Top 10 Reasons Why Cats is the WORST

Stock up on salmon, dust down your scratch posts and prepare yourselves for some feline finery! Welcome to WatchMojo.com, and today we’re counting down our picks for the top 10 Movie Cats. For this list, we’ve looked at all cats to grace the silver screen, animated, live-action and everywhere in between!

#10: Snowbell “Stuart Little” (1999)

Up first we have a bad kitty, gone good! Snowbell is as harmless as his name suggests, once you get past his tough – though fluffy – exterior. When a walking, talking mouse arrives in the Little household, Snowbell reacts as any self-respecting cat would… He tries to eat him. This cat’s about as carnivorous as a cauliflower though, and, in time, the eponymous Stuart and his Persian playmate put aside their differences.

#9: Lucifer “Cinderella” (1950)

The clue is in the name for this one! In classical tradition, Lucifer is the fallen angel who eventually becomes Satan. In Disney’s “Cinderella,” Lucifer is the malevolent moggy who’s only marginally less wicked than his owner, the wicked step-mother! While Snowbell threatened to eat a mouse but couldn’t follow through, Lucifer is forever thinking of feasting on all manner of mice and animals! There isn’t too much that could be considered good about this cat – but he is very good at being bad!

#8: Mr. Jinx “Meet the Parents” (2000)

Also in:

Top 10 Awkward Meeting the Parents Movie Scenes

Fluffy cats are meant to be the most adorable, right? Wrong! Mr. Jinx is Ben Stiller’s cat-astrophe in “Meet the Parents.” The beloved pet of an intimidating in-law, this cat lives up to his name. Anything and everything goes wrong for Gaylord Focker in this movie, and the cat is almost always at the center of the problems. Whether it’s substituting human ashes for kitty litter or destroying the house, Focker’s hexed, he’s cursed, he’s jinxed!

#7: Binx “Hocus Pocus” (1993)

As a human, he’s known as Thackery, but in cat-form the surname will suffice… Binx is the first entirely black cat to make our list. This little guy’s as determined as he is domesticated, he’s as warm-hearted as he is whiskered! The victim of some magical malevolency, he is a man trapped inside a cat’s body, but he’s well worth leaving a saucer of milk out for. Black cats might be unlucky for some, but we’re fortunate to have this one on film!

#6: Mr. Bigglesworth “Austin Powers” franchise (1997-2002)

Also in:

Top 10 Horror Movie Sequels That Saved The Franchise

What do you get if you take Ernst Blofeld’s over-stroked Persian pussy-cat, and give it a Mike Myer’s makeover? Well… You get… This! Mr. Bigglesworth, along with Dr. Evil, was cryogenically frozen – in the process, he lost all of his hair. An unfortunate accident, he’s now as bald as brass, and quite hilariously hairless! Never far from Evil’s lap, it isn’t wise to make his owner angry… Because if Dr. Evil’s angry, then Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr Bigglesworth gets upset… Well, it ain’t good!

#5: Milo “The Adventures of Milo and Otis” (1986)

Milo’s a moggy with luck on his side! As this movie’s tagline reads, ‘he’s got nine lives and a best friend’! The orange tabby is as curious as they come, but his inquisitive nature leads to his questionable safety… Fortunately, Otis the pug is never too far behind, valiantly trying to save his friend. A story where the stage is shared, Milo plays his part to purr-fection! A cat you could try and keep as a pet, expect adventure on a daily basis!

#4: Sassy “Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey” (1993)

An incredible cat for an ‘incredible journey’! Sassy’s everything her name would have you believe she is! She’s smart-talking, a little sarcastic, and very brave! It’s one thing to find yourself a long way from home, but, as a cat, it’s another to be lost with just two dogs for company. This movie’s a battle of the species, and Sassy isn’t gonna lose! She’s also not gonna fail to find her owner! If ever a cat can be an inspiration, it’s now!

#3: Mr. Tinkles “Cats & Dogs” (2001)

Also in:

Everything We Know About Cats (2019) So Far

It’s not exactly a name that strikes fear into the heart of man, or even dog, but Mr. Tinkles is the power-hungry puss who’s bidding to, once and for all, kill off all things canine! If Sassy had an occasional dislike for dogs, Tinkles has an overriding, unending hatred for them! Just beating Kitty Galore to be the very best of the very bad on this countdown, Tinkles is furiously fluffy, or perhaps fluff-ily furious. Either way, he’ll have to pipe down, and settle for third place!

#2: The Cheshire Cat “Alice in Wonderland” (Various)

Also in:

Top 10 Alice In Wonderland Trivia

Arguably the most famous cat in all of fiction full stop, Lewis Carroll’s ‘The Cheshire Cat’ was brought effectively to the big screen by Tim Burton in 2010. Voiced by Stephen Fry, this is an animal of considerable complexity. Conversationally, he’s a little hard to engage with; philosophically he’s almost impossible to understand; logically he shouldn’t exist! All those things aside, there’s a silver medal hung around his neck, and deservedly so! Though we can also give a nod to the mischievous, singing feline from Disney’s animated “Alice in Wonderland” from 1951, there’s no question that Cheshire is a movie cat to remember! Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions. - Oliver “Oliver & Company” (1988) - Figaro “Pinocchio” (1940) - The Black Cat “The Black Cat” (1934) - The Aristocats “The Aristocats” (1970) - Jones “Alien” (1979)

#1: Puss in Boots “Shrek” franchise (2001-)

Also in:

Top 10 Things Only Adults Notice in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish

There are plenty of fairy tale things scattered across the “Shrek” franchise, but few have found as much fame as this feline! Inspired by the iconic outlaw Zorro, Puss has an Antonio Banderas Spanish accent, and an untimely inclination for fur balls. He can switch between a ‘butter wouldn’t melt’ baby-face to a ‘wouldn’t stand a chance’ swordsman, and he does it all with serious style! The literal and the figurative ‘cat’s whiskers’, he gets our cream, he’s feline extraordinaire! Do you agree with our list? Which cat did we miss?
