I just had the pleasure of meeting Tardar Sauce, the cat better known as the internet sensation, Grumpy Cat! Of course in real life she’s not grumpy at all, in fact she is one of the sweetest cats I’ve ever met. Tard is in New York City making the rounds, being photographed and “interviewed” by media and blogs. Yesterday she was on the TODAY show.

While visiting with Grumpy Cat, I shot a few photos of her. Her expression might suggest otherwise, but she was such a cooperative model. You can keep up with all of Grumpy Cat’s adventures on her website, Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr.

Grumpy Cat recently released a series of holiday cards that are available in the Grumpy Cat Shop.
