Cat with tears of joy Emoji
Smileys
A cartoon cat face featuring wide eyes, a broad smile, and two prominent blue tears streaming down its cheeks. It captures the distinct expression of laughter so intense that it becomes physically overwhelming.
Usage Context
Used to express deep amusement or to indicate that a joke was funny enough to cause actual tears. It serves as a feline-specific alternative to the classic š and is a staple in meme culture when sharing hilarious animal videos or relatable pet content.
History
This emoji was added in 2010 as part of Unicode 6.0. It was created to bridge the gap between popular internet facial expressions and the widespread affection for cat-themed emoticons, which have been a massive part of online communication since the early days of chat rooms and image boards.
