Neko 

When neko ears appear in anime is a way of expressing cuteness and cat like actions which are usually mischievous and stuff, so to express that in anime they put cat ears on the characters.

Its also a popular fashion choice in japan, and in the western culture people who wear them wear them as a way of

expressing their cat like personalities. People who wear cat ears will often say "nya" and make their hands into fists.

Being a neko is not a furry fetish, instead it is more of an extension of someones personality.

"That girl wears cat ears every day, is she some kinda furry?"
"No, she is just a neko, shes very cute"
"they really do suit her"

nekojin 

Half human, half cat creatures, usually female, which are often seen in anime and manga. Synonymous with catgirl, they are adored and fetishized by otaku and commonly seen in hentai.

From the japanese 'neko' meaning cat, and 'jin' meaning person/nationality/race.

They usually have a human body with cat ears and a cat tail and cat eyes with slits for pupils, and sometimes wear paw shaped mittens.

Nekojin with greater feline anthropomorphic characteristics such as fur covering the body and paws for hands and feet cross into the furry genre. Nekojin sometimes make furry fans out of anime fans or anime fans out of furry fans.
