One of the many other questions that we receive are not about Orovo detox but about having a familiar. Asking do you have to have a cat or a familiar at all.

Actually the answer is no to both. There are many that have no familiars at all for one reason or the other. Not having a familiar is something that is a personal choice. And that choice may change at any time.

You do not have to have a cat either. That is just the stereo typical of all familiars that has been associated with the path for hundreds of years. Frogs is another familiar that has been made to be thought of as well. ")

Out of our cats I would say that only one is magically inclined. Choosing only to come up to where I do any workings when I am in the middle of one. Sitting and watching. Then after finished she leaves as quietly as she arrived. All other of the cats share no inclination at joining a magical circle at all.

Years ago I had a dog that was perfect. But after she passed I have not ever had a replacement of that caliber. My dog, Star has no magical qualities other than to beg or walk all over the tarot cards that I have out. She just does not care to join. As a familiar she is not one at all.

If it is your time to have a familiar you will know it. The familiar will come to you out of no where. Whether it is a cat, a rat or even a rabbit.

A familiar is a familiar
