This includes the sale of products marketed towards cat owners, the use of cat imagery to sell products, and the use of living cats to attract customers and tourists. While cats have always enjoyed popularity in Japanese culture, being seen as kawaii (cute) and associated with good health, their popularity and economic impact increased significantly in the early 21st century. The term nekonomics was created around 2015, a pun on Japan's Abenomics economic policy.[1]
