# Cat Meme Cartoon Mashups (UPDATED) Eric Proctor's Grumpy Cat Paintings Bring Hilarity to Disney By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2013-10-28 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grumpy-cat-paintings References: [tsaoshin.deviantart](http://tsaoshin.deviantart.com/art/Tale-As-Old-As-No-396789062) Eric Proctor has added to his phenomenal series of Grumpy Cat paintings with even more displeased Internet cats amidst cheery [Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pleasing-3) scenes. New additions to the series of ‘[Grumpy Cat Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marvel-and-disney)’ mashups show the sour-faced cat fist-bumping Stitch, shredding the enchanted rose in ‘Beauty and the Beast,’ looking like the world’s most unenthused fairy in a scene from ‘Pinocchio’ and cutting her long golden locks to prevent herself from being rescued as Rapunzel in 'Tangled.' The series continues with even more hilarious titles like ‘Tale as Old as No,’ and 'When You Wish Upon a No,' showing Grumpy Cat’s distaste for nearly everything around her. The reactions of the other Disney characters are extremely comical in comparison to Grumpy Cat’s dour face and complete lack of interest. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 63% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Internet](https://www.trendhunter.com/internet) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Grumpy Cat Mashups:** The trend of combining Grumpy Cat with popular Disney characters creates opportunities for disruptive innovation in the art and entertainment industries. - **Internet Animal Memes:** The popularity of cat memes and other animal memes on the internet creates opportunities for disruptive innovation in the social media and marketing industries. - **Parody Art:** The trend of creating parody art that combines popular culture references creates opportunities for disruptive innovation in the art and design industries. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Entertainment:** The art and entertainment industry can take advantage of the Grumpy Cat Mashup trend to create new forms of content that appeal to both meme lovers and Disney fans. - **Social Media:** Social media platforms can use internet animal memes to create engaging content and increase user activity on their platforms. - **Marketing:** Marketers can use internet animal memes in their campaigns to connect with a broader audience and increase brand awareness. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cartoon Painting Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cartoon-painting-collections-diamond-art-club-and-paramount-join-forces-for.md) - [Cozy Cartoon-Themed Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pleasing-3.md) - [Playful Cat Illustrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/open-meow.md) - [Soft-Colored Disney Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinderella-capsule.md) - [Collaboration Cartoon Biscuit Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biscuiteers-x-disney-collection.md) - [Playful Coffee Merch Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starbucks-x-mofusand.md) - [Character Clog Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/classic-characters-collection.md) - [Artful Cartoon-Inspired Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doraemon-meets-the-louvre.md) - [Fluffy Plush Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urupocha-chan.md)
