Leftover dummy item

The dummy model used by unused items in Animal Crossing.

In Animal Crossing, the maneki-neko is still leftover in the game data as a dummy item, unobtainable without gameplay modification or glitches. It has the unused name "lucky cat" and uses the dummy model, a white triangle with red Japanese text reading ダミー (damī, dummy). Its name was also translated to other languages in the European version of Animal Crossing, with the name "gato suerte" in Spanish, "chat fétiche" in French, "Glückskatze" in German, and "gatto fortuna" in Italian.

Real-life information

Real life image of a lucky cat.

The maneki-neko (招き猫?), meaning beckoning cat, is a Japanese figurine said to give good luck to the owner. Usually made of ceramic or plastic, the cat is usually depicted under the Japanese Bobtail breed, but other variants were also created, including black to ward off evil, and yellow/gold for wealth. The cat holds a koban coin, and has one paw raised in a beckoning gesture; this paw may be mechanized to move back and forth.

The maneki-neko was thought to have originated from Edo (present-day Tokyo), where Imado dolls were sold in the region. The earliest known recording of the maneki-neko dates back to 1852, in the ukiyo-e piece Joruri-machi Hanka no zu. More information on this topic is available at Wikipedia.
