We have a great love for cat memes, here at I Can Has Cheezburger. We love them, but there are some tried-and-true hilarious cat memes that have survived the test of time, and are now going down in internet history. One of the most well-known is definitely Grumpy Cat, who unfortunately passed away a few years ago. And then, we have Smudge, also known as the "Woman Yelling At Cat" meme.

People love this meme so much that it has stayed around as a meme template for many years, and now someone has taken it upon themselves to pay tribute to this amazing cat meme by creating it in many different eras. From ancient Egyptians to feudal Japan, you'll find examples of women crying because of a cat in all shapes (literally) and styles. Scroll down to see these beautiful and hilarious renditions for yourself!

It's well-known that cats were revered by Egyptians, so it makes sense that they would make murals to them like this! For sure there was an instance where a woman was upset by some royal cat and her friend had to hold her back. Of course, the cat won.

Even Picasso could see that his painting was unfinished, until some hilarious painter finished with this cubist painting of Smudge, and now we feel that his masterpiece is finally complete! Smudge, making women cry in all shapes and forms.
