Earlier today, we learned that Temptations, a brand of cat treats, had produced its very own horror movie for cats calledwhat else?Scaredy Cat.

Griff the terrier, perpetually distracted, ignores the TV screen completely, opting to chew on his own foot in front of cinemas greatest achievements rather than glance over at them even for a moment. The jury is still out on Nugget the cat, who is always the last one to hear about good movies and hasnt watched Scaredy Cat yet but intends to catch up tonight, so no spoilers.
