It will work if exposion to divine presence increased its int to beyond animal level, but it is technically same as awakening.

This doesn't really seem to be a "Rule Question".

Yeah I don't get it.

If you want to play a cat with the intelligence of a cat you can't take class levels. Then you claim that the cat of a god would have more intelligence, but still you don't want to be awakened. I don't know how you are gonna sell the increase in intelligence without the increase in the stat.

Why not play a GENIUS cat that still loves saucers full of milk and balls of string?

Just play as a Silvanshee.

Hooooo!

I agree. Silvanshee sounds like the way to go. It's an Agathion, a type of Celestial. Sounds to me like what an "ex-pet of a god" would be, some sort of cat-like outsider.

Yeah had a similar experience with A Psionic cat Pc in a campaign I was in. Sounds amusing at first but quickly becomes annoying in my experience.

That's how it goes with some of these really "quirky & novel" ideas.

Amusing, for a short time, then obnoxious, and then, you hate it.

Be sure to end when that happens. We waited way too long, and it got insanely ugly.

Oh... that just makes me sad. Twice, thrice if you count the tibbit, well, more like four times... I've had 'cat' characters in a game. Most were npcs and were there for comic relief, but everyone seemed to enjoy them. They were either psions or warlocks for mechanical purposes. I especially enjoyed the awakened cat kineticist that was the minion (leadership) of an evil druid.

And see, I'm not really seeing anything there doesn't just screamed awakened to me. The god did it. Accidentally, possibly, but the energy of a god distorts reality in ways that spellcasting attempts to emulate. Your cat has intelligence and a sense of self because of extended contact with a divine being.

I'll fourth this behind Arazyr. This fits.

And just keep ignoring the question why awaken doesn't work for you.
