Cat Day Fair: Celebrate Feline Friends with Literature

Starting February 2, 2026, the Kotonoha Bunko, a cherished literary label from Micromagazine Co., will host its much-anticipated "Cat Day Paw Print Fair" across selected bookstores. This delightful event aligns beautifully with Japan's Cat Day on February 22, making it the fourth consecutive year the fair is celebrated.

A Theme of Paw Prints

The event's theme, "Paw Print," invites readers into enchanting stories featuring our feline companions. Cat lovers can look forward to heartwarming and whimsical tales sure to bring joy and comfort. For every cat-themed book purchased at participating stores, customers will receive a limited-edition paw print coaster, ideal for use as a bookmark!

Special Offer

These coasters, available in two designs, are limited in quantity and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, so be sure to get one while supplies last! The coasters are made of durable paper and can serve both as a decorative piece or a functional bookmark.
