See the two cute Maneki Neko or Lucky Cats on the right. Well, the brownish one is beckoning love and the white white is beckoning marriage. So, if you are single and looking for love or are in a relationship and want commitment, do download this cute cat onto your computer. Who knows this cat might just work wonders for your love life!
Let me take up some of your time to introduce the legend of Maneki Neko. The article is taken from http://www.actioncat.com/luckycat.html#Maneki. In the 17th century, there was a rundown and poverty-stricken temple in Tokyo. The temple's priest was very poor, but he shared what little food he had with his pet cat, Tama. One day, a wealthy and important man was caught in a storm while hunting and he took refuge under a big tree near the temple. While he waited for the storm to pass, the man noticed a cat beckoning him to come inside the temple gate. This was so startling that he left the shelter of the tree to have a closer look at this unusual cat. At that moment, the tree was struck by lighting. As a result, the wealthy man became friends with the poor priest, and the temple became prosperous. The priest and his cat never went hungry again.
When Tama died he was buried in the Goutokuji Temple's cat cemetery with respect and love, and the Maneki Neko was made in honor of him. A Maneki Neko in your place of business, your home or on your website is said to bring in good luck and visitors.
Maneki Neko is Japanese for "beckoning cat." The message he's holding says "Please come in. You are welcome!" and he is beckoning you with his paw . Whether you believe in this kind of thing or not, he's a cute little cat with a gracious message, and he does brighten up a home or a web page!
The web master for the blog I downloaded the lucky cats and article welcomes you to take a Maneki Neko for your own websites with the request: that you link it to an animal welfare site -- a shelter, a charity, a campaign page; any website that helps animals. That way the little Maneki Neko can go on doing good deeds.

In my case, I don't think I need to link to any campaign site as by doing this blog I am already trying to help people (the highest order of living organisms in the animal kingdom) to become happier.
