Today one of internet´s most famous cats died. Little Bub was born with a extreme case of feline dwarfism and a bunch of medical conditions, despite all of this she was a happy girl. A group of scientists launched a campaign on the website Experiment.com to sequence Lil Bub's genome. The purpose of this project is to better understand Lil Bub's unique appearance (for example, her extra digits). The campaign reached its funding goal on May 25, 2015.[19] The scientists found Lil Bub has a mutation in gene RANK/TNFRSF11A, a mutation that has also been found in one mouse and fifteen humans so far. Their research on Lil Bub is published at bioRxiv. Today she died in her sleep. Lets all join and wish her well in the other life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekKUmaL2R2g

Seeing as the owners lost grumpy cat too, are they going to have to get real jobs now or do they have some other mutant cat waiting its turn at meme fame?

I think little bub and grumpy cat are cute but I'm sad that they were popular because god knows people are right now trying to breed hosed up mutants that are in constant pain and can't walk. All for our aesthetic enjoyment.

I'm glad that Bub finally has some peace from her health issues and owners parading her around the world for profit.

Based on the thread title I assumed this was a semi-famous SoundCloud rapper who got shot outside a discount tire and rim shop or something.

I am not familiar with this cat but share a kinship in the fact that we both have "dolt face". I hope I am remembered with even a fraction of the same reverence.

I bought some cat litter endorsed by Lil Bub when I got my cats last month and I think one of my cats was allergic to it or something since she sneezed her head off when in it so I stopped using it. That's my Lil Bub story, rest in peace dead cat.

Dear Humanity, stop turning hosed up animals into internet celebrities. You're dooming them to an early grave.

Was she ever not at peace? She was a cat so her perception of her own individual existence in relation to other cats or even humans was totally non existent
