* AudienceAlienatingPremise: Felidae is a film noir with blood, murder, sex, and a cult. Starring cats. Its look made many people think it was a Disney-type movie, but the actual content is not kid-friendly, scaring away both kid and adult audiences. The film has since gained a cult status online, however.

** The cult that holds ''suicide pacts''. [[DeadpanSnarker Francis]] even {{lampshades}} this- "What I was watching wasn't exactly a scene out of TheAristocats."

* FridgeLogic: Comes up between books 1 and 2. The one that hits the hardest is the Company of the Merciful vs. Jesaja. Both the Company and Jesaja live underground. The Company have gone blind from living in the darkness, but Jesaja has not. While Jesaja seems healthy enough with no sun, the Company have to sunbathe briefly every day to avoid getting rickets. It must be noted that it's never specified just how long Jesaja stayed underground, but the whole situation feels rather fishy.

*** For those who don't want to watch the video, here's a summery- this nightmare sequence takes place in an apocalyptic like setting, with piles of cat corpses littering the scene. Suddenly, Gregor Mendel pops out of one pile and begins to give hints to Francis as to who the murderer might be. Then he proceeds to use crosses as marionette strings on the corpses and control the decomposing kitties. [[SarcasmMode Ain't that just lovely?]]

* {{Narm}}: In the English dub, most of the characters sound cartoony (yes, it's an animated movie, but... it's a murder mystery with cats! And sex!)

* HoYay: More evident in the books, but the friendship between Francis and Pascal might come off as this to some.
** Kong and Francis can give off this vibe, at least in the English movie dub. Kong even calls Francis "cutie pie."
*** He also disparages Francis and implies he's Bluebeard's gay lover.

** Francis, to a degree. Moreso in the books, wherein the things he sees and goes through have a much more obvious effect on him - more than once he breaks down crying. (Can you really blame him?)

* {{Narm}}: Francis's "I'll get you for this!" speech is supposed to sound angry. Too bad his voice actor just can't quite pull it off.
** [[spoiler:Kong mourning Solitaire.]] Another scene ruined by bad voice acting.
*** Sadly, yes. Both scenes are far, far better in German.
*** "You spoke to a ''man?!''"
** Also, for anyone well-versed in the Internet, watching the scene where Francis spies on the cult for the first time without thinking of [[LolCats Ceiling Cat]] is... difficult.
