After the death of the late Tardar Sauce, a six-year-old Persian cat, from Austin, Texas has become the country’s new ‘Grumpy Cat’.
Louis always looks angry even when he is playing with his four-year-old furry friend, Monae or snuggling with his owner Michelle Axis.
His owner Michelle – a Medical scribe, said: “Louis is a full breed Persian. People often ask if he has a genetic disorder because they think his facial features are an exception, but he is completely normal.”
“People usually react saying he looks like a human old man! They love his big ‘marble eyes’ that he squints often.”
Michelle said that Louis and Monae share a love-hate relationship and Monae bullied him when she was a baby even though Louis was a full grown cat.
She said: “When we got Monae she was a baby and Louis was a full grown cat, and yet she bullied him for two months straight.”
“She even tackles and picks at him, but really she loves him. Louis is now referred to as the ‘new Grumpy Cat’, but he is actually very sweet, happy and playful.”
“He loves to snuggle and give head rubs, he will chase lasers and play with toys.”
Tardar Sauce – the country’s original Grumpy Cat – passed away earlier this month at the age of seven.
Her owners said in a statement: “We are unimaginably heartbroken to announce the loss of our beloved Grumpy Cat. Despite care from top professionals, as well as from her very loving family, Grumpy encountered complications from a recent urinary tract infection.”
“Besides being our baby and a cherished member of the family, Grumpy Cat has helped millions of people smile all around the world – even when times were tough. Her spirit will continue to live on through her fans everywhere.”
Now, Louis has taken Tardar Sauce’s place and is the new Grumpy Cat.
