Hm. Nala wasn't 'bashing' or 'nasty' with Pumba. She basically was worried about Simba, but they weren't even listening. Granted she WAS going to eat Pumba when they met.. but she wasn't untrustworthy.

Dude just relax. Nala wasn't harsh, as some told you before, she was in the rush to catch up Simba. I'm pretty sure that you would've have the same reaction if you were at her place, because I would have.

You guys are all acting like Pumbaa deserved it, and defending Nala. Why is everyone against my opinion? Am I wrong? Did Pumbaa deserve it? Am I making him out to be nicer than he actually was?

No, you aren't making him out to be nicer than he is. No one is saying he deserved anything. We're all disagreeing with you because Nala didn't do anything mean. We've all been saying that precisely, how do you not understand? No one is defending Nala or saying Pumbaa deserved to be treated harshly. We're just giving you the answer to your question. This is not really an opinion issue, because there is no way she did anything mean and there's no way Timon or Pumbaa took her actions as cruel. If you were in danger, would you want your best friend to risk your life in order to not rush some of your other friends he/she was only just acquainted with? Because that's not what people do. Honestly I've been trying to be patient with you, but you seem to be trying very hard to make everyone angry, again.

Why are we even still talking to him...

Nala just wanted them to help but couldn't leave her mate in danger as she knew what he was up against and needed help fast. She rushed to her love as anyone of us would if they were in danger.

nala was too harsh ...

Like everyone else, I believe Nala's earnest tone was justified. Not only was the situation desperate, but Nala had to repeatedly inform Timon and Pumbaa about Simba's past under urgent circumstances.

yes

Nala was just trying to get to Simba.
