10. Lucifer
The Cat: Lucifer belongs to the ugly sisters in this seminal Disney flick, and sets about chucking various spanners in the works by attempting to snaffle Cinderellas rodent helpers. He was never going to turn out well with a name like that, was he?
If It Was A Dog: Cinderella would have spent so long cleaning up after him, shed never have made it to the ball in time.
9. The Black Cat
The Cat: Boris Karloffs Satanist lets his black cat out on the prowl to terrify the cat-phobic Bela Lugosi in this Universal horror classic. A supremely creepy kitty.
If It Was A Dog: Lugosi wouldnt have had anything to be scared about. Apart from all the Satanism, obviously
8. Figaro
The Cat: Figaro is Gepettos tuxedo cat, who enjoys a love-hate relationship with fellow pet Cleo, a goldfish, until the two are reconciled at the close of the film. See, even a cat can admit when its wrong.
If It Was A Dog: Hed have gnawed Pinocchios limbs to pieces before hed made it out of the house.
7. The Cowardly Lion
The Cat: A big old wuss of a lion, frightened of his own shadow on account of his lack of courage. His hearts in the right place, he just needs to man up a bit.
If It Was A Dog: A cowardly dog would be more forgiveable. A wimpy lion is a sorry thing indeed
6. Mr. Jinx
The Cat: The beloved pet of Robert De Niros fearsome patriarch, which makes it all the more disastrous when Ben Stiller loses him. Spray-painting a random stray just wont cut the mustard
If It Was A Dog: Would Stiller propose milking a dog? Probably, given the rest of the script
5. Puss In Boots
The Cat: Antonio Banderas voices the eminently flamboyant sword-swinger, with the swashbuckling kitty proving popular enough to carry his own movie last year. Bravo, senor.
If It Was A Dog: Are you familiar with the cartoon, Dogtanion? Itd be something like that
4. Shere Khan
The Cat: Arguably the most fiendish feline on the list, the regal Shere Khan wants to learn mans secret of fire, and will go to any lengths to get it. Know your place, Tibbles!
If It Was A Dog: Mowgli could have thrown a stick one way and made his escape through the other.
3. Lune
The Cat: Lune is the Prince of the Cat Kingdom, who offers his hand in marriage to the young girl who saves him from becoming roadkill. So unfolds another gorgeous fantasy from the Studio Ghibli team
If It Was A Dog: The little girl would have politely declined the offer, and got herself a tetanus jab.
2. Jonesy
The Cat: The Nostromos pet cat is a key narrative device in Alien, allowing Ripley to express her thoughts out loud, serving up some sudden appearance scares and generally giving the crew members an excuse to go wandering off on their own. Plus, hes extremely cute
If It Was A Dog: Lets be honest, a dog would be Xenomorph food in no time
1. Simba
The Cat: Scar and Mufasa might also have had a claim to the top spot, but weve opted to go with the rest of the jungle and elect Simba as our, er, lion king. Elton? Hit it
If It Was A Dog: Never will you see an elephant kneel to the will of a dog. Wouldnt happen.
