In many Asian countries like China and Japan, black cats are revered for their association with good luck, prosperity and for warding off evil spirits. The origin of Maneki Neko is debated, but one popular tale tells of local ruler Ii Naotaka. While at Gotoku-ji temple in Setagaya Ward, Tokyo, he was saved from a lightning strike by Tama, the temple's cat. Tama's action made the cat a symbol of luck at the temple. It's traditional for the cat to hold the hand up with the palm facing forward and the fingers curled over, to beckon people closer. Maneki Neko translates as “beckoning cat.” Maneki Neko - Black Cat - Lucky Cat - Birthday - Graduation - Good Luck - 5x7 Archival Framable Card, Design by Print Chapel
