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.
