Army of Lucky Cats

[What an utterly charming installation piece. Boy, I'm sure glad *I* didn't have to wire up all those damn cats. -egg]

Army of Lucky Cats:
Boris Petrovsky writes: "The Maneki Neko (jap., literally Beckoning Cat; aka Lucky Cat, Money Cat) is a common Japanese figurine which is believed to bring luck, attract customers and bring prosperity. The Lucky Cat waves with the raised left paw and holds a historic coin in front of itself with the right one. The Lucky Cat as talisman and selling product is wide-spread in Asia and meanwhile almost all over the world."
