Heart, Moon and Mew: Lucky Wishing Cat

by Valerie Savarie

A new year, a new moon, a new mew!

This little cat is here to help you bring in the new year by granting you one wish with its magical coin. Simply hold the coin, make a wish and place the coin behind its head. Although this is a cat and we know how fickle they can be so don’t be surprised if you find the coin under the couch along with some toy mice with your wish not fulfilled.
