# Cat-Friendly Horror Movies Temptations' Scaredy Cat Tells the Tale of a Frightening Vegetable By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2020-10-15 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scaredy-cat References: [prnewswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/the-first-ever-horror-movie-for-cats-premieres-friday-301153376.html) & [youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WULOpreo36o&feature=youtu.be) Scaredy Cat is the first-ever horror movie for cats and Temptations created it to tell the story of a solo cat in a spooky haunted house. Room by room, the terrifying tale shows the cat being lured by a ball of yarn, ultimately leading to the scariest sight of all—a cucumber. As Craig Neely, Vice President of Marketing at [Mars Petcare](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/temptations), says: If you're a cat lover, there's a good chance you've gone down the rabbit hole of Internet videos of cats jumping in fear at the sight of a cucumber. Those very entertaining clips were the inspiration behind 'Scaredy Cat.'" The movie for cats, which premieres soon on [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whiskas-purrcast) and [Amazon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jazwares-3) Fire TV, is the perfect accompaniment to the limited-edition Creepy Catnip Treats.
