Are there 2 different editions?

http://www.bookdepository.com/search...&search=search

The search results at the bottom of the page show different ISBNs, different prices, and different release dates.

I noticed that the first one is listed as "mixed media." I'm wondering if this is a kit with a deck and book and the other is cards alone. Does anybody know?

Nevermind, I found this thread and I guess if catdoc isn't worried then neither am I.
I guess it just kinda felt like her idea first sort of thing....


I feel silly now.
I'll be in the corner if anyone needs me
I am getting both as well, but if it makes you feel any better, I noticed that too, Well, the world has enough room for two natural cat decks. At least on my shelf.

I don't see it as at all like the Cat's Eye. And it has been in the works for ages, too. I shall of course get both

Whose idea was it first?

On Tarot garden I can find (apart from Pagan Cats) 6 full cat decks, 10 majors only cat decks and 2 cat oracles.

The earliest I remember is Tarot of the Cat People from the 80's. but there might have been one before that.
I'm no tarot historian.

Gregory? Do you have them all?

I THINK the earliest I OWN is indeed the Cat People (Kuykendall/USG - 1985). I suspect I own them all; there is a list of all we here know of in the Mandrake Exchange....

They look very different to me, different style and intention.

What I still want to know is why there isn't a Horse Tarot. Well, I haven't found one.

Cats will have to do ...

Love them both!


I lobbied for Cat's Eye! Love it. Didn't think I would even want Pagan Cats from the scans I saw (admittedly very few, but that's all there was). Then seeing the new AT scans and review, decided I liked it very much. Doesn't change my opinion of Cat's Eye and I don't see them as being that much alike at all, except they both have cats that aren't wearing clothes! I think they are both very unique and wonderful decks in their own way. I think the world has plenty of room for both.

Someone here once started a My Little Pony deck.....

I have ferrets, rabbits, chickens, rats, dogs - to name but some. And there are those cows on the way....
