Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that, although younger kids will enjoy the cute cat's antics, the movie is way too long to hold their complete attention. The kidnapping plot -- though treated humorously -- might frighten very young or sensitive kids. There is some scuffling and the appearance of guns, though no one is hurt. Otherwise, the movie is squeaky clean.

Sexual Content

Not applicable.

Violence

Kidnapping is part of the plot, although it's treated humorously. Voices are raised and younger viewers may find the abductors to be scary. In the final scene there is a scuffle between a detective and the kidnapper. Guns are used, but no one gets shot.

Language

The cat's name is D.C. for the phrase "Darn Cat," which is frequently yelled with frustration when he gets into mischief.

Social Behavior

The movie reinforces the idea that one should help out when others are in trouble, and that the police or other authority figures can be important allies. Also, it's important to trust your instincts -- even as a kid.

Consumerism

Not applicable

Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol

Canoe, a secondary character smokes a cigar.
