In the directors commentary they talk about the cats at jennys house and how it was to work with them and they are the most major animals in the movie. It definitely doesn't seem like it

There's a scene where a snake is swimming towards a woman swimming in a lake. A man jumps into the lake and grabs it and later when he looks at it again it's a branch.

When he’s walking through the creepy forest/ swamp after the fork in the road, he gets covered in spiders briefly. There are no other spiders other than that.

Several cats are seen throughout the film, but very briefly as they run on and off camera. The only animal deaths are mentions of a dog's bones being used by a witch for a spell, and a wolf eating a rabbit. Neither are shown on screen.

Kinda; A man talks to a little girl about age differences, and how when they get older "it isn't such a big difference". Later in the film, when she is an adult, they almost kiss.

One scene where a young man is in the hospital, but he's laughing and chatting with a girl. But near the end there's another scene where the dad is lying in bed in the hospital with tubes and stuff, dying.

It's brief and shown in a humorous manner, as the baby shoots out of the mother and slides across the floor.
