THE LONGEST CAT
THE LONGEST CAT
ON THE INTERNET
Nobiko was a real white cat who became famous online under the name Longcat. Her image spread through 2chan and other internet communities during the mid-2000s and became one of the defining absurd memes of early internet culture.
Long Cat — known as $NOBIKO in Japan — was posted, reposted, cropped, stretched, and battled across forums, wikis, and meme threads for nearly twenty years. No moderator could contain her. No thread could hold her.
