Alas, it seems that torch, too, has been passed to the People's Republic, where a cat named Snoopybabe is currently giving his American counterparts a run for their Instagram followers.
Snoopybabe, ironically an American Exotic Shorthair, has amassed nearly 200,000 followers on Instagram and just under 300,000 followers on Weibo since his owner, Miss Ning, began uploading photo of him a few months back.
