Since our cattery started people have expressed interest in getting merch with our logo on it. Well, we have now made it a reality. You can find our ghost-cat logo as well as some other fun designs available for purchase in our Purranormal Spreadshop at the link below, which can also be found on our website. We plan to introduce some more designs soon so keep an eye out for those!

Amalurra Lilith of Purranormal has the makings of a future show cat! She is so sweet, and already working on her pole game.

01/19/2025

The Wicked litter is 3 weeks old today! Their little personalities are starting to come out more. Most notably that Nessa is the loud one. They are all getting more snuggly and have become quite mobile.

Galinda is still needing some supplementing but she is as feisty as ever and is also starting to gain on her own via nursing which is letting us sleep through the night! Thanks to everyone who was checked in about her and sent well wishes. We are starting to think she's going to look a lot like her mama Siren when she gets bigger.

Thank you Andy for bringing us this beautiful, sweet platinum girl Amalurra Lilith of Purranormal up from Minnesota in the middle of winter. She will be such a fantastic addition to our breeding program and we feel so lucky that you and Marsha trusted us with her. We can't wait for her first show next month in Kingston.

Happy Sixth Birthday to Roswell the Singapura, the cat that started us on this whole pedigree cat journey! We love this little guy so much.

The Wicked litter is now 2 weeks old! Everyone's eyes are open now, though they can't focus yet so it causes some funny faces. They are also all so loud. Unsurprising since both Siren and Renfield love the sound of their own voices.

Little Galinda is fighting hard but still needing a lot of support from us, being tube fed every 3 hours. This is the part of breeding that can be exhausting, but it is also very rewarding.

Cat owners, please read this post to help protect your precious pets. This is especially true if you feed your cat any raw food or treats (frozen or freeze dried), or if you allow your cat outside where they may interact with birds, wildlife, or their waste products. There is also evidence that mice can also act as a vector of the avian flu, so if your cats have exposure to wild mice in your home consider alternate pest control. If your cat is currently eating a raw diet and cannot be switched to something else, we recommend contacting the producer to determine if this food and the bones it contains is ground in such a way that would allow it to be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure that it is safe for ingestion.

What is H5N1?
H5N1, commonly known as avian influenza A or bird flu, is a highly pathogenic strain of influenza virus that primarily affects birds, but cases have recently been reported in wildlife, cattle, cats, and humans.

What do we know about the latest outbreak?
Recently H5N1 influenza cases have been reported in cats that have consumed contaminated commercial raw food diets, unpasteurized milk, or had contact with wild birds and cattle.

Precautions:
Consider discontinuing your pet’s raw diet. Even if their raw food is human grade, frozen, or freeze dried, this does not prevent the potential spread of pathogenic bacteria, parasites, or H5N1 that may be present in the food. Consider cooking your pet’s raw food and/or consulting your veterinarian about diet change.
Limit your pet’s access to wild birds that may be carrying the virus and avoid giving them raw milk.

What are the symptoms to watch out for in our pets?
Clinical signs in pets may include the following:
• Loss of appetite
• Lethargy
• Fever
• Neurologic signs (ataxia, circling, tremors, seizures, sudden blindness)
• Copious oculonasal discharge
• Difficulty breathing
We recommend seeking veterinary care if your pet shows any of these signs. If they are having any life-threatening symptoms (neurologic signs, seizures, difficulty breathing, or collapse) seek veterinary care immediately.

Can this cause illness in humans?
Yes, H5N1 can cause illness in humans. Current human infections have been linked to contact with infected cattle and wild birds. There is no current evidence of human to human transmission.

What is being done?
The CDC, FDA and USDA are closely monitoring cases as they develop. One voluntary product recall has been issued for contaminated raw food diets for cats & dogs. We are continuing to monitor this emerging virus.

We have recently overhauled our cattery website to include much more information about us, our cats, and what you can expect if you get a kitten from us. We would love for you to check it out at the link below or in our bio!

Happy first birthday to the boys of Purranormal's first official litter, the What We Do In the Shadows litter, and a throwback to their litter announcement pictures.

Purranormal Freddy Kougar - Freddy lives in Windsor with his loving mom Terin and has a very doting grandma. He loves to travel, dress up, and play fetch and is a great breed ambassador at shows and out in public.

Purranormal Anakin of Darkside - Anakin lives in Washington DC with a pair of amazing breeders and is a soon to be stud. As new breeders we feel blessed that our bloodlines are helping continue this amazing breed and we can't wait to see what he produces.

Purranormal Shadow-of-the-Night - Shadow lives with mom Jill in Fredricton. Shadow is an energetic boy who loves his mom but will happily share her lap for his new baby sister. He also has had a fantastic show career so far!

Purranormal Get Back H***y Cat - Bernie lives in Keswick with his mom Shelley. He was meant to be her husband Bill's cat but imprinted on Shelley, similar to the litters mom Siren with their son Hayden. Bernie has become an honorary Devon Rex in Shelley's cattery MercuryDRX and is her forever show boy. His toy drive is second to none and he's never had a bad day - he just loves life!

These handsome boys are all so loved and we are so happy they have helped us to expand our Bomb Squad family

Introducing our Wicked litter! These Bombabies were born December 29, 2024. Siren has been doing a wonderful job just as expected and they are all growing. But 6 babies is a lot and a couple of them were very tiny (50 grams). Galinda is still a bit precarious so we are guarded but hopeful that she will start to thrive soon. Elphaba on the other hand is 30 grams bigger than her closest sibling - our little chonk.

4 girls (Morrible, Elphaba, Nessarose, Galinda) and 2 boys (Boq, Fiyero), all Bombay and will be reserved by waitlist members or kept in our cattery. As a reminder, kitten offers will not be going out until these babies are 8 weeks and have been seen by the vet. If you would like to join our waitlist please complete the prospective owner questionnaire on our website. If you have questions you are always free to email or direct message us.

After dealing with her miscarriage a few months ago we are thrilled to announce that Siren delivered a litter of healthy Bombay kittens early this morning - Renfield's first babies he has sired. We are so thrilled. Please stay tuned for updates about them in the coming days/weeks.

12/27/2024

Hello Waitlist members! We have sent out our semi-annual check in emails today and are awaiting your responses! Please double check your spam folders as some people have reported our emails being filtered out as spam. If you believe you are on our waitlist but didn't receive an email please reach out ASAP as we will be deleting anyone we don't hear from within 2 weeks so we can plan for our upcoming litters appropriately.

Seasedge Siren of Purranormal just had some turkey from our turkey dinner. As you can see she is eating for more than just herself - a whole litter worth! Stay tuned in the new year for baby news. Happy holidays.

We tried to take nice pictures of each girl, but Lydia Deetz decided to photobomb Yaga's picture. Too funny.

12/02/2024

We had a wonderful time in Laval this Sunday, showing off Yaga and Lydia Deetz in CCA for the first time and chatting with lots of spectators including a couple we met at the Montreal TICA show last month who went on to join our waitlist.

Plus Lydia won second best kitten in show! We are so proud of both these beautiful girls.

Bonus photo featuring Ashley of Ashvale Maine C***s and one of her not even 4 month old Maine C***s who is already bigger than 5 month old Lydia (and most of our adult cats too).
