* NightmareFuel: TheReveal that the pit bull is used for dog fighting: after it's most recent fight, it's owners just push it's limp, abused, half-dead body out of the alley door and onto the steps like discarded meat. It's extremely disturbing.

Some Anvils Need To Be Dropped got cut, going to see if this fits better under An Aesop.


* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: Pit bulls aren't bad dogs. Just because bad people use them for dog fighting, that doesn't make the entire breed bad. The short drops this anvil with no words at all, but makes it very clear that the pit bull is a sweet, friendly, gentle lug of a dog who just wants to be friends with the kitten, even after he's treated like crap by his previous owner. Pit bulls as a breed have garnered a bad reputation because of people constantly using them for fighting, and even now, the stigma still persists. At one point, Tia Torres of ''Series/PitbullsAndParolees'' fame, who runs a pit bull rescue center, promoted the short on Facebook and praised its portrayal of pit bulls, furthering the message.

* JustHereForGodzilla: If general audiences weren't gushing over it's cuteness, animation fans were geeking out over the fact that Pixar, the premiere computer animation studio, had released a traditionally animated short.

** The ending. Both the kitten and the pit bull get adopted by a nice lady and have a bright future ahead of them. ''Awwwwwww!''''Awwwwwww!'' Even better, the nice lady initially just wanted to adopt the kitten, and was wary of the pit bull at first... but then the kitten nuzzles up to him and sits at his feet, looking at her as if to say, "We're a package deal -- you want me, you take him." Hesitantly, she reaches out her hand to the poor, abused dog, and gives him a much-deserved pet. We then cut ahead to see him with a bandanna around his neck, as he and the kitten run towards their new owner for a picnic. ''Double awwwwww!''

Added DiffLines:

* {{Moe}}: It's about a cute widdle kitten making friends with a GentleGiant pit bull. When the short isn't making you cry, it's making you squee.
* MoralEventHorizon: The pitbull's owner was already clearly not a great guy, leaving the poor thing shackled up outside and never playing with him. But then he forces him into dog fighting, and after he's badly injured, kicks him outside. In the ''rain''.


Added DiffLines:

* ShockingMoments: Many viewers were stunned into silence the first time they saw the pitbull with visible injuries, limping to cower in the doghouse. Not only is it a huge emotional GutPunch, it's also shocking for many that Pixar actually went there, ''showing'' the abuse (or at least its results) instead of just implying the worst of it.
