Limecat is an internet meme featuring an angry-looking cat with a lime cut to resemble a helmet on its head. Being a cat with a lime on its head, it is by nature a sourpuss. Hundreds of captions were added, making it a popular image macro. Its cousins are Lemoncat (see below) and Mooncat.


History of Limecat

Limecat is an Internet meme, which used to be located at Limecat.net. The site contains an image of a scowling cat wearing what one would assume is a carved lime. However, it is now known that it is a carved pomelo. (It is a Chinese tradition to put the rind of a pomelo on one’s head during the Mid-Autumn Festival.) The image has the tagline “Limecat is not pleased.” Limecat is also known as “Meloncat”, “General Whiskers”, “Helmet cat” and He is also the earliest instance of the meme “X does not approve.” For some strange reason no one knows the origin of Limecat. It is either because it started on 4chan, or the records were just lost. From Urban Dictionary:

Destroyer of Clockspider and his evil followers. Limecat is the one true god, the god of all. If you defy Limecat, he is known to give you the Frown of Doom which leads to decomposition of the penis. Limecat may also give you the Glare of Justice, which he was known to give to Clockspider before biting off his ninth leg. All hail Limecat, king of the universe, king of cats everywhere. He also uses pedigree. The Legend of Limecat

From Dramatica: The ultimate god of cats everywhere. His head is capped by a natural outgrowth known as the “Mystic Rind”, which originally was a solid lime. During the epic battle with Clock Spider, several gashes were rent into the lime, creating a bang-like effect. Limecat responded by chewing off the Clock Spider’s ninth leg and cast it into the sky, where it became the God of most religions. Limecat is seldom pleased, and only his priests have ever seen him do anything more than frown and glare. He has an illegitimate kitten, Linecat, who is marked by his lack of hair apart from his head and paws.
