Choose from three Yakushigama lucky cat options: two stationary sizes and a larger waving-paw model.

8.5 cm Left Paw Still: the smaller stationary option, with its left paw raised.

15 cm Left Paw Still: a stationary calico cat with its left paw raised and the inscription 招福大開運, a wish for good fortune. No battery is needed.

20.5 cm Right Waving: a larger cat whose right paw moves when switched on. It carries a 来福 plaque, meaning “fortune arriving,” and runs on one AA battery, not included.

In common maneki neko tradition, the left paw welcomes people and the right invites financial good fortune. Each figure is coloured by hand, so small differences in colour placement may occur.
