GENESIS: The MANEKI-NEKO 招き猫 (beckoning cat) is a symbol of luck and prosperity, found in many homes and businesses, throughout Asia and much of the world.

"CYBERNEKO" is the 21st century version of a tribe of lucky cats, created by French-British author, artist and designer Henry Chebaane, inspired by his love of Cyberpunk stories, Manga, Anime and Asian cultures.

Henry is the author of the cult steampunk graphic novel series THE PANHARMONION CHRONICLES, a blend of mystery, horror, sci-fi and alternative history. It is while writing his new novel KINGDOM UNITED, (due out 2025) that the idea for “CYBERNEKO” came to him. The story is about Neeta Rao, a Singaporean botanist who becomes a vigilante on the streets of London. She has multiple family issues and find comfort in the company of the cats she rescues. In her flat she keeps a collectible toy as a reminder of her childhood in Katong.



BACKSTORY: This collectible toy is a cool cat called "O-TABBI". Her mother used to tell the bedside story of a regular tabby cat roaming the back alleys at night to defend his neighbourhood against all sorts of nasty people.

This first version of "O-TABBI" is called "Earl Grey" to honour his new home of London’s Camden. His body is a warm, deep smoky grey with jet black stripes. His ears, nose, shield and collar are hi-lighted in a soft hue of metallic copper. His eyes are white with large black pupils with a thin gold rim. Did we say handsome?
