It's no exaggeration to say that cats are the cutest and most adorable creatures on the planet. From time immemorial, people began to get these charming animals, communication with which always brings joy. Let's look at the 5 most famous cats. They became famous all over the world.

Policeman Rusik

Thanks to this cat, many people have learned that these animals can also be police officers along with dogs. Rusik proved this by his own example. He was a full-fledged member of the domestic police - he worked on the Caspian Sea, helped to eradicate smuggling there. This is a really important task, because the sturgeon that lives in those places is on the verge of extinction.

Rusik actively fought against poaching. He used to be homeless until he was taken in by the police. He ate only fish taken from poachers. As a result, he became so accustomed to her smell that he learned to detect contraband in vehicles at checkpoints. It is very unfortunate, but Rusik died during the performance of his duties. It happened in 2013. This cat is the most famous crime fighter. His memory will live on for a long time.

Chessy is the face of a famous company

The kitten named Chessie was a representative of Chesapeake & Ohio Railways. Its history began with the fall issue of Fortune in 1933, which featured a railroad advertisement with a slumbering animal and the slogan "Sleeps Like a Kitten." The ad didn't say his name. The painting was bought from an Austrian painter for $5. Every day the kitten painted on it became more and more famous. His image could be seen in absolutely any place, for example, on train cars, calendars, posters. Perhaps it was the most famous cat in the world at that time. His image has always been before the eyes of millions of people. Soon, the railway company acquired another lucky one - Peak the kitten. A funny word was formed from the names of two animals - Chesapeake.

Museum Guard Mike

From 1909 until 1929, the main entrance of the British Museum was completely protected from stray dogs and any other animals. He was guarded by a cat named Mike. He had a very difficult character and was dissatisfied with almost everything. Like dogs, he could not stand other cats and constantly chased them. They got it from him… This cat is the most famous guard, you can’t argue with that.

Mike didn't have warm feelings for people either. But there was oneexception: the cat was fine with Ernest Wallis Budge, his owner and museum gatekeeper. Only he allowed himself to be fed and caressed. However, despite his difficult nature, Mike has gained immense popularity. He was looked after even at a time when the museum was closed for an extended period, for example, during the First World War. The cat died in 1929. Many visitors to the museum stop by his small headstone located at the entrance.

Grumpy cat (Tardar Sauce)

If you are interested in the most famous cats of the Internet, then you definitely know the cutie Tardar Sauce. However, she became famous as Grumpy Cat. Few know her real name. In fact, this kitty is by no means gloomy - she is joyful, funny and still quite small (was born on April 4, 2012). Such an unusual appearance is explained by the fact that Tardar has a malocclusion, as well as dwarfism. But no serious illnesses were found in her. However, many people think that this cat is the most famous sufferer, that he is offended by fate. Actually, it is not. Tardar's life can be called calm and measured, like most domestic cats, but in a short time she managed to build a successful career on the net: every week she is filmed, and then the photos are posted on the Internet. Grumpy Cat is a millionaire, she really has a huge fortune. It is possible that filming will begin soon, in which Tardar will get a role.

The work was created at the dawn of the Enlightenment, and the main character, who so talentedly and successfully finds ways out of various difficult situations, can be called a symbol of the approaching period of the triumph of reason, talent and personal initiative, regardless of belonging to a particular social group. The cat, still without boots, is inherited by a gloomy, pessimistic owner who does not even suspect what a gift of fate fell into his hands. After a while, the main character puts on boots. From this moment on, he begins his active work to transform his owner from a beggarly ragamuffin into a royal relative of the Marquis de Carabas.
