Mercat

By cryotosensei | travelinJapan | 19 Feb 2026


I'm sure you must have heard a lot about the Merlion and the Japanese lucky cat but have you heard of the Mercat?

I was surprised when I encountered the Mercat for the first time. In actual fact, it is made up of the face of the Japanese lucky cat and the body of the Merlion. Although I find it a little weird, I must say that I respect the creator of this idea for coming up with such a great business opportunity. Haha.

シンガポールのマーライオンと日本のまねき猫を聞くことは多いはずですが、「Mercat」という物を知っていますか。

私は初めてMercat を見て、吃驚しました。実は、顔はまねき猫と同じです。そして、体はマーライオンと同じです。少しおかしい物だと思いますけど、商売上のよい機会なので、 ビジネスにした人をそんけい [尊敬] しています。
