Hairy Maclary's main antagonist, the abusive bully of a tomcat Scarface claw, was a mean hateful villain who terrified me as a child & my honest reaction is the exact same reaction as Henry Rhodes from the original Day of the Dead from 1985. He still terrifies me to this very day.
I honestly mean no mistreatment towards the original creator, however I do blame the animated series & the books for making me not want any cats ever in my entire life.
Please understand my honest & extremely controversial opinion.
Benjamin,
Thanks for your honest traumafession! Of course, even though I've never heard of this Scarface fellow, I'm such a cat fanatic that I'm already enamored with him ! Looks like I'm not alone – there's a whole exhibition dedicated to this fascinating feline bully!
