'New York's Maneki neko: Bodega cats'

'In storefronts across Japan and Asia, the Maneki-neko, or "Lucky Cat," is a symbol of good fortune, attracting customers and prosperity. Now, in New York City, another kind of "Lucky Cat" is drawing attention online.'

Aww 😊 I hope you see more! In NY we used to call them all #BodegaCats because most of the bodegas (24 hour convenience stores, just in case you didn't know) had one or two for mousing. There was a fun account on insta for them, too.
