A Grumpy Star Is Born
Born Tardar Sauce — named for the color of her coat — on April 4, 2012, Grumpy Cat hit it big in September of that year after Bryan Bundesen, brother of her owner, Tabatha, posted a photo of the pouty-faced feline to Reddit. A video was later posted to YouTube to prove Grumpy Cat's trademark scowl was not achieved with Photoshop. The video has over 10 million views. Grumpy Cat's permanently grumpy face is due to a condition called feline dwarfism.
