Introduction
February 22 is not just another day on the calendar; it’s Cat Day, a day to celebrate our feline friends! To honor this special occasion, Ginbis Co., Ltd. has introduced an exciting new product: the Mini Tabekko Animal Cafe Nyate Flavor. This delightful treat will be available in convenience stores nationwide starting February 9, 2026.
The Mini Tabekko Animal Cafe Nyate Flavor
This new snack features a whimsical design where cats take center stage, while other animals play the role of café staff. The clever twist on the name, "Cafe Nyate" (instead of "Cafe Latte"), adds a playful nod to the sound of cats meowing, incorporating a delightful feline element throughout the packaging.
When you open the package, you are immediately greeted by the sweet aroma reminiscent of a café latte. The flavor combines the gentle bitterness of coffee with the creaminess of milk and the rich aroma of biscuits, offering a perfect balance that can be enjoyed by both children and adults alike. The mini size of these biscuits makes them easy to pop into your mouth, allowing for a convenient and enjoyable snacking experience anytime, anywhere.
Why Cat Day?
Cat Day was established in Japan in 1987 by the Pet Food Industry Association in collaboration with the Cat Day Establishment Committee. The date, 2/22, reflects the sounds of cats’ meowing: “Nyan (2) Nyan (2) Nyan (2).” It's a day to show appreciation for the joy that living with cats brings into our lives.
