配图文字称:“正版不爽猫还是一如既往地对任何东西都无动于衷,对自己的雕像也是如此。#不爽猫蜡像#”。

新闻稿还打趣道:“不爽猫此刻的内心是崩溃的,‘简直不敢相信眼前发生的这一切,太可怕了’。”

The cat's website says 'Grumpy Cat became an internet sensation after her photo was posted on Reddit on September 22, 2012.
不爽猫的官网显示:“2012年9月22日,不爽猫的照片出现在Reddit上,然后一夜之间成了网络红人。”

'She is a super cute and cuddly kitty and loves to be held and rubbed!'

It also says: 'Her petite size and famous face is likely due to feline dwarfism and her rear end wobbles a bit when she walks due to this; otherwise she is a perfect little kitty!'
网站还补充道:“她娇小的体型和看似不爽的表情,很可能是因为她患有猫咪侏儒症。也正因为这个原因,她走路时,尾部会不稳;除此之外,她就是一只完美猫咪!”

The press release said: 'Grumpy Cat’s animatronic will have several movements.
新闻稿还称:“电子版不爽猫还是会动的呢,会好几个动作。”
