Felidae/YMMV: Difference between revisions

***** Well, they are the ones that are most easily available, and least likely to be spayed.

* [[Tear Jerker]]: Given the nature of both the film and the books, how hard any potential [[Tear Jerker]] moment hits is highly subjective. One of the strongest is the story told to Francis by {{spoiler|the lynx}} in the second book, and the [[Last of His Kind|sad]] [[Walking the Earth|fate]] he's resigned himself to.

** Not to mention cats fucking like rabbits. Or rather, like cats, which is to say, [[The Immodest Orgasm|loudly and violently]].

** The cult that holds ''suicide pacts''. [[Deadpan Snarker|Francis]] even [[Lampshades]] this- "What I was watching wasn't exactly a scene out of [[The Aristocats]]."

** {{spoiler|The lynx}} from the second book. He was {{spoiler|brought to Germany from Canada with a group of other lynxes to repopulate the wild. However, since the Canadian lynx's primary food source, the snowshoe hare, was no longer available to them, some members of the group starved to death. A few others were shot by farmers after they attacked livestock in desperation, and the remaining lynxes eventually scattered.}} He's now alone, and will probably remain so for the rest of his life.

** [[Iron Woobie|Francis]]. Moreso in the books, wherein the things he sees and goes through have a much more obvious effect on him - more than once he breaks down crying. (Can you really blame him?)

** The second book gives us {{spoiler|the wildcat tribe}}. Being {{spoiler|brought into strange territory where they found it almost impossible to survive}} is what fueled the rage towards humans and domestic creatures alike, and eventually what led to the murders. As with {{spoiler|Claudandus}} above, this is an arguable case.
