Can you please tell me if any family pets (cats or dogs) are killed or injured by this tiger? Thanks. filmklassik

no.no innocent animals harmed

Thanks, Pablo. That means I can watch it now. I don't mind when animal "villains" get killed (the shark in JAWS or the dog in CUJO, for example) but I really hate watching regular critters being killed or injured or even just terrorized onscreen.

Sigh....

It's all pretend. They are never harmed in the movie. If you can watch a movie with a vicious tiger maiming people but you are against it maiming cute little kitty or doggy then no offense there is something clearly wrong.

I can watch Al Pacino mowing down 400 humans in SCARFACE without ever batting an eye... no problemo... I must've seen it five or six times now. But under no circumstances could I ever watch OLD YELLER. Or even Walt Disney's THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY (2 dogs and 1 cat in constant jeopardy)

I make no apologies for this. It's just the way I am.

I guess we are just different.

That's okay, if all of us were the same life would be so boring.

Don't worry, the only housepet is the cat they used in a few scenes to stand in for the tiger. ( watch the paw to quilt square ratio when it jumps off the bed. Among other scenes.) And besides being either in a tiger stocking ( or to be fair maybe cgi'd ) the cat seemed fine.
