King of Crayons
Is Rhino leaving so Bolt & Mittens can talk actually an example of I Need to Go Iron My Dog? Because Rhino doesn't actually make up an excuse. The first time he goes to get a ladder because it would actually be useful in getting a cat out of a tree, rather than deliberately leaving the other two alone. The second one, he just wanders off, again not deliberately leaving them alone.

Ok, no response in three days, I'm cutting it.

Do we have a trope for the reaction "Lies! Lies! It's all lies!!"? 'Cuz I have that for Mittens's whole "oh I wish I were really a dog" spiel. Ain't no way in hell a cat would prefer to be a dog, and the whole idea that dogs are by nature cuter than cats is backwards as all get-out. It's crazy and lame and a horrible blight on an otherwise awesome and heartwarming film... moreso because it's not a throwaway line but like a major character moment.
Yargh.

No, we don't have tropes for the viewer liking cats more than dogs and disagreeing with the film over it. "Crazy and lame and a horrible blight" are both gross overreactions and purely subjective responses.
I always thought that Mittens was just making that up to make Bolt feel better.

are you forgetting her backstory, chances are that her family had a dog, and they took the dog with them leaving her behind. so it would make scence that she would rather be a loved dog than a abandoned cat...
Do we have a trope for characters who are the kind-of-crazy artistic type? Because there seem to be a lot of them in fiction, and the director would definitely qualify. He's not sociopathic enough to qualify as Mad Artist (unless you want to make the case that he's a "mild example"), even if his ideas do have a devastating effect on Bolt's psyche.
"The Cameo: Cast member Carrot of The Funday Pawpet Show gets a cameo as Bolt's chew toy." - Was this ever confirmed? I looked around and couldn't find any info on it nor confirmation from the directors of the film confirming it.
