R.I.P. Tadar Sauce, gone too soon.
:'(
I wonder what kind of mascara the secretary bird uses…
Maybe she’s born with it …
** golf clap **
My heart goes out to Tabatha Bundesen on her loss. I’m sure that on other forums people will make it all about the money, but we know it’s all about the love. RIP Tardar Sauce. She was a good kitty and brought us joy.
I’m glad the other links had good news in them. The secretary bird is amazing, despite its poor typing speed. And the baby gorilla is so precious!
I’ll miss Tardar Sauce. Her frown turned mine upside down many a time.
Tardar Sauce will live on forever on the Internet. what a face! what a legacy!
I adored Grumpy Cat. Condolences to her loving family. They’ll miss her even more than Tardar Sauce’s millions of fans.
I never thought about birds having eyelashes before.
This morning I actually heard someone say, “It’s only a cat.” Moron. 😠
RIP, little grumpster. You will be missed. 💕
It’s ‘only’ a cat that touched millions of lives. Wish I could say I the same. That’s special and so was she.
RIP Miss Grumpy! Loved your face, loved how your people shared you with us. Wish i could have met you.
Grumpy Cat was at Book Expo America one year when I was there. I have a postcard that says “I went to BEA once. It was awful.” Unfortunately the line was too long; I would have been waiting at least two hours and we had other stuff we needed/wanted to do. I wish I had gone back past the booth when the time came just to see her but I was on the other end of the Javits Center at that point (probably waiting in some other line).
RIP Tardar Sauce aka Grumpy Cat. 😿 You gave so much joy to so many people. Condolences to your family – they loved you and knew you were loved.
I call for a day of Grumpy(ness) in memory of the Grumpy One .. RIP ya little kitty *Sniff*
