Yes, it’s true, the infamous Grumpy Cat is suing a coffee maker for $1.8 Million over Grumppuccino copyright violations! The internet’s favorite sourpuss could be on the verge of winning a tidy sum from a California coffee maker.
In a lawsuit pending in California courts, Grumpy Cat, or rather, the Cat’s owners, have claimed that Los Angeles-based Grenade Beverage had run afoul of an agreement that let them use the cat’s visage to market a line of coffee drinks.
“Ironically, while the world-famous feline Grumpy Cat and her valuable brand are most often invoked in a tongue-and-cheek fashion, Defendants’ despicable misconduct here has actually given Grumpy Cat and her owners something to be grumpy about,” reads the original lawsuit.
