Other mistake: Whenever a cat puts a hat on, there are no cuts for the ears to pop through. Instead, the ears simply swap from being on the cat to being on the hat between frames. Sometimes, when the cat's head is a bit too high, the ears on the hat are sometimes slightly misplaced.

Question: Much is said about the infamous first released version with Judy Dench's real hand instead of a CGI paw, but I'm watching that same version now and ALL of the cats have real human hands. How is this not also a mistake? Or is it that the mistake is Dench's ring on her finger? Do the actors' human hands change to paws in the CGI-fixed second version?
Answer: The issue wasn't about her hand looking human but, as you mentioned, that she was wearing her own ring, which was digitally removed in the revised version.
