The Sims 4 Realm of Magic brings back the ability for Witches to summon familiars. Gurus have changed up their avatars on Twitter to show off some of the familiar options coming in the game, and even gave some information on familiars as well.
There's a good variety. Crows and Owls are definitely 2 of them. 😉

For The Realm of Magic we are focusing on Spellcasters to deliver the best experience possible with them. You can have a Fairy as a familiar tho. =D

Like I mentioned, we really wanted to dive deep into customization of your Spellcaster. We didn't want any familiar, wand, or broom to be better than the next. If you want the normal looking stuff it should not be worse than the crazy looking stuff.

If you own Cats and Dogs you can designate your pets as a Familiar.

You can have as many familiars as you want bound to your Sim. You can only have 1 summoned at a time.
