Grumpy Cat to Be First Cat in Wax at Madame Tussauds

It’s no secret that the Internet meme star and perpetually frowning Tardar Sauce (better known as “Grumpy Cat”) tends to look rather…unimpressed…about most things in life. 

But we feel that after hearing about the latest project cooking up at Madame Tussauds, she might actually crack a grin for a change. Recently it was announced that the popular wax museum would be designing a new figurine after the celebrity cat. Grumpy Cat now joins a star-studded collection of lifelike statues housed in major cities across the nation and world. 

Well Grumpy Cat, we should mention that you’ll be joining the likes of icons like Gandhi, Beyonce and even the Commander-in-Chief himself, President Obama.

In a statement, Grumpy Cat said of the news, “This is truly an honor… I hate it.” 

 

 

She quietly “tolerated” expert artists as they gently examined her to get the correct measurements. The finished product will be animatronic with five different movements, and will go down in history as the first Tussauds wax piece of the feline persuasion. That kind of exposure is just the kind of thing Grumpy Cat is excited about, right?

If you want to check out the new exhibit, it will be premiering in San Francisco this fall but will be touring through the country after. We cannot WAIT to see what the final figure looks like! If it’s anything as adorable as Tardar Sauce…

…maybe they should put a warning sign on it!
