Not technically a pet, but a dove is killed by being crushed in a cage. The first time, the body of the dove is shown. The second time, the main character is led to believe he’ll kill the bird but the bird lives.

Sort of. Movie revolves around magicians, and the plot is like a magic trick, there’s misdirections and the viewer doesn’t always know what’s real.

There's a "buried alive" scene in a coffin. Also, those big water tanks for "escaping tricks" are used in several scenes, and there are deaths involved... There's a mention of the magical assistant girl having to fold her body and get into a crammed space to do a trick, but not shown.
