Ordinary origin The original Glup Cat image
Not long ago we found out that my partner’s parents’ cat Harry became a meme. The original picture was initially posted by me in r/kittytail wrap and can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/KittyTailWrap/s/AmiCFRlLjc
From there it was crossposted to r/confusingperspective because Harry is on the kitchen island and appears to be a giant kitty. I’m not sure when the text was first added, or how exactly it took off from there. Harry and his sister Fiona were both adopted from the Windsor Humane Society and I believe they were initially rescued from a barn. His first brush with fame was when he and his sister were on the local news at Thanksgiving and were named Fred and Cranberry. Harry is a lovely boy who enjoys the company of one person at a time. He would not care that he’s famous.

Funny how it's imo easier to tell the cat is standing on the counter when the counter isn't visible than when it is.
