- 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 were Maneki-neko often depicted holding a gold coin, but they were also used as coin banks quite often. On top of that, tiny coin offerings were sometimes left near the Maneki-Neko as a request for good luck, fortune, or for wish fulfillment.
- A spinning coin may also be a reference to the spinning coins of the Super Mario series.
- The cute and simple design and her general shape may also be inspired by the popular Sanrio mascots, such as Hello Kitty. This is furthermore in tune with Nekoin's theme, as many Maneki-Neko figurines resemble Hello Kitty quite closely.
