| ~ Ozone |
Ozone is a minor antagonist in Illumination's 6th animated feature film, The Secret Life of Pets.
He was Snowball's former right-hand cat and his former lieutenant in his team, the Flushed Pets. He was also the one who was responsible for Max and Duke meeting him.
He was voiced by Steve Coogan, who also played David Ershon in The Other Guys, Heston in Ella Enchanted, Hades in Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, and Blitzen in the Robbie the Reindeer films.
Biography[]
Ozone first appears in an alleyway after Duke throws Max into a garbage bin as revenge of his treatment on him while waiting for an ambush for Max and Duke as Snowball's plan to lure him to the Animal Control Officers, so that he can free them. Ozone appears from the bin, and he begins to antagonize the dogs as he steals Duke's collar. At first, Duke isn't intimidated. But when Ozone's army shows up, Duke cowardly runs away, leaving Max at the mercy of the cats who torment him and steal his collar. When the Animal Control Officers show up, Ozone and his group hide and retreat.
Ozone later appears when Tiberius the hawk takes him to Gidget. He coughs up Max's collar, but he sleazily refuses to disclose anymore information, even when Tiberius threatens to throw him off the building that he's on. He also talks about how cats always land on their feet. It's not until Gidget slaps him repeatedly that he tells her that Max was taken by Snowball, and that he was in the sewers.
He appears at the ending where he is in attendance at Max and Gidget's wedding, dancing with a worker from the sausage factory in the song, Make the Party Don't Stop, by BunnyBeatz.

Trivia[]
- Although never stated, it's implied that he is associated with Snowball and even part of his gang since he knew Max and Duke were taken to the sewers without having the audience know how. This could possibly mean that the Alley Cats are like a minor wing (or branch of sort) to the Flushed Pets.
- Despite being a member of the Flushed Pets, Ozone doesn't actually interact with Snowball.
- Ozone's name isn't said throughout the film.
- Steve Coogan, who voices Ozone in The Secret Life of Pets, is also the voice of Reginald the cat from the same film. As a bonus, Coogan is known for voicing Silas Ramsbottom from the Despicable Me sequels and Minions: The Rise of Gru, Professor Flux and the Blind Tower Guard from the first Minions film, and Fritz from Despicable Me 3. Ironically, Gidget's voice actress, Jenny Slate, was the voice of Valerie Da Vinci in the latter film. In fact, Ozone and Reginald are Coogan's only Illumination characters that aren't part of the Despicable Me/Minions franchise.
