The gold-tone lucky cat you see in shop windows: turquoise bib, red collar, black plate on its belly and a left paw that waves back and forth. Three styles: a small solar-powered plastic cat, the classic 17 cm cat and the large 21 cm cat.
Choose from the options above: Small, solar-powered (12 cm), Classic, battery-powered (17 cm) or Large, battery-powered (21 cm).
About this piece
The classic and large styles have a porcelain body and plastic parts; they run on one or two AA or AAA batteries (not included, battery holder with no cover and no switch: the paw moves continuously). The small plastic style is powered by a small solar panel: the paw moves as soon as it receives light.
Small parts and batteries: keep out of the reach of young children.
Tracked parcel. Free on orders of €49 or more up to 5 kg, otherwise €5.99 to €19.99 depending on the weight of the order. Learn more

Symbolism and tradition
In the Japanese (maneki-neko) and Chinese tradition, the cat with a raised paw is a good-luck charm placed at the entrance of a shop or a home to welcome luck and customers; the left paw is associated with visitors, the right with money. It is chosen for its cultural meaning and for its cheerful look.
This symbolism is a matter of tradition. It is neither a promise of results nor medical advice.
