True, it won't have that effect on everyone.  Some are more used to such logos than others.

As it says above, the logo above Kitty is the "V of Doom", the 1976 version of the logo used by Viacom Enterprises (now part of CBS Television Distribution).  As to why it got that nickname (and why it would freak Kitty out), this explanation from the Scare Factor section of the Viacom page at the Closing Logos wiki best explains it: [link]

Scare Factor: It depends on the variant:

• Filmed variant: High to nightmare. Due to the fanfare and the "V" zooming in, this logo had been a source of bad dreams and nightmares for many. The logo's general quality is also poor, especially on deteriorated/damaged film prints, making it even scarier due to the creepy fanfare and the "V" zooming in combined with the film scratches. This logo is known as one of the scariest logos ever created... In fact, this logo is very well-known on the Internet specifically and very popular for this reason.

• Videotaped variant: Medium to nightmare. The videotaped versions generally have smoother animation and quality due to the Scanimate effects, which can lower the scare factor for some. But still, the scare factor can be very high.

• Warp-speed videotaped variant: Nightmare, as the much quicker speed of the zooming and the jarring music makes the videotaped variant much worse.
