Majors-only cat themed tarot, with accompanying book by multimedium artist and filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky. The illustrations are very cartoonish in style (not necessarily a bad thing; it depends on your tastes). Jodorowsky's book is based on the premise that his cat Kazan (which he co-credits as a creator) nudged the author toward a larger understanding of tarot's lessons, which he in turn reinterpreted back to the cat. As described in the forward, the concept is not entirely unlike Jeannette's 2007 satirical cats-invented-tarot article written for Timeless Spirit Magazine (reprinted in our site blog here in 2018). The text is written from a cat's eye view of the cards.
