'Already looks like he's plotting your doom,' said call_me_johnno. Reddit users couldn't get enough of micro-Mick, with StarMindedCatGirl asking 'Why is this lil dude so angy.' Mick, now two and a half years old, has retained his permanently grumpy expression. In March, a 10-year-old Persian called Blake went viral for his 'resting grumpy face,' while Smurfy-a 12-year-old rescue Sphynx and former stud cat-had internet users in hysterics with his angry glare. Since Grumpy Cat's reign ended, other sour-faced felines have delighted the internet.

Tardar Sauce also made a movie, Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever, and became the first feline to get its own waxwork at Madame Tussauds.Īt the time of her death in 2019, Tardar Sauce had 2.4 million Instagram followers and 8.5 million Facebook likes. Most of Tardar Sauce's earnings came from books, merchandise, advertising deals and appearances. Eventually, Bundeson left her day job at Red Lobster to manage her pet's soaring success.īy 2014, the Grumpy Cat empire was reported to be worth $99.5 million, although this is something Bundeson denied. It was a photo Bundeson's brother shared to Reddit that launched Tardar Sauce's career as an influencer and professional internet meme. Born in 2012, the cat's unique expression-which was the result of feline dwarfism and a pronounced underbite- spawned countless memes and allegedly made his owner, Tabantha Bundeson, a wealthy woman. Real name Tardar Sauce, the original 'Grumpy Cat' was an internet sensation. Mick's (seen here as a kitten) permanently angry facial expression has won him thousands of followers online, just like original 'Grumpy Cat' Tardar Sauce.
