The internet star joined the show ‘Cats’ on Friday

Life will imitate art — or is it the other way around? — when internet sensation Grumpy Cat joins the cast of the Broadway musical Cats on Friday for what will likely be a feline-good moment.
The kitty with the comical frown and feline dwarfism “will be worked into the end of the show and will become an honorary Jellicle Cat,” according to a spokesman for the show.
Grumpy Cat has become an online phenomenon with 8.7 million Facebook followers and a career selling books, T-shirts, mugs and cat food. She’s been in commercials for cereal and fast-food restaurants.
