Kami Neko

[edit]

An emperor one day passed by a cat, which seemed to wave to him. Taking the cat's motion as a sign, the emperor paused and went to it. Diverted from his journey, he realized that he had avoided a trap that had been laid for him just ahead. Since that time, cats have been considered wise and lucky spirits. Many Japanese shrines and homes include a figurine of a cat with one pay upraised as if waving-hence Kami Neko. Problem is, I don't know which emperor. Help? Chris 02:00, 21 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps you can't find the source for this story, because you're thinking of the maneki neko, the beckoning cat. This was not an emperor but a samurai by the name of Ii Naotaka in the 17th century passing in front of the temple Gotoku-ji. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.5.125.75 (talkcontribs) -- Chris 01:15, 6 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

[edit]

The top of this disambiguation page starts "Neko (ネコ or ねこ or 猫, cat)", without a topic, and then goes on to list several other, non-Japanese, examples. This can't be correct. Per MOS:DABPRIMARY, the primary topic must have a WP page. Should it be an individual list entry, and point to Maneki-neko? Masato.harada (talk) 18:28, 11 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
