Chonky black cat goes viral with hissterically unphotogenic pictures, instantly becomes the new shareable reaction meme taking the internet by storm

Well meowdy there, feline fam. If you're new here, welcome! We're in the business of all things cat-related, and that includes memes. We're something of an expurrt in this topic, having been around when the very first cat meme took over the internet and changed the lives of hoomans furrever. Many hissterical feline funnies have been created since then, but it's not every day you get to witness the birth of a viral cat meme. A true cat meme, not some imitation copy of something that's been done before.

The OG pioneers of cat memes were such stars as Grumpy Cat, Smudge, and of course, "heavy breathing cat", but this new diamond in the rough comes from the depths of Reddit - a chonky black cat that went viral for playing with a piece of long grass. Her hissterically unphotogenic photos took the internet by storm, and now everyone is sharing memes of this hilarious kitty. Scroll down to see some of the best we found below - you can thank us later.
