2. Cats do feature prominently in horror films, just more as a plot device as you can see in this compilation of clips, It’s Just a Cat

3. In the 50s SciFi movie “The Incredible Shrinking Man”, there was just such a scene! Man unknowingly exposed to cloud of atomic radiation…begins to shrink in size…wife puts him in dollhouse…housecat sticks paws and legs through windows and generally terrorizes shrinking man, who continues to “downsize” until he becomes infinitesimal…philosophical conundrums ensue…movie ends. Cat lives happily ever after.

7. Why don’t they make horror movies with overgrown housecats from scientific experiments gone awry?

   Think of all that cat fur. Think of the litter box. The horror! The horror!

8. [Ceiling Cat] – The gap is shrinking! Shrinking, I meow!

9. It can’t be *that* rare. The original _Star Trek_ did it – episode: “Catspaw”.

10. Giant Cat is not horrible. Giant Cat is a good idea. Then the human could get on the cat and fall asleep instead of vice versa.
