Meet the Parents

Movie • 2000 • Comedy  

Report
Greg Focker is ready to marry his girlfriend, Pam, but before he pops the question, he must win over her formidable father, humorless former CIA agent Jack Byrnes, at the wedding of Pam's sister. As Greg bends over backward to make a good impression, his visit to the Byrnes home turns into a hilarious series of disasters, and everything that can go wrong does, all under Jack's critical, hawklike gaze.

a man lunges for a cat but he is tackled before the cat is injured. A cat also has its tail spray-painted but it seems to have no harm on the cat.
