U+8C93 "貓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents a cat, specifically the feline animal, and is used across multiple East Asian languages including Traditional Chinese, Japanese (as the kanji for neko), and Korean (as the hanja for myo). Its form combines the radical for "beast" or "animal" (豸) with a phonetic component (苗) that hints at its pronunciation, and it serves as a common logogram in written texts, personal names, and cultural contexts, symbolizing domesticity, grace, and superstition in various traditions.
