Familiars

I was wandering around the site for spells to write down each day in my journal/Book of Shadows. I came across this summoning a familiar spell (it's on the homepage under the magic spells column) and I was wondering if is a familiar spiritual that you can only see or is it an actual animal?

It's a spiritual animal, not a physical one.

A Familiar is an actual animal. I have had many most have been cats for me personally.

The summon Cat familiar spell that i found on the homepage is in relation to a spiritual cat which has a telepathic bond to you and is only visible to you.
This is probably not strictly the case with familiars but for that spell it is.

For me my familiars have always come to me. I have not ever asked for one. Now I do not know if it works that way with everyone or just me

This is interesting because lately I've had something similar happen to me.

Me and an ex were feuding. I was chanting on my way to my ex house for protection and strength. When we starting arguing a black cat appeared at the door and tried to get in. This cat has never been in the area nor in the house. Not until I calmed down did the cat stop meowing at the door. But everytime I'm over there and I get bothered, the cat appears.
