* TerribleIntervieweesMontage: The whole premise of the short. Two casting directors hold auditions for the role of a cat in an unspecified show or movie. The cats (which speak in meows which are subtitled in English, and which the directors can somehow understand) each have various flaws. For example, Larry is [[NervousWreck incredibly high-strung]], Osiris [[ItsAllAboutMe has an overinflated ego]], etc. One of the auditioners is a ''caiman'' who insists he can do a good cat impression. In the end, [[spoiler:the caiman ends up getting the part]].

* AnachronicOrder: Rather than showing each audition all the way through, the short jumps around in time, showing brief snippets of each animal's audition regardless of which order the auditions are in.

* NervousWreck: Larry. He is so nervous when he starts his audition that he accidentally makes a {{spoonerism}}, and covers his face with his paws in embarrassment. He also mentions that he used to go to theatre school, but had terrible stage fright.

* NoAntagonist: The story is about two casting directors holding auditions. Neither the casting directors nor the animals are evil. The closest one to an antagonist is Osiris, but she's an egotistical jerk at worst, not a villain.

They all "speak" in animal sounds, but we fortunately have subtitles to understand what they're saying.
You can watch it [[https://youtu.be/AgL-bb8D7mI here]].

!!This short contains examples of:
* CuteKitten: All the cats are adorable in their designs and mannerisms, although the black kitten and Osiris' servant are the only ones who are clearly kittens.
* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: Averted. The caiman is totally friendly, and just wants to be accepted,
* OverlyLongName: The ragdoll cat's full name is "Osiris Dior Sauvage von Katzenwald... Descendant of Venezia Jupi-" and the scene cuts off before we can hear the rest.
* PunBasedTitle: The title is a cat-themed pun on "casting call."
* SeldomSeenSpecies: One of the main characters is a caiman, which aren't too common compared to their relatives, crocodiles and alligators.
