Henri, the dour-faced Internet cat suffering from ennui, has accepted an offer from Friskies to become a corporate fat-cat sellout.

According to AdWeek, the French New New Wave star and winner of the coveted Golden Kitty award at this year’s Internet Cat Video Film Festival is now a Friskies spokescat. Will Braden, the voice of Henri (science has confirmed that cats are not as articulate as their facial expressions would have us believe), explains that he and Henri have been “commissioned by Friskies to explore the phenomenon of cat food boredom,” which wouldn’t be a phenomenon if certain cat owners stopped feeding their cats Fancy Feast in crystal stemware.
