Celebrity feline and Instagram star Grumpy Cat has died, her heartbroken family has announced.
The furry creature found fame thanks to her unimpressed face, and she became an internet star in countless memes.
The Snowshoe Siamese, who has 2.4m followers, passed away after complications from a recent urinary tract infection aged seven.
Grumpy, who lives in Phoenix, Arizona, and is also known as Tardar Sauce, found fame in 2012 after her owner's brother Bryan posted a photo of her on Reddit. Within 48 hours she had more than 1million views.
Before long she was of the most recognisable cats in the world, and even stared in her own film Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever.
When she was four she was worth £64million, travelling first class and staying at the very best hotels.

She was voiced by Aubrey Plaza, who also starred in Parks and Recreation and Criminal Minds.
The family announced the sad news with a statement on Instagram this morning, with the caption: "Some days are grumpier than others..."
The statement read: "Despite care from top professionals, as well as from her very loving family, Grumpy encountered complications from a recent urinary tract infection that unfortunately became too tough for her to overcome.

"She passed away peacefully on the morning of Tuesday, May 14, at home in the arms of her mommy, Tabatha.
"Besides being out 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.
"Grumpy's Family - Tabatha, Bryan and Chrysta."
Despite her sad face, Bryan insists she was a very happy cat.

Speaking to the Mirror in 2016, he said: "She loves to travel. She’s the star, whereas when she’s at home she has to compete with Tabatha’s other pets.
"She sleeps well in her carry case and is very well taken care of. We only travel once or twice a month, and she has her favourite toys and treats.
"She touches so many people’s lives. Her fans are grandparents aged 104 to babies, even people in full biker leather.”
And while she merely looks miserable, it’s her brother Pokey, also four, who was real grouch.
Bryan says: “Pokey actually has a grumpy personality – he’s not nice.”
