🐱

Katzengesicht

Meow! A friendly, cartoon-styled face of a cat, looking straight ahead. Generally depicted as a yellowish-orange cat face with pointed ears and whiskers.

May be used with a more affectionate tone than the full-bodied 🐈 Cat, though their applications generally overlap.

Available as an Apple Animoji.

Vendors implement the same or similar cat in their 🐈 Cat as well as in their cat-faced variants of smileys:

Google’s cat face was previously orange, Samsung’s gray, and Facebook’s once gray and white. Included in the earliest Japanese emoji sets from Softbank, Docomo, and au by KDDI.

Katzengesicht wurde als Teil von Unicode 6.0 in 2010 genehmigt und zu Emoji 1.0 in 2015 hinzugefügt.
