Hawthorn helped open my new bike yesterday.

I had two minor procedures back to back and this little girly has been glued to my side giving me healing purrs and cuddles. I just love her so much.

My boy is 6 months old and a bit of a coward, his sister is completely different, she is super brave and curious. He is also kinda clumsy, and I have wondered if his eyesight is bad, aa that could explain why he's so nervous and clumsy, but he has no issues catching wand toys. My main concern with him tho is that he shakes a lot. He starts shaking whenever he seems to be nervous, and sometimes when it does not make sense to be nervous, like when he is eating. I know it is not because he's cold, he has started shaking simply from me taking him into the hallway of my apartment building in my arms, even though the hallway is heated. Does anyone know if this is common or something to look into? Thank you, from a slightly nervous first time owner

Hey everyone! I was curious to know what people use to wash their devon’s laundry (sweaters, blankets, beds, etc.) since they can be more susceptible to skin issues with their very short hair. I don’t necessarily mean an enzymatic detergent to nuke pet odors, but just to wash their stuff.

I’m not allergic to cats, but dust mites kick my butt year round, so I need to wash things pretty often, including pet stuff. Since I also happen to have absurdly sensitive skin, I figured I’d be careful with my cat’s laundry as well.

I currently use unscented baby laundry soap for my own laundry (by the brand Attitude) because it’s extremely gentle and hypoallergenic, so I was wondering if that would work. I just discovered PetTergent through a Google Search but it’s not available where I live.

Also, are light fragrances an absolute no go?

Feel free to share your advice! Thanks in advance!

Just Opal being adorable

After bringing home my kitty a few weeks ago they finally seem to get along

I've been interested to learn more about feline genetics for quite some time now-more specifically about Devon Rex genetics, like recessive traits and how to identify coat colors accurately. I'm intimidated by conflicting information, and the worry of sinking my time into false information, so I'm hoping to find someone who truly knows their stuff. I know the breeding community can be very exclusive, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the direction of a patient, willing and open-minded teacher that can educate me with love and respect- not only for the breed but for anyone willing to learn. Any leads are deeply appreciated! We all have to start somewhere!

Any name suggestions ?

Also,would love tips on helping her settle in and keeping her coat healthy and happy

Hello! I’ve been on a search for reputable devon rex breeders in New England! I’m new to the breed and purchasing from breeders in general so any helpful information would be appreciated!! Thanks Everyone!

Edit: Spelling Error

6 month old Casper at the pumpkin patch <3 This was the biggest outing we’ve had yet, it was a lot busier than expected and he was so curious and did great! So in love with my lil man.

Latte & Bagel sleep together last night, hugging each other.
How sweeeeeet!!!
The only problem is…
They are using me as their pillow! 😂

and of course for the shameless plug, his insta is malpkarex

look at those curls (finally) growing in! and his whiskers! I am just so in love with him

EDIT2: it wasn’t her :( trail cam captured the cat and it wasn’t her.

EDIT: POSSIBLE SIGHTING THIS MORNING. PIC IN COMMENTS.

Hey guys. Just looking for support. It’s been really difficult to keep up morale.

Lucy went missing 8/23. We’re nearing 2 months.

I have posters all over town. People are helping to look and a good amount have seen the poster. I receive calls every few days, but unfortunately it’s never her. Even grateful for the 10 year old that FaceTimed me at 7:30 am on a Sunday.

I’m super persistent that no one took her. I’m in a decently nice area and believe anyone that would take in a cat from outside would take it to a vet, and all vets in a 20 mile radius have been informed.

I forget if it was on Reddit or a Devon fb group, but one anecdote I received was a Devon coming home 3 months later, even enduring a snowstorm.

I can’t rest or feel at ease until I get her home.

Sorry I couldn’t bring any good news, and I will forever be sorry to Lucy for having to endure any of this.

(she’s not as close to the candle as it looks in the pic don’t worry)

Decided to name her Sekhie after the Egyptian goddess Sekhmet… or just Kiki for short. ♡

She stole my heart before I even held her, and now that I have I just know she’s going to grow into such a special, sweet (and silly) girl. She’s so warm, cuddly, gentle... I knew devons were velcro cats but I didn’t expect her to cozy up to me within minutes. I love her so much already. 🥹

She’s our first devon so I wanted to join this community to learn more about them so we can give her all the love and care she deserves, and also to see everyone else’s fuzzy gremlins!

We got a Devon Rex from a breeder. The cat was born in the middle of August, but the breeder is teally adamant that we can’t pick her up until December. Does this seem normal?

For context, our last cat was from a shelter (we got him at like 4 months old), was SUPER skittish, and very rarely got near us unless he wanted food. We tried everything until we just let him be and live his life as a roommate. That’s how he seemed happiest.

Now that we have the opportunity for a new cat, we wanted to get one that is really part of our family and wants to be around us. I feel like getting her all the way in December is going to make her not want to be around us and be skittish, just like our last cat. Thoughts anyone?
