<sup><sup>1</sup> Apply the celestial template to any animal from the standard familiar list. Unlike other celestial familiars, a celestial animal grants its master the standard benefit for having an animal familiar of that type.</sup>
The celestial familiar is magically linked to its master like a normal familiar. The familiar uses the basic statistics for a creature of its kind, as given in the _Monster Manual_ or this volume, except as noted below.
_Hit Dice:_ For effects related to Hit Dice, use the master's level or the familiar's normal total, whichever is higher.
_Hit Points:_ One-half the master's total or the familiar's normal total, whichever is higher.
_Attacks:_ Use the master's base attack bonus or the familiar's, whichever is better.
_Saving Throws:_ Use the master's base save bonuses if they are better than the familiar's.
_Familiar Special Abilities:_ Determine additional abilities as you would for a normal familiar. With the exception of celestial animals, celestial familiars do not grant their masters any of the benefits that appear in that sidebar.
