What Does the ๐ฟ crying cat Emoji Mean?
A cat face with eyes screwed shut and a visible tear running down one side, mouth turned down. It belongs to the expressive cat series rather than the animal section, which means it conveys sadness rather than denoting a cat, and the animal framing softens the emotion into something closer to pitiable than genuinely distressed.

About crying cat Emoji
Usage: Disappointment delivered gently is what it does, in situations where a human crying face would land too heavily. People post it about their own pets looking hard done by, a performance cats are unusually skilled at. It also works self-deprecatingly, where exaggerated sorrow over something trivial is itself the joke, and the animal face signals that nobody should worry.
Encoded in Unicode 6.0 in 2010 as one of nine cat faces that mirror the main human expressions. The full set covers grinning, joy, heart eyes, wry, kissing, weary, crying, pouting and one with no mouth at all, all inherited from Japanese carrier icons.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between ๐ฟ and ๐ข?
Register. The cat framing makes sadness lighter and slightly comic, while the human crying face reads as genuine. One suits a trivial disappointment, the other does not.
How many expressive cat faces are there?
Nine in total, each echoing a human smiley. The whole group arrived together in 2010 rather than accumulating one at a time, which is why their drawing style is so consistent.
Is ๐ฟ in the animals category?
No, it sits among the smileys. The plain cat face in the animals section denotes the creature, while these nine carry emotions.
