PLOT:

(via Lifetime) It’s not a wonderful life for Grumpy Cat, the Internet meme sensation with nearly six million Facebook friends! The infamous kitty, with the naturally, but endearing sad looking facial expression, will star in her very own live-action Christmas movie, "Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever," premiering this coming holiday season on Lifetime.

In "Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever," Grumpy Cat is a lonely cat living in a mall pet shop. Because she always gets passed over and never gets chosen by customers, this kitty develops a sour outlook on life until…one day during the holidays, a very special 12-year-old girl named Chyrstal enters the pet store and falls in love with Grumpy Cat. A unique friendship is formed between the two when Chyrstal finds she is the only person who can hear this unique feline talk. In the middle of the holiday rush, Grumpy reluctantly thwarts the kidnapping of an expensive exotic dog she can’t stand and rescues Chyrstal after the mall closes on Christmas Eve. Will Grumpy Cat learn the true meaning of Christmas, or will it be in Grumpy’s words, “Worst. Christmas. Ever?”

Alex’s fiancé Peter is a little nervous when his parents decide to stay for a pre-Christmas visit, but their eccentric, charming ways soon begin to awaken Alex’s hidden inner child. With fairy tale snowfalls, Mrs Claus’ magical ways in the kitchen and the somewhat surprising discovery of a sick reindeer in the garage, Alex’s six-year-old son Max begins to suspect the exciting truth. Caught up in the enchantment surrounding her perspective-in-laws, Alex doesn’t realise her cynical father and jealous colleague are plotting against the Claus’ in a bid to win Alex back to their sceptical world. With the wedding on the brink of being cancelled, it’s a battle of heart versus mind, with Christmas itself at stake.
