My cats love wandering outside but if someone is sick at home they just do their duty and stay with the sick person all day long.

It’s crazy to think about how a simple Doge meme impacted the world. The fact that Dogecoin was created in 2013 as a joke and is now the 8th biggest cryptocurrency in the world just proves its influence. A meme based on a peculiar rescue dog holding billions of dollars of market value speaks volumes about the strange phenomenon of internet memes.
But now the Doge fandom commemorates the Shiba inu dog, Kabosu, passing away. Its 62-year-old owner, Atsuko Sato, a kindergarten teacher from the city of Sakura in Chiba Prefecture, Japan, confirmed the news on May 24.
"She quietly passed away as if asleep while I caressed her," Atsuko Sato wrote on her blog. "I think Kabo-chan was the happiest dog in the world. And I was the happiest owner."

“I hate cats.” Death’s face became a little stiffer, if that were possible. The blue glow in his eye sockets flickered red for an instant. I SEE, he said. The tone suggested that death was too good for cat-haters. Death has priorities | Terry Pratchett, Wyrd Sisters

"Alright birbs, you're not getting anywhere near my turf. I've got a f*****g lucky sock! What've you got?"
Kabosu has been fighting leukemia and liver disease since late 2022. As a rescue dog, her real age was unknown, but her owner estimated her to be 18—past the average lifespan for such a breed.
The dog’s family hosted a farewell party to celebrate Kabosu on May 26 in Narita City at Flower Kaori in Kotsu no Mori. More than 250 fans attended, including media outlets from the Middle East and Germany.
Many people brought photos, stuffed toys, and wore T-shirts with Kabosu’s image, showing just how much influence the dog had on people. Dogecoin also paid tribute to its inspiration on X, saying she was a "being who knew only happiness and limitless love."
“Ever since Kabosu came into my home, a series of miraculous things have happened, enriching my life and gifting me with a treasure trove of priceless moments,” Sato told a Japanese newspaper.
The canine mascot made the owner very proud. In fact, last year, in November, a $100,000 statue of Kabosu funded by fans was unveiled in a park in Sakura.

I had a cat, Truffle, who guarded my twins' nursery door when they were sleeping. Her co-cat Jinx insisted on testing their food.
Both the dog and the owner are also known for helping those in need. In 2021, Sato raised more than 500 million yen for children’s rights groups in Japan and beyond by auctioning Kabosu’s photos. Moreover, she would bring her furry friend to kindergartens to cheer up the children who were excited to pet and play with her.

When I go to work, I say to my dog 'OK, Alfie. You're in charge. If any burglars show up, bite 'em' (not that he would, the sook)
Kabosu’s and her owner's journey to fame started with just an ordinary picture taken one day in 2010. It was uploaded to Sato's blog and later shared on Reddit, where it gained massive attention.
To her, there was nothing special about the image. “I took the photos to update my blog,” she said. “I take a lot of pictures every day, so that day was nothing out of the ordinary. Kabosu loves having her photo taken, so she was delighted to have the camera pointed towards her,” she told the Know Your Meme website.
“A friend found it on an online news site and told me about it,” Sato said. “When I first found out about the Kabosu memes, I was very surprised. I was terrified at the thought that just one photo I had casually posted on my blog could spread all over the world to places I didn’t know.”
To this day, she remains baffled by such internet fame. “I didn’t know anything, and I still don’t really understand."

When I lived at the countryside a local stray catmom came to me for a few days. I gave her some food and later she brought her two kittens. She wandered off and left them with me. They were very shy at first but build trust quickly and became very close to me. They lived with me for couple of months when one day the mother returned. The little kitty family stayed for a few more days and then went on to other adventures.

Beautiful! The oddity is the notch in her ear which usually indicates a spayed trap and release kitty. Maybe it's just coincidence, maybe she was spayed after weaning, or maybe they are her adopted babies. 😻

For some reason it cracks me up that they're all black except for the one.

Lady needs to start working on feeding them so Mom gets a tiny break and as she gains the babies trust she will also be helping them avoid being feral, maybe they can gain furever homes and the lady could take in Mom and make sure she doesn't have to live feral having litter after litter till something goes wrong.

Awe I love cats. I'm actually sitting in my garage right now playing with a kitten that some neighborhood strays have decided to bring to my house every night. I'm to the point where I can pet her. It started with one and since they started out feral I have just been feeding them and making sure they have access to a warm, comfy place to sleep. They've been multiple lol. It like they just know they are safe here. Or they tell their friends.

Unpopular fact: you shouldn't feed stray cats, they decimate the bird population which is vital for the environment. Cats don't have natural predators, ergo they are an invasive species.

I would think that a cat with a full belly wouldn't need to hunt. In many cases the strays are adopted into the house and hopefully spayed or neutered.

Momma cats have done this to me for years. A family who lived on the corner had an unspayed female whom I fed. For 4 years in the mid 2000s she would give birth at their house and at about 5 weeks, she would bring them over to my deck. Our outside cats do them same; they give birth outside and present the kittens on our deck. Momma knows they will be fed and cared for.

I'm trying to get some kittens from behind some tubs and boxes in my garage so they will quit leaving dead birds, squirrels, chipmunks, mice....and so forth in my stored stuff. Any suggestions? I don't want to hurt them but they're feral and right vicious little turds and I don't want them hurting me. I just want them to move to a new, airy-er location. That dead stuff reeks!

This how you become the mad cat lady on the street. You didn't even go looking for it. It arrived.
The Doge meme has become one of the most recognizable memes on the Internet. The intentional misspelling is commonly credited to an episode of Homestar Runner, an animated comedy series.
The memes include Kabosu lying on the couch with her paws crossed and wearing a side-eyed expression. Typically, this format features short phrases imitating the dog’s inner thoughts with grammatical errors such as “Very winter. Many freeze.” In 2013, it was even ranked as the top meme of the year.

Soft can-openers always trying to make people get off of things.
This adorable pooch has been featured in everything from Swedish transportation campaigns to Doge-themed Easter eggs created by Google and YouTube. In April 2023, Elon Musk replaced Twitter’s blue bird logo with a picture of Kabosu after he bought the social media platform.
Musk is clearly one of the fans of this iconic puppy, joining those mourning her death. He posted a picture of Harrambe, another late meme animal, hugging the dog in heaven.

I got absolutely pummeled by my cat with her cone. She ended up in the cone 3 times in a couple months from surgery, then complications from the surgery. She's fine now. Well, minus an eye. But she's my little Pirate so I forgive her for trying to kill me with the cone.

Nooooo not the toilet water! They can get sick! Either by unclean toilet bowl, or by any cleaning chemicals that don't get properly scrubbed out from under the toilet lip and leech down. If you're going away, Keep your toilet lid shut and take the top off the tank. That way you make sure there's a clean emergency supply if something happens that your cat sitter can't make it there due to weather or personal emergencies.

Why are people always washing cats? They almost never need it, only in emergency situations. It destroys their natural oils. They clean themselves. I have lived with cats most of a long life & never washed a single one!

Precisely. I had four older brothers. One of their games when they were horsing around was for three of them to gang up on the fourth, hold him down, then fart in his face. Typical boy game, I know, but I witnessed it happen many times, so can verify it happened. A lot. That is exactly what this picture looks like.

If only Vincent had had an emotional support cat. Things could’ve been very different. We may not have had the paintings we have now, but who’s to say he wouldn’t still have produced different but equally amazing masterpieces? He still would’ve had his issues, but with the cat to help him through the tough times, he just might have lived a longer and somewhat less tortured life, and created even more of them. Who knows?

I was judging a short story competition once and had all the entries laid out around the living room floor so I could sort them. While I was in the kitchen, one of the cats took a dead rat into the living room, eviscerated it, and ran right around the room with it, dragging entrails across all the entries. It took me hours to wipe them down, white-out the blood stains, and then photocopy the affected pages so I wasn't passing entrail-goopy pages on to the other judges.

Lol. We had a chow mix growing up that would eat the heads off the daisies that poked through the railing on the sidewalk. He could get to the entire flowerbed, but he only ever ate the ones poked over to 'his' side.
