Inspiration came from Patron (Ukrainian: Патрон, pronounced [pɐˈtrɔn]; lit. 'cartridge'; born 20 July 2019), who is a detection dog and mascot for the State Emergency Service of Ukraine. He is a Jack Russell Terrier.

Patron first came to prominence during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, during which Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy awarded him the Order for Courage for his work in locating and defusing unexploded ordnance left behind by Russian troops. As of 8 May 2022, Patron has found 236 such devices.

"Tokyo is becoming more and more tempting - monsters from all over the world are striving to win the title of its ruler. And now the sensitive nose of the Ukrainian superdog turns towards the Japanese capital, and Cyberkitty presses her metal ears to her armored head and hisses furiously. No other monster has ever made her so nervous, and it's not even about fighting for a metropolis, it's the age-old confrontation between dogs and cats - no matter their size, dogs and cats as tall as skyscrapers are vulnerable to these instincts."
