The Vicious Cat Awards are presented annually at the Grossmann Fantastic Film and Wine Festival in Ljutomer. The Vicious Cat [Hudi maček] Award is bestowed for best feature film, while the Vicious Old Cat Award [Stari hudi maček] honours someone's lifetime achievements (since 2007 the award winners have been Slobodan Šijan, Robert Corman, and Ruggero Deodato).

In 2008 the Slak's Vicious Cat [Slakov hudi maček] Award for the best short film was introduced and named after the Slovene film director Franci Slak (1953–2007) who had been actively involved at the festival since its inception. The Noisy Cat [Hrupni maček] Award is bestowed for the best music documentary. The Necro Cat [Nekro maček] Award is meant for outstanding achievements in the fantastic or horror genre.
