 Re: Loving this cat
I thought black cats were bad luck I guess, there's a bit of an irony here.

 Re: Loving this cat
Yes, it is especially if you saw one at night on the street

I'm from the South East and this is what most of us believe: if you encounter a black cat--especially at night--you will experience bad luck. Black Fortune cat might be a toy to counter the bad luck??

 Re: Loving this cat
I think in the U.K a black cat is a sign of good luck- Im sure you send them to people on cards and stuff when their are about to take a test or somthing.

 Re: Loving this cat
I got one of the mini fortune cats back in Feb, and just picked up another. After the first I was like cool, I don't really need more. Now I realize I need more... so awesome!

We're up to 27 now.  I try not to count very often. I display them on tiered spice racks (sold at Target in kitchen section) and I do know how many a rack holds...and how many racks I have...but I try not to think about it. LOL. SDCC & Shinto was a new rack itself! <3 the >^-^<'s !

 Re: Loving this cat
Great new colors! Very partial to the pea green myself. It's been touched on by a several photos, but this years SDCC cats really are awesome! Especially all the Uamou cats. Everything she has colored with RxH have been far from disappointing!

 Re: Loving this cat
Something interesting for the cat lovers...  From what I can determine, this is probably a Meiji era ceramic Maneki Neko. Close to or more than 100 years old. It's small- only maybe 4" tall- and stylistically very different from the typical modern Neko that inspired the Fortune Cats (note the collar and bell instead of the bib). Unfortunately, it doesn't belong to me. =^,^=
