The caracal cat became an Internet star under the name Big Floppa

Big Floppa is an Internet meme centered on a caracal named Gregory, known for his large tufted ears. His popularity began after the publication of a photo of him by his owner Andrey on Instagram on December 24, 2019. The meme then spread from Russian communities to English-speaking and French-speaking spaces, even leading to a television interview of his owners in June 2021.
