Kabuki will present the player with the crafting recipe for a Lucky Cat when you reach a level fifteen friendship. Outside of this, there isn’t any way to receive the recipe before inviting Kabuki to your campsite. However, when you receive the recipe, crafting a lucky cat will cost you 10’010 Bells and take a whopping thirteen hours. But if you’ve already gone through the effort of trekking through Kabuki’s map, then you might as well sit through the time! In terms of material, a Lucky Cat costs 150 steel, four harmonious essences, and two sparkle stones. It’s a relatively expensive project, but the joy it brings Kabuki is definitely worth it.
