I have always loved cats, and felt the magical power they possess. This fantastic book opened up worlds of knowledge concerning cats, from their history, persecution, breeds, magic, and even a chapter of cat "tails", if you know what I mean. I sped through it in two days. It has adorable pictures of cats on almost every page, and includes photos of domestic and wild cats, of every type you can imagine. Miss Conway really knows her stuff! This book is seething with info and shaped into a fun, easy reading style. It brings out a happy mood in me. Yet another splendid work of literature by DJ Conway, a Mistress of Magick!

I'm so glad someone finally wrote this book! It's all here -- history, myth, spells your kitty can help you perform, info about the different breeds, touching stories by cat "parents" whose kitties showed psychic abilities, interesting scientific facts about cat behaviour, photographs of exotic cats, folktales, cat deities, etc. Only one thing I didn't like. Was it really ncessary to tell us about cat persecutions and actually show us a picture, albeit an old one from some old horrible time, but, you know, to show us? The truth is harsh and I didn't really want to see a chapter on that in a book I love so much. But, that was only one chapter and the rest of the book is truly loveable. Thank you, DJ Conway, for writing about our furry little bundles of love :)

One day, I won an award for my Creative Writing class since I received the highest mark, and this award was a gift certificate to buy a book at the local bookshop. Before I received the award, I found out about the Mysterious Magickal Cat, and being the world's truest and most loyalist cat lover (trust me, no one can match me *laughs*) as well as someone fascinated with magick, I did not know Cat Magick existed until I picked up a copy of D.J.'s book. My knowledge of cats and Magick have expanded, thanks to Mrs. Conway, and I would definitely want to meet her! I am presently looking for more Cat Magick spells. I am very pleased with the book, the money sure is worth it, and it is a fascinating book to read!! Where else can I find a book that is exclusively on the most beautiful, most powerful, most WONDERFUL pet on the face of this universe, the cat with mythology attached to it, along with the Ancient Egyptian magick!!!!!!

Excellent job, Mrs. Conway, and I encourage you to continue!

I have a Herd of little Fur Babies of my own and this gave me insite into the past and present lore of the cat. I love the every part of this book. It even gives spells using cat parts, but only the good kind such as shed wiskers and claws. A must for any mystical person with a magickal cat.

I was extremely excited to see that this book was coming out, and after reading it I can say that I did indeed enjoy it, except for a few minor things. The format made it difficult to focus from one paragraph to the next, mostly due to the inclusion of photographs on the page that offset the print to one side or the other (although I'm not complaining about the graphics, they were beautiful.) Also, I felt sort of let down that she included the handful of spells she did in the book, when I had thought perhaps the list would be more extensive. This was most likely in order to give you an idea of what to do on your own with your ~own~ pet, as books such as this are often more prompts to create your own magickal workings and not a to-the-letter guidebook on the subject. However, I'm not terribly disappointed, as she was relatively thorough in the simple spells she chose to include. The book covers every aspect of the cat you could possibly imagine from body language to folklore to anatomy. If you love cats, and even if you're a non-wiccan/pagan, it's a wonderful book to read just because of the everyday info you can learn about your favorite feline friends.

I love cats and I loved reading this book. This book contained numorous cat tales that even surprised. I have grown up with cats all of my life. I recomend this book to all.

That's all I can say! I truly loved every moment of reading this book, and at the time I didn't even have a cat! (I have one now...)

Interesting and educational with a touch of the old ways and the new. You don't have to be a "believer" to enjoy it. It gave me an interesting new perspective to view my furry friends from.

D.J. Conway has done an EXCELLENT job with this book. There is everything from ancient history on felines, to rituals and spells that you can include your kitty in. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
