While downloading some decks into my Orphalese Tarot program yesterday, I typed in "cats" and stumbled upon a deck I'd never seen before (it's actually a playing card deck--"Italian Cats Playing Cards" by Evelyne Nicod). I fell in love with the cards, and ordered a set to use for reading, as I have wanted to learn to read with a regular deck of playing cards for a long time, but couldn't find a deck that really made me want to use it for this purpose. So in a way, it IS an oracle--at least for my purposes
It's actually a set of two decks in a nice decorative box--which is nice because I thought it would be fun to make a double deck for duplicate cards--and for $16 I couldn't resist Just thought I'd share these cute dressed-up kitties in case anyone else was interested in reading playing cards...or just having them for games. Here's a website with a few pictures:

They're actually kind of tough to find on the net, but I found and ordered a set from Newt's Cards (you can see the box here too):

Enjoy
P.S. If anyone's curious, here's the site I've been viewing to learn how to read playing cards. I guess a lot of others use this method:

There's also a bunch of threads about this if you search Divination and Study Groups.
