Japanese Yokai Bakeneko- Dancing Cat Coffee Mug
These dancing cats are bakeneko, a yokai monster from Japanese folklore! Bakeneko are known to stand up on their hind legs and dance, and are especially fond of licking lamp oil. Aside from cats being generally enigmatic and stealthy, it has been proposed that cats in old Japan were attracted to fish oil used in lanterns, so you can imagine a cat standing up to lick that oil, illuminated by the lantern's ghostly glow and inspiring the form of this yokai.
