The Nyan Cat's popularity has been steadily increasing since the meme first surfaced in April of 2011.

Nyan Cat has spawned countless other videos, some featuring different ""covers"" of the original (smooth jazz Nyan cat, seriously). The Nyan Cat meme craze is spreading to the craftsters, too. People on Etsy are offering everything from Nyan cat scarves to cross stitch patterns to Nyan Cat plush toys. Without further adieu, we proudly present this list of the absolute very best of the Nyan Cat meme - enjoy!
