The adorable Shiba Inu from Japan rose to online stardom after being featured in the 2013 Doge meme. Later on, her photo was used for the Dogecoin cryptocurrency, considered the first “meme coin” due to its satirical nature (though its peak market capitalization was of millions of dollars).
The Doge meme consists of a photo of the pedigree dog accompanied by multicolored text in Comic Sans font.
Kabosu was adopted by kindergarten teacher Atsuko Sato in 2008. In 2022, her owner announced that the dog was ill with leukemia. Kabosu passed away peacefully at her home on May 24, 2024 at the age of 18. A memorial service dedicated to the internet sensation drew more than 50 fans.
