Lucky Cat Beckons to You


The Maneki Neko or "beckoning cat" is an age-old Japanese icon of luck and prosperity. It is said that long ago a weary traveler found solace in a temple after following a cat inside. The traveler rewarded the temple, and so the legend began. You can download or create your own Maneki Neko here. Also, the fun site goodsfromjapan.blogspot.com offers a great black cat version. Be sure to browse the site.
