Weary cat Emoji

Smileys

A cartoon cat face with wide, shocked eyes, a wrinkled brow, and an open mouth. It captures a look of total exasperation or overwhelming stress.

Usage Context

Used to express feelings of being burned out, overwhelmed by a workload, or genuinely shocked by bad news. It acts as a feline alternative to the human 😩 or 😱 faces, often showing up in group chats when someone is venting about a rough day or a chaotic situation.

History

Part of the expansion of cat-themed variants in Unicode 6.0, this design was created to bridge the gap between popular internet cat memes and the growing need for nuanced emotional expressions in digital messaging.
