Who would like this?: Internet enthusiasts, cat lovers, kids, teens, moms who watch The Today Show, and pretty much anyone else — because it's Grumpy Cat.

Even the biggest Scrooges won't be able to say "Bah, Humbug!" at this adorable line of Grumpy Cat plushes. Grumpy Cat (whose real name is Tardar Sauce), is one of the biggest Internet celebs of 2013, adored by more than 2.4 million Facebook fans. But she's no longer just an online sensation — from endorsing Friskies as its official spokescat to landing a movie deal, this cat is a full-on superstar.

Now, the Internet-famous feline has spread her paws further off the web and into merchandise as fluffy and soft as the kitten herself.

Sure, the spirit of Christmas doesn't exactly scream grumpiness — unless you're talking about the crowded malls and eggnog hangovers — but this adorable plush will commiserate with you during rougher holiday moments (like grandma's rant about your love life).

Grumpy Cat has a number of plush toys available this holiday season.

The classic sitting Grumpy Cat plush, made by Gund, is available in stores and a number of places online, including Urban Outfitters.

Toy company Ganz makes this 5-inch by 9-inch plush, featuring Grumpy in a T-shirt captioning her signature line about fun. This is a classic gift choice for anyone who loves a traditional captioned meme. It's also terrific for anyone who loves cats, but is bitter because allergies prevent them from owning one.

This window-clinging Grumpy Cat will look great in your sister's car when she's stuck in horrendous traffic on the way home from holiday festivities. It's also perfect for distracting or amusing small children, if you need a gift idea for moms with a sense of humor.

The plush ball Grumpy Cat is so squeezably giggle-inducing, you'll completely forget about her looks of loathing and hatred. This grump ball is great for anyone who secretly despises cats, but not enough to ever actually cause them physical harm — let them get their kicks out of this ball of crabby fluff, instead.

Finally, the classic Grumpy Cat plush is a foolproof choice for just about anyone who uses the Internet — because, let's face it, Grumpy Cat fever has taken over, and we can't think of anyone who doesn't appreciate her adorable face. Even Oscar the Grouch can't seem to resist her.
