Just two weeks prior, Bored Panda wrote about Pixar’s newest short animation ‘Purl’. Well, the famous animation studio is treating us again with another short film – this time, it’s guaranteed to leave you weeping as it’s a story about one unlikely friendship between an abused pit bull and a stray kitten. Kittbull – a production of Pixar’s new SparkShorts program – was directed by Rosana Sullivan and produced by Kathryn Hendrickson and tells a heartwarming story of a rare kinship formed under the saddest circumstances. Get your tissues ready and scroll down below to watch the full animation.

“To be fully honest, it started from a cat video,” – Rosie laughs. “I love watching cat videos in times of stress. And I thought, you know what, I just want to draw a little kitten doing something silly and very very cat-like. At first, I just wanted to draw something that made me feel good and was fun, but it evolved into something more personal to me, eventually, I realized that growing up I was always very sensitive and very shy. And had actually a lot trouble making connections, making friendships. So I related to this kitten because it never really stepped out of its comfort zone to be vulnerable and make a connection. So that’s eventually what the story became,” the director of the short animation recalls.

The story starts off with a stray, big-eyed kitten wandering around a neighborhood to find a refuge in a cardboard box, in a back alley. He meets a pit bull there,
which suffers from abuse from the hands of his stony-hearted owner. In many ways, it seems as if the animation short is trying to showcase the stereotypes that the pit bulls are facing and is trying to break them, showing that these dogs have good hearts, unlike many of their owners.

In the beginning of the animation, the stray black kitten shies away from the dog and shows fear. However, the animation later shows off the bigheartedness of the dog, who saves the cat which was stuck.

The short itself is beautifully drawn, and some of the people who commented below the video, even thought that it reminds them of the Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away. The producer of the animation, Kathryn Hendrickson, noted herself that the animation was drawn in 2D which is “different from what Pixar normally does.”

I actually cried. I don’t do that often. Right now I just want to hug and kiss a pitbull. It’s no pitbull around so I kiss my spoiled shiba Inu insted. The movie was so god! It was so beatifully made.

I've been around many dogs and was alpha to a dog I loved. I've never had a problem with them because I don't try to treat them as people in fur coats. We got an abused pit bull to rehabilitate and she is ALL that anyone could ever ask for or want from a dog. Confirms my suspicion that we get as much garbage about dogs as we get about politics.

One can see how much Studio Ghibli has inspired the head of Pixar studios. The silouette of these two cuties is *so* similar to the Fly and the Mouse at the end of Spirited Away. Looking adorable both pairs! Peace from West to East! Yeah Yeah!

It also shows that stray cats just need a friend in order to open up and stop being scared of everyone. I’ve seen so many strays who were aggressive become little love muffins when someone took the time to show them some kindness. I turned a few stray cats into adoptable pets and it’s so heartwarming to see them go from untrusting and scared to opening up and feeling comfortable enough to love.

That’s how my rescue was. Got her 14 years ago (she was about a year old), but had to euthanize her last month bc her kidneys were failing and the vet couldn’t do anything for her... she gave us the BEST 14 years. She’s missed tremendously. *RIP my sweet little girl* ♥️😔🐈

If you can show the Pitbull is not aggressive they can give you a certificate of exemption, my friend has one and she has it legally because it was shown to be a lovely dog with no aggression, and it is so lovely, a real soppy boy.

I. am. so. happy that they made a heartwarming story about a pit bull and made it realistic about how humans create the aggressiveness in an otherwise pure-souled dog ! As a 30+ year rescuer of abused and neglected pit bull and pit bull mixes, I have spent countless hours and much heartbreak advocating for these wonderful dogs. Even the ones that had been abused by humans were quick to forgive, trust, and live with other dogs and cats that I had in complete harmony. This brings me new hope.

We have a lab/pit mix, and I can see so much of her behavior in this. There's a reason they were once called nursemaid dogs--I can't imagine her hurting anyone. The only person she's injured is me--we live in the country and don't have a fenced-in yard, so I take her out on a lease. She saw a rabbit in the back yard and nearly tore my arm off--the rabbit bolted north, and the "big vicious pit bull" bolted the other direction to get away from that mean old rabbit!

Hence the kitty home box at the start says "fragile". It's a very carefully placed detail.

They didn't beat the dog, they were FIGHTING THE DOG. Did no one pick up on that? The dog was being trained to fight and when he lost, the owner tossed him into the backyard. I live in Houston, Texas and dog fighting is a BIG problem in the south :(

As a pitbull rescuer, this just warms my heart. These dogs love cats, and are the most loving, loyal and appreciative breeds. I have owned many different breeds, before rescuing Pitbulls. It is this breed of dog that has fully captured my heart I am so grateful Pixar has shown this side of them. They don't deserve the bad media/press they have received, it is biased and full of ignorance. Thank you Pixar, for educating people through this sweet short film, and showing the real loving side of this breed.

I love all kinds of dogs, especially the big working group ones (pitties, boxers, dobermans, etc). And that scruffy kitten is pretty cute too.
