I'm wearing a bamboo corn
Bamboo caulking is a talisman that washes away diseases, and by covering the dog with a bamboo caulking, it is also a sign of the Edo people's elegance that says "dogs" with "bamboo" and "lol". Although there is no character "bamboo" in "cat", I tried wearing a bamboo corn to conform to tradition.
It has a bell
Being a cat with a bell is proof that it protects the house.
