Not really. The whole thing was filmed on an island somewhere. A few cats going missing wouldn't be noticed or even traceable. Of course the opposite is also true.
Let me state it a lot more clearly. It's possible no animals were actually killed, but that doesn't change the fact that those animals in the film were clearly being put through cruel situations to get those shots. Allegations don't matter. I'm watching it with my eye balls. Do I give them the benefit of the doubt? Not really. The movie itself clearly shows they don't care about the animals' well being, so I've got no reason to extend them any such courtesy. I'm marking the idea that animals died in the making of this thing under "likely".

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
