In Japanese culture, shop owners often place a waving cat figurine (Maneki-neko) in their store windows to invite good fortune, wealth, and customers.
It's a tiny, silent mascot โ one paw up, waving luck into your life.
So naturallyโฆ
I built one for websites.
๐งโโ๏ธ Introducing: LuckyCat Popup
Itโs a small floating cat that lives in the corner of your site. It waves. Thatโs it.
No tracking. No user data. Just quiet charm.
I call it LuckyCat Popup, and itโs somewhere between:
- a superstition-inspired widget
- a digital art experiment
- and a very unserious marketing tool
You install it by pasting one line of HTML:
<!-- Add Luck -->
<script src="https://absurd.website/lucky-cat/luckycat.js"></script>
Thatโs it. The cat appears in the corner and starts waving at your visitors. ๐ฑ๐
๐บ Why?
Because eCommerce is hard.
And sometimesโฆ maybe you just need a little luck.
LuckyCat Popup is part of a bigger project at absurd.website where I build weird services & tools that kind of work โ even if no one asked for them.
๐ Case Study (kind of)
Before: struggling with abandoned carts.
After: yacht. Sushi. VC attention. Bikini deck pitch calls.
What changed?
Just one line of code.
Okay, maybe not.
But the cat definitely waved.

If you end up using it, drop me a link! I'd love to feature real examples in a showcase section.
