Some parts are not appropriate for kids. Like when the cat seen a picture of their mom, gets excited and he gets a "tail boner", really would u want ur kids watching that? And u can't say kids don't understand what's happening. Ok, maybe lil kids might not but maybe 5+ will. 1. kids are smarter than when we were little. 2. Should it really matter? It has no business being in a child's movie.

So when I watched this a few weeks ago. I saw this was too mature for the kids who are reading the book. Because there was many animals treated poorly. And this kid. Swings a bat at the cat and hits his crotch. Next There was these scenes where the cat uses the word bloody and when he finds out he cut his tail he yelled SON OF A (bleep) and he makes a mess and the things spread it around. But the cat does clean up the house in the end. And Conrad breaks the rules in the house. Next there was almost swearing and the cat picks up a garden tool refers to it as a Dirty hoe then when he gets his car he spells out the s-word. Then what was sexist was that the cat humps the kids babysitter and he looks at a picture his tail sticks straight and his hat goes up when the kids say that's our mom. Also this random character drinks beer. But some of these scenes did make me laugh. So Don't let little kids see this movie. Very bad director.
