Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore

2010

The ongoing war between the canine and feline species is put on hold when they join forces to thwart a rogue cat spy with her own sinister plans for conquest.

Ages 8+Source checked

Why this age? Frequent cartoon spy peril, explosions, battles, threats to control dogs, attempted killing, imprisonment, and a disturbing backstory may unsettle younger children, but the comic fantasy tone limits intensity. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
