Grumpy Cat Dead - Beloved Internet Famous Cat Dies at 7

Grumpy Cat has sadly died.

The beloved cat, known for her “grumpy” scowl that attracted a huge following on the Internet, died at the age of 7, according to her owners on Friday (May 17).

“Despite care from top professionals, as well as from her very loving family, Grumpy encountered complications from a recent urinary tract infection that unfortunately became too tough for her to overcome. She passed away peacefully on the morning of Tuesday, May 14, at home in the arms of her mommy, Tabatha,” a statement read on her Instagram.

Her memorable facial expression was caused by feline dwarfism and an underbite, according to her owner. Her real name was Tardar Sauce.

Our thoughts are with Grumpy‘s loved ones and her fans at this difficult time.

Here’s a figure to make you a little bit grumpy on this Monday morning – Tabatha Bundsesen, the woman who owns Grumpy Cat, has earned nearly $100 million in the past two years.

“She’s unstoppable,” the 28-year-old former waitress from Morristown, Arizona told Express. “What she’s achieved in such a short time is unimaginable and absolutely mind-blowing.

“I was able to quit my job as a waitress within days of her first appearance on social media and the phone simply hasn’t stopped ringing since,” Tabatha added.

Grumpy Cat, whose real name is Tartar Sauce, has a permanent scowl on her face due to feline dwarfism. “People take one look at her and fall in love, even if they actually think she’s pug ugly,” Tabatha said.

The Grumpy Cat empire has grown into books, merchandise, appearances, and even a holiday movie featuring Aubrey Plaza as the cat’s voice.
