Animal cruelty
There is a flashback to children mistreating class pets. This includes a scene of a lizard’s tail being cut off and a pet being thrown into a swimming pool.
Cruelty
Some girls talk about who should be on their friend’s list. Some children are excluded from a birthday party.
Violence
The film has cartoony violence. Animal characters destroy a birthday party. A character is seen throwing ninja stars. Glowing-eyed alligators appear menacingly and threaten characters.
Content that may disturb
A character is nearly sucked into a vacuum. They lose part of their tail; we see flesh and bone. This may be shocking for some viewers.
