstein type of a movie only about a dog that you evidently feel sorry for.)

In real life:

1. If Max walked onto the limbs- being that he is a Siberian Mastive (sp?) He would break the limbs trying to eat Boo like that because his throat would not be flexible like a snake

2. He would be the one who not only dies fall but choking on Boo who's claws and teeth would destroy his throat and neck and I think in most cases Boo would end up getting away alive badly injured while Max dies
