I am finding the deck enjoyable to use and it is reading like an old favourite, I seem to look past the cats in their finery and see beautiful scenes, and the joyful cards are so full of happiness, it's the lightness and colour I think, and the 'sad' or warning type cards seem equally expressive and give off the appropriate vibes for their meanings. I am even already reading into the layers, getting intuitive insights, as much if not more than I do with my favourite decks.
This is all highly peculiar, as I still would not say I *like* the deck, it is, after all a cat deck, and I've never understood why there are so many cat decks and cat deck fans. I love cats, but I still don't get the cat deck thing. So, perhaps there is more to this. I knew I would love reading with this deck and that I would get on well with it despite my misgivings about the style. Maybe I get less distracted by it than I would by a deck I loved the pictures on.

Hey Zoe,
You've just about convinced me to get out the BBC and give it a go. I'm with you on the whole 'cat' deck thing, but I bought it anyway because folks were raving about it. I must say that teh Knight of Wands in that deck is my now-not-secret swoon (! I even have a MRP bag with him on it!) but I've never attempted to read with that deck for the very reasons you mention.
