Reviews for Catspaws
Wonderful ! Oh, and I'm off reading Invictus...♥
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Glad you're enjoying it. I saw your review of Invictus earlier today also.
Sidhe and Fae, riddles and confessions...can it get much better? Love it!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
If you like riddles, try Invictus. Glad you're enjoying my story!
Hey! I'm growing very fond of you ^.^ You're writing so fascinating that I had to read the whole chapters at once! And the cliffie is really evil ^.~ I like your style of writing very much and the idea is just briliant. Although I sometimes get confused as to which pet belongs to which person, but I think that's just a minor issue. But I got something to criticize, videlicet the names of some of the teachers. Prof. Sprout's given name is Pomona and Madam Hooch's is Rolanda. Other than that, I haven't found any mistakes ^.^ Please continue with this great story! And I oh so love Crookshanks and Duster ^.^
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
I'm glad you're enjoying my story. It was a great deal of fun to write. It was only supposed to be a couple of chapters when I started on it, and then it took on a life of its own.I started writing this one long before OotP came out, and before the given names of those two instructors was known. In fact, the HP Lexicon still states that Rolanda comes from the trading card game and is not necessarily canon. If you haven't read Invictus, you might want to give it a try. No scheming Familiars, but some other fun things.
Oh my, Evil Cliffie! What an intriguing plot twist with the Sidhes' spell on them -- how soon will they 'fess up? I look forward to reading more.
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
I do love my cliffies. If "real life" permits, I'll be uploading the next chapter tonight. Glad you're enjoying the story!
What a totally cool idea! I love the personalities of the familiars. They're all so unique. Wonderful beginning. I'm off to continue... =)
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Enjoy! I'll be uploading another chapter tonight, if real life permits.
AHHHHHHHHH you fools just say that you love each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
By the way your mean... why did you stop it there... I'm going to cry now, and keep crying until you update...lol
It is such a fantastic story I just cant get enough!

Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
My beta-reader says that's the worst cliffie I've ever written. I'll update tonight if work permits.
Oh phew, I almost thought they were done for! I'm so glad you update so quickly, as reading this has become a huge highlight of my day :)
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying my story. I'll upload chapter 12 tonight if "real life" permits.
Well these Sidhe are certainly not very nice, where they the ons lurking in the shadows in the last chapter...
Harry is back, Why did you do that, i don't like him...lol sorry im sulking...;)
_love this story and can not not not wait for the next chapter!!!
-KarlaMarie
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Oh Harry isn't that bad... you'll eventually find out what happened to him. And the Sidhe are not nice at all... And I just uploaded Chapter Eleven! Now go read and review! It's reviews that keep me writing!
Plaid Pooka had me rolling! Please update soon, this is an awful Cliffy!!!!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Pook is a good friend of mine, so I had to do that. And the next chapter has an even worse cliff-hanger.
Oh, no! They're caught! And the Sidhe doesn't seem very friendly towards humans. Great chapter!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
And now things begin to get interesting for our intrepid heroes. I have a habit of ending chapters on cliff-hangers.
Ack! I can't stand it! Please update again ASAP!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
I'll have the next chapter up either tonight or tomorrow.
A Plaid Pooka! Ha!....I read too much fan fiction.......But anyway, love it. Can't wait to read more!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Yes, that's a nod to one of my best e-friends and fellow authors. Glad you're enjoying the story.
I've been meaning to read this story for a long, long time. I've heard a lot of people talk about how great it was, and how upset they were over the lack of updates. I found the link in PlaidPooka's website.I love how things are told from the Familiar's perspective as well. It's quie a twist; I love how they think of things - "producing offspring, completing a ritual, etc." I do like Duster a lot. I'm not normally a cat fan. I find I'm more fond of dogs, but Duster and Crookshanks as a team sounds adorable. The other pairs are cute too, of course. This is a great story, and I hope that you eventually finish. Perhaps even soon? And then maybe you can finish those other stories, as well. 
Please update soon!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Actually it's more lack of time to upload. There's 13 chapters done, and 14 is about 1/3 complete. And you're right - I should update more frequently.
Good kitty, stopped Sev exploding just in time!
Sneaky ,conniving familiars!!!!I can almost see Fawkes with a twinkle in its eye just like Dumbledore! Thank Merlin our familiars....er....pets are not as tenacious as them or we'd be in big trouble!Very enjoyable .Keep it coming!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Chapter Three is now uploaded for your reading pleasure. Enjoy!
Wow, this is turning put really really good, please keep updating, I'm really enjoying it. :p. *hugs* wow I love familiars... *strokes her own cat* they rock. And you can just imagine what the familiars will do.. Oh goody I can't wait!!!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Chapter 3 is now uploaded for your reading pleasure. I'd love to know what you think of it.
Ah, Severus thinks he's being so evil, and already he begins to cooperate with the Familiars. I will forward to your next update
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
Chapter 3 is now uploaded for your reading pleasure. I look forward to your comments.
This is completely and utterly delightful. I'm sure our lives would be easier if we just let the cats run things. Excellent beginning!
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)
*grin*

Really unique idea! I am looking forward to seeing how the familiars manage their "pets".
Response from Doomspark (Author of Catspaws)

Lovely start :) I really enjoy the cat centric fic when done right. Thank you for writing and I look forward to more.

I sm so happy you finished this story. I wish there were alerts on this site so you know when a story is updated! I really enjoyed this story and look forward to more stories from you! The familiars matchmaking everyone was fun and what I liked about this story. The pets seemed to know best even though they were wrong at times.
Author's Response: I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you so much for giving us a wonderful story.
Author's Response: You're very welcome. Should I assume you want me to finish Varlet now?
Sampdoria's response: Oh yes. I would love for the Varlet to be completed:-))
