What it does
When Black Cat enters, look at the top nine cards of target opponent's library, exile two of them face down, then put the rest on the bottom of their library in a random order. You may play the exiled cards for as long as they remain exiled. Mana of any type can be spent to cast spells this way.
Rulings
2 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

If there are fewer than nine cards left in the opponent's library as the ability resolves, you look at all of the remaining cards.
