No other animal has managed to get itself tangled up in as much legend,
myth, symbolism, religion, history, and human affairs as the cat. From
the time it first appeared upon the scene some four thousand years ago,
it has played its part in almost every age . . . . Black magic, white
magic, good luck and bad, a hundred superstitions covering every aspect
of human life and condition, are ascribed to the cat. . . . Here is a
compendium to attract mere mortals . . . there is a magic about it
overall, and what we would dearly love to be is magicians with
supernatural powers. The cat world seem to have retained some of these
occult faculties. Let us therefore be friends to them and friends to
their friends.
~ Paul Gallico, Honorable Cat

Not sure about a couple words, but it seems to pretty much fit .... except "compendium" as there was no M at the end, but maybe you missed that? Or I've got the wrong word ....
