Cat Out of the Bag Alert!  This review contains spoilers for this film!

Synopsis: An offbeat, independent comedy in which a man who is going through a nasty divorce and partially demoted at work is pushed over the edge by the disappearance of his beloved pet cat Goliath.

Kitty Cameo: Goliath (played by Minou) is really only seen in photographs at the beginning of the film and in the missing posters the man posts around town.

Kitty Carnage Warning! Unfortunately the man finds Goliath dead on the side of the road.  The footage of this is graphic, although at the end of the film they assure the audience no animals were hurt during the making of the movie.

Cat Burglar (Scene Stealer): At the end of the film the man goes to the animal shelter where several cats are seen.
