[[File:Neko Wikipe-tan.png|right|thumb|A common catgirl]]<br />
A '''catgirl''', also known as '''Nekomusume''' ('''猫娘''' "cat daughter") or '''Nekomimi''', '''猫耳''' ("cat ears") in the original Japanese, is (normally) a [[female]] [[Human|human/humanoid]] with such traits as [[cat]] [[ears]], [[tail]], whiskers and/or other feline characteristics. <br />
<br />
Catgirls are common characters in Japanese [[anime]], [[manga]], and [[video game]]s media. They are often misnamed as '''Neko girls'''.<ref>[http://images.google.com/images?client=safari&rls=en-us&q=neko+girl&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&um=1&sa=N&tab=wi Google image results for '''Neko girls''']</ref><br />
<br />
Less common but occasionally seen is the '''catboy''', usually found in [[W:yaoi|yaoi]] or [[W:Shotacon|Shotacon]], who also falls into the '''nekomimi''' category.<br />
