Legendary Japanese lucky cat
There is a tradition of placing a small statue of a cat in the window of your store or restaurant to lure customers. The Japanese lucky cat, also known as Maneki Neko, comes from the legend of a famous Japanese aristocrat whose cat was killed by a servant while trying to save her from a snake. An artist carved the first feline from wood for the grieving woman, and the cat with a paw up to its ear became a symbol of luck and prosperity.
