Hiko-Neko looks like a spinning pink plate with a cat face on both of its sides. It constantly spins around. By interacting with it [[Madotsuki ]] will receive the [[Effects|Cat Effect]] . It's rather hard to catch because it's so fast. That's why using the [[Effects|Stoplight Effect]] when triyng to catch it is recommended. It can be found in the [[Shield-Folk World]].
Nekoin has the appearance of a pink, cat-shaped coin with a cat face on both sides. It has two dark-red eyes and little violet eyelashes that stick out a little when viewed from the side. It is constantly on the move through Shield-Folk World, making it a bit difficult to find and catch. As such, it is recommended to bring the [[Yume Nikki:Effects#Bicycle|Bicycle]] effect to catch up to it. Once caught and interacted with, it will give [[Yume Nikki:Madotsuki|Madotsuki]] the [[Yume Nikki:Effects#Cat|Cat]] effect.

*The Cat effect references the "Maneki-neko" figure, a Japanese talisman supposed to bring good luck and fortune. Nekoin's appearance resembling a coin ties into this, as not only are Maneki-neko often depicted holding a gold coin, but they are also used as coin banks quite often. On top of that, tiny coin offerings are sometimes left near the Maneki-Neko as a request for good luck, fortune, or for wish fulfillment.
#Boy-Cat
*Its design of a spinning coin may be a reference to the spinning coins of the [http://www.mariowiki.com/Coin Super Mario series].

Nekoin has the appearance of a pink, cat-shaped coin with a cat face on both sides. It has two dark-red eyes and little violet eyelashes that stick out a little when viewed from the side. It is constantly on the move through Shield-Folk World, making it a bit difficult to find and catch. As such, it is recommended to bring the Bicycle effect to catch up to it. Once caught and interacted with, it will give Madotsuki the Cat effect.
