The dog Ginger, which belongs to one of the couples, barks at the cat from inside the motor home. The attendant tells them that the cat, whose name is Sam, “eats dogs like that for lunch.”

The entire time the attendant is talking to the men (Peter Fonda and Warren Oates), the cat is hissing, yowling and screeching in his arms. It’s little wonder, the way the guy is holding him and jerking the poor cat around!
