Born on April 4, 2012, Grumpy Cat was one of a litter of four kittens and had a form of dwarfism that made its face appear permanently grumpy. While the kitty was otherwise just a normal house cat, it only took one picture to change her life forever.

The kitty became an icon, with “Grumpy Cat” memes rocking the Internet as people created different iterations with ever-changing phrases and themes.
