The "ฅ(=・ᆽ・ฅ=)" emote, also known as the "Chinese Neko" emote, is a popular cat face emoticon used in online communication. It originated from Japanese manga and anime culture and is often used to express cuteness, happiness, or excitement. The emote consists of a cat face with wide eyes, a small nose, and a mouth that appears to be smiling or purring. The characters "ฅ", "=", "ᆽ", and "ฅ" represent the cat's ears, eyes, nose, and paws respectively.
