The handicap made her look adorable and prompted her to become a celebrity with a huge fanbase all around the world. This documentary examines the Internet’s ever-growing obsession with cat videos, taking Bub’s story as a starting point and including other famous felines such as Grumpy Cat, Nyan Cat and Keyboard Cat.
