The black maneki neko, lucky cat in Japanese, holds the meaning of warding off evil and misfortune. It was believed that black cats had good night vision and strong spiritual power, so they were regarded as “lucky cats” and considered symbols of good fortune and protection against evil. In Kyoto, they were also seen as symbols of thriving business.
