About Us
Our Story
Back in the early 2000's I encountered an enchanting male Devon, named Humbug, at a veterinary clinic I worked at. He was everything I wanted in a cat and more. To say he stole my heart would be an understatement and he certainly left an imprint. Just 19 years old at the time, there was no way I could afford or care for a pedigreed cat, but I promised myself then, that once I had a house, and the time to care for a cat, that I would get a chance to be owned by one of these little imps. Humbugs breeder is no longer in the Devon community but graciously sent me some pictures so that I could share him with you all. Without him and our chance encounters, PureX wouldn't exist.
Fast forward to 2011 and the search was on. I found myself an amazing breeder and took home my new family member. Over these last few years, I have forged relationships with others in the cat fancy, both exhibitors and breeders alike. And I'm proud to call many of them -friends-. I cannot thank them all enough for their friendship, extensive knowledge, and patience while on this learning journey.
Now, in 2025, more than 20 years after meeting the Devon Rex, 13 years since our first Devon Rex, more than 10 years after our first show and first litter in our house, we remain committed to the preservation of our treasured breed. That includes health, type and of course the all important temperament that sets Devons apart.

We are registered with all four major associations, CFA, TICA CCA and ACFA. But we typically only show in CFA and ACFA due to geographic location. Each association tallies their points and titles a little differently. So there are different awards and terms for each. Ex: A GC title in TICA is not equivalent to a GC title in CFA.
**We do not include our "colour" awards in any association***
Devons as a breed, are allowed in all colours. Which means that frequently - any given colour or pattern combo can be (and often is) the only cat of that colour/pattern in the breed that show season. In Devons this means unfortunately those awards don't mean much as a result (a certificate to congratulate you for coming first in a class only one cat was in, doesn't hold a ton of water). In immensely popular breeds like Persians and Himalayans, it's another story. For this reason we choose to post only the awards that are breed or showing class related.
