Grumpy Cat has been one busy feline as of late and one of her most notable new projects included teaming up with other famous Internet cats like Nala Cat, Hamilton the Hipster Cat, Oskar the Blind Cat and Klaus for the 'Cat Summer' [Purina](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adventures-in-friskies-world) [Friskies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/friskies-playfuls) music video.

The Grumpy Cat music video shows the web-famous felines enjoying a range of warm weather activities, including barbecues, 4th of July festivities and summer sports—except for Grumpy Cat, who runs at the sight of the fun that could be had from a sprinkler on the lawn.

For each view that the Cat Summer music video gets, Purina Friskies will donate a meal to cats in need of food at shelters.
