🐾 What is 11 Piki no Neko Anyway?
Let’s back up a bit. If you’re new to the world of Japanese stationery (welcome, friend!) or haven’t met the 11 Cats yet, here’s the scoop:
“11 Piki no Neko” is a famous Japanese picture book series created by Noboru Baba. It started in 1967 (yep, before TikTok existed!), and it’s about a gang of silly, adventurous cats who get into all kinds of fun trouble. 🐱🐱🐱 They’re playful, wild, and always stick together—even when things get a little crazy.
After six books and over 50 years of fame, these mischievous cats are now starring in their very own stationery collection. And let’s just say…it’s cuter than a kitten in a teacup. ☕🐈
