Tardar Sauce, aka “Tard” or “the Grumpy Cat” is the 9-month old feline companion of Arizona-based Tabatha Bundesen, whose brother posted the Snowshoe Siamese kitten’s image on reddit and it quickly went viral. Though Tard is not actually grumpy, she has spawned a whole bunch of macro images that play on her sour mug.

Tard now has her own website:

Grumpy Cats name is “Tard” which is short for Tardar Sauce.

Tardar has what looks kind of like an under bite. She looked unique, as did her brother, at birth, with a flat face, bubble eyes, and a short tail. Though genetics may not be the only reason for Tardar’s permanent frown. Tardar is not as coordinated as a normal cat, so she is likely a little angry about that. She likes to be held and petted sometimes, but being the pet of a 10 year old could make anyone grumpy.
