Cat Out of the Bag Alert! This review contains some spoilers for this film!
Synopsis: Andi (Emma Roberts) and Bruce (Jake T. Austin) are a couple of troubled foster kids who secretly rescue stray dogs and keep them in an abandoned New York City hotel.
Kitty Cameos: In one scene the kids are trying to hide their dog Friday from their foster parents. They put him out on the fire escape where he uses a basket contraption which Bruce has invented as an elevator to lower himself to the ground. As Friday passes a fire escape an orange tabby cat watches him.
The end credits of the film include footage of the various crew members with their pets, a majority of which are dogs. But one crew member is seen with his tuxedo cat, who doesn’t cooperate with the shoot all the time.
Final Mewsings: Will we ever get a Hotel for Cats sequel?
