Thoughtful Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 l do not want to trim the borders off my original as l too like the little paw prints. So this will be a good compromise, still your fault GD :biggrin:
GreatDane Posted February 22, 2019 Author Posted February 22, 2019 I'll own that, Thoughtful :biggrin: LITTLE FANG, do you think the new ones are borderless? Did you see them? I get some like the borders, but my old eyes really like bigger images in borderless, so that would be a plus for me. BUT when did that happen? I saw nothing a borderless was an option, but in Barnes and Noble I see something that says OTHER FORMAT when looking at the cards. Llewellyn is showing on sale as is Amazon so score.
Little Fang Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I don't have the new one, but that picture is pretty convincing that it is, WOW. I may just have to snag that one too. When my first deck was hard, this was the deck that taught me to read!
GreatDane Posted February 22, 2019 Author Posted February 22, 2019 this thread is becoming even more enabling for me than I thought it would, Little Fang! ;D I am FEELIN the FELINES!
Little Fang Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 Adding that I'm reading reviews for this one, it was added Feb 8th so it's brand new! It got a bad review because of the lack of borders and the majors only have a numerical label. So beginners, beware! :)
GreatDane Posted February 22, 2019 Author Posted February 22, 2019 OH THANKS FOR THAT, LITTLE FANG. GOOD TO KNOW.
Swift Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 The Magic Neko Deck is a playing card and oracle deck, so not a tarot deck at all, but still my all time favourite cat deck. It works beautifully as an oracle deck and it is evident that Stasia Burrington who designed it, and the Sasuraibito tarot, has spent a lot of time with cats.

Jewel Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I actually like cat decks, and I noted the Baroque Bohemian Cats (MoonGypsy[/member] I too love the 1st edition with the flowery borders), but another one I adore is a Majors only deck called the Tarot for Cats, it has the best Tower card ever with the cat running away from the vacuum cleaner :biggrin: I wonder what that deck would have been like with minors. It is by far my favorite only Majors Only deck :biggrin:

GreatDane Posted February 22, 2019 Author Posted February 22, 2019 Jewel, I have it in with my books in it's box! I don't count it in my decks, as I don't read with it, but I agree, how grand it would have been with minors (and a tad smaller)! LOVE the art. Would be great poster size for the wall.
Little Fang Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I jumped in and got borderless pagan cats. I'll do a video if y'all want!
GreatDane Posted February 22, 2019 Author Posted February 22, 2019 X/ X/ I WANT!!! There is no youtube vid I have seen that shows the NEW version.

Same artist who did the fabulous Halloween Tarot! i used to have The Tarot for Cats! It is OOP...
sandrang123 Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 Ohhhh!!!!! says Lover of All Cats, Sandy. I love TAROT OF THE CAT PEOPLE most. I also like, quite a lot, MEDIEVAL CAT TAROT, which is sometimes cheeky. I will also say that even though it doesn't bill itself as a cat deck, EVERYDAY WITCH has a cat in just about every card, short of maybe one that has a dog thrown in for good measure...
Saturn Celeste Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I jumped in and got borderless pagan cats. I'll do a video if y'all want! Oh yes! I didn't know they had a borderless edition! How wonderful, something for my far off wish list!

moonglow Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I jumped in and got borderless pagan cats. I'll do a video if y'all want! Oh yes! I didn't know they had a borderless edition! How wonderful, something for my far off wish list! The regular sized deck is only available borderless now. I ordered the deck from Amazon.ca last July, not knowing about the switch. It's been a bit tricky for us newbies, without the titles. We didn't find the icons chosen for the courts ideal, but I think I've got them now, at least. I had been thinking of trying to do a flip-through video, but I don't even have a YouTube channel at the moment, so maybe I should leave it to you then Little Fang. I almost ordered the mini deck when it was under $10 on Amazon.ca, hoping it still had titles, but I couldn't get a good enough answer out of Lo Scarabeo to want to try it. My husband figured the cards would be too small for him to read anyway. So far our only cat deck, but there could certainly be more in the future. :P
GreatDane Posted February 23, 2019 Author Posted February 23, 2019 THANKS for the pix, MOONGLOW! And for your thoughts re titles. (AND I LOVE your avatar X/) I can see the trade off. If I was new to tarot, I can see the issue. But with my Crone eyesight, I love how the images pop borderless! It's the one deck on my wish list for 2019...at the moment...but the year is young.
moonglow Posted February 23, 2019 Posted February 23, 2019 THANKS for the pix, MOONGLOW! And for your thoughts re titles. (AND I LOVE your avatar X/) I can see the trade off. If I was new to tarot, I can see the issue. But with my Crone eyesight, I love how the images pop borderless! No problem. Adding another picture as I forgot to mention that the backs are also borderless. I think they had a pale blue border before? The borderless is great, once you get used to them, for sure! But, as someone else mentioned, the paw print borders looked like they'd be kinda cute too. I think it'd be a toss-up for me. :) (AND I LOVE your avatar X/) Thanks! I was trying to get a tarot pic to work, but ended up falling back on my current standby. :love: Yoshi! It's the one deck on my wish list for 2019...at the moment...but the year is young. Ah, indeed it is! My list keeps growing, and growing, and then I scrap it all and think I'll just stick to my Centennial RWS... That never lasts long!
GreatDane Posted February 23, 2019 Author Posted February 23, 2019 The more I see it, the more I love it! I like RWS clear images and this has that and also great pix of cats :) If it had been like this originally, I would have bought it. I am thrilled and thanks again! LOVE the borderless backs!
Little Fang Posted February 25, 2019 Posted February 25, 2019 Managd to snag an early bird for once. Watch the video for how amazing it is.
GreatDane Posted February 25, 2019 Author Posted February 25, 2019 Thanks for that Little Fang! My first thought re pastel colors are those little sugary mints ;D I like the black background. Going back to look at more images.... X/
Guest Night Shade Posted February 25, 2019 Posted February 25, 2019 These cats are adorably weird! :kitty:
Little Fang Posted February 25, 2019 Posted February 25, 2019 Sorry I just found another. I want people to STOP MAKING ME SPEND :) :lolsign:
