Grumpy Cat, whose real name is Tardar Sauce, traveled to London Saturday for the UK debut of her wax twin who is the first animatronic figure the museum has made in more than 100 years! The man-made Grumpy Cat can make five different movements, including curling up in her bed, lifting her head and purring.

The animatronic Grumpy Cat was first unveiled in San Francisco in 2015 and will be on display at Madame Tussauds in London through August. At the debut, Grumpy posed for photos with adoring fans, and even with some of the other wax figures on display, including a wax Kim Kardashian.
