Lars : Well Maury, these are all kittens. We were hoping for an older cat, one with... experience?
Maury, the Cat Care Society Owner : That's a switch. Most people like the cute little ones. Experience with what?
Ernie : Mouse-hunting.
Maury, the Cat Care Society Owner : Ah, all cats are good mousers.
Ernie : Yes, but you see, we have huge rats, the size of sumo wrestlers, and lots of 'em, so we really need a ferocious feline, preferably one with a history of mental illness. I'm talkin'... one mean pussy.
Lars : Yeah! A vicious cat. Difficult to love; you got any of those, knocking about your cages?
Maury, the Cat Care Society Owner : Funny you should ask. I had given up hope of anyone wanting him. We were about to gas him again.

Ernie : [reading the tag on the side of the cage] "Catzilla"?
Maury, the Cat Care Society Owner : Oh, you know the guys who clean up call him that. But you can call him anything you want. I'd say he looks more like a "Fluffy."
Lars : [leans down] Aw, poor little Catzilla. You want a home, don't you? You want to get out of here. Well, you're gonna have to kill, kill, kill for it!
Ernie : You're a stupid cat, aren't you? Yes, you are! And you're ugly, too...
[the cat lunges, Maury subdues him with a taser]
Lars : [noticing his torn coat sleeve] Oh, you little bastard!
Ernie : We'll take him!
