I’ve always been told to shy away from the aforementioned marbles, however I have some spectacular multi-colored ones and especially the ribbon ones, that are so beautiful. They are not worthless to me. 

IMHO..any marble that is spectacular to you is not worthless if we gaze in wonder at the glass .the wonder is priceless...😁

I love cats.  I have a few hundred all different.  The "shy away" comes from the age.  They first started to appear in the 1960s.  If I'm eBay surfing or antique store hunting for older marbles, I won't pay as much or may pass on a lot heavy on vaned cats.  There probably won't be many oldies in the lot.  On the other hand, you can sometimes get a gre at bargain if the pictures of the lot show lots of cats.  Here is one of my favorites with a big trapped air bubble.
