In the latest movie supercut from Slackstory, we see a string of scenes in which tension builds until something jumps out at you, screaming like a banshee! It's just a cat. Never mind that cats sometimes harbor murder in their hearts and can mess you up more than a ghost or gremlin ever will.
The cat trope is a way to add more tension and more scares to a story without having to reveal the actual evil entity too soon. Read more about it at TV Tropes, if you don't mind diving down the TV Tropes wormhole. -via Laughing Squid

Is there a cat equivalent to the Wilhelm Scream? I mean, cats don't generally make that noise in their own homes.

Are those cats spring-loaded or something?

Maybe I wasn't looking closely, but did they omit the cat scene in "Alien?"
