Meet Garfi, the 17-year-old Persian feline holding the title for "World's Angriest Cat" who is secretly a sweetheart

You know what they say: don't judge a cat by their angry expression (or something like that).

There have been many internet-famous cats over the years that will go down in the history books furrever and ever. The most famous is probably "Grumpy Cat", AKA Tardar Sauce, who became an internet sensation overnight for her purrmanently grumpy face. There are hundreds of cat memes about her, maybe even thousands, and she truly changed the cat meme world with her purrfect presence.

Then, you have Smudge, the cat famous for the "woman yelling at cat" memes, as well as the coughing cat meme. Nyan Cat, the meowgical flying rainbow cat, is one we won't soon furget, and if you're too young to know how Nyan Cat is, then look them up this very instant. We don't like to give out homework, but for some topics, it's crucial for your continuation in life.

And now, we have Garfi, the senior Persian feline who holds the title for the "World's Angriest Cat". But, Garfi has a secret that you would never guess: he's actually a sweetheart. Sure, he's still a cat and lives by his own rules, but he loves his family and his bark is definitely worse than his bite.

Don't judge Garfi by his furrious expression, that's just how he was born. He loves the attention, so make sure you scroll all the way to the end to let him know he did a job well done by taking all of these purrfectly cute pictures!

This is the photo that launched Garfi into the internet's hall of fame. Who would have thought that a cat could look so angry while staring at a roasted turkey? Most would be drooling, or already licking their paws after stealing a measly morsel or four, but not Garfi. Garfi was confused by this roasted bird, but after some time smelling it and realizing how tasty it should be, he warmed up pretty quickly.

While Tardar Sauce (AKA “Grumpy Cat”) and Garfi have similar expressions, Garfi's expression is much more sinister, with a downward inner angle of his eyes looking much more like an angry emoji. Grumpy Cat, on the other hand, has a frown on and more round eyes, making her look purrmanently unimpressed.

Although he was born with this hissterical scowl on his face, his owner, Hulya Ozkok, has said that he is actually a sweetheart and not angry most of the time. She says that he is gentle and docile, except when you don't follow his rules (and he has a lot of them).
