The Adventures of Milo and Otis is a 1989 live action film starring an orange tabby cat named Milo and a white pug named Otis.
Initially filmed as Koneko Monogatari ("A Kitten's Story" or "The Adventures of Chatran") in Japan, the film was completely revamped, trimmed and americanized with added narration by Dudley Moore.
Director Masanori Hata and associate director Kon Ichikawa edited the film together from 400,000 feet of footage. They used several different cats, from a kitten to a fully grown adult, to give the illusion of the progression of time over several seasons.
The film is controversial in some circles for what is perceived to be animal cruelty in certain scenes.
