Another faery creature you might like from my Ravenstone series is something called a shadow-cat (felis occultus). They look like normal house cats usually, which makes sense since they evolved from house cats that fell into the faery realm known as Tirffiniol. (Cait Sidhe did the same thing, but Cait Sidhe are a much older species, evolved from the wild cats that house cats evolved from.) What sets shadow-cats apart from house cats is that they can grin like a Cheshire cat, can become invisible, can change the color of their fur and eyes and other body parts, and they can shadow-walk (magical teleportation via shadows). They're also even more intelligent than house cats, and tend to be mischievous. Oh, and they can project their thoughts telepathically.
So yeah, basically a Cheshire cat with the serial numbers filed off, and a few slight alterations.
