* This is featured multiple times in ''[[A Series of Unfortunate Events]]'', both the movie and the books, with the Incredibly Deadly
* While Hagrid from ''[[Harry Potter]]'' is far from a cute young girl, his attachment to his exotic pets does fit. He names the three-headed dog Fluffy, he is upset when he has to send his baby dragon Norbert away, and he cries buckets when the giant spider (Acromantula) Aragog dies. He was expelled from Hogwarts for keeping dangerous critters as pets, including Aragog. Harry and Ron are often at a loss to understand him, though the Trio does recognize why he is upset over the scheduled execution of an innocent hippogriff.
** Hagrid ''himself'' is a version of this. Giant hairy scary guy who can bend rifle barrels with one hand comes knocking down the door? If the Dursley's were proper foster parents instead of assholes who didn't give a crap about Harry, they'd probably freak out when Hagrid approached Harry. And when Hagrid is outed as a half-giant, many wizarding parents are terrified that he's a vicious monster who'll hurt their kids, when he's actually one of the gentlest, sweetest characters in the entire series.
