Directed by: Lawrence Guterman
Starring: Alec Baldwin, Jeff Goldblum, Tobey Maguire, Elizabeth Perkins, Miriam Margolyes, Alexander Pollock
Factual error: The "Russian Blue" isn't a Russian Blue at all. Russian Blues have pointed faces and green eyes. The flat faced, orange eyed kitten is a British Shorthair AKA British Blue. (00:39:35)
Factual error: When the Russian Blue is in Luke's house, there is a shot where Butch is tangled up in the telephone wire but it should actually be mirrored since it was the reflection in the cat's eyes.
Continuity mistake: As Buddy walks out into the street at the start of the movie when the cat is playing dead, you can see several parked cars on the street behind him. When the van backs up to 'catnap' buddy, there are no parked cars. Then as the van drives off again, there is a different bunch of parked cars in the street. (00:03:54)
Lou: I've never met a stray.
Ivy: Actually, I prefer "domestically challenged."
Question: In one scene where Lou is talking to Ivy about Butch she says that someone really hurt him once. What did she mean by that? Did Butch have an owner who was mean to him or abandoned him?

Answer: Butch was abandoned. It's never stated but it's implied.

"Okay, well, here's lesson number two: we help them. We work for them. We tolerate that stupid boochy-boochy baby talk. And for WHAT? So that when they go off to college, they can dump you off with some old lady who can't throw a ball without so much as breaking her HIP!" Pretty sure this counts as being abandoned.
As I said, it's never stated outright but it is implied.
