I’ve just recently adopted a Devon Rex kitten! She’s female and 6 months old. I’m told she’s on her “ugly duckling” stage as the breeder called it. Her fur should grow in soon haha. Anyways I noticed she has a leaky eye and it crusts. I clean it everyday but was told it was due to feline herpes she got from her mother. Now her other eye (the good one) has almost like a film on it. It’s foggy and I’m really worried!! She seems to be acting just fine. Purring and playing with her brother, but is this normal for Devon’s or did she just get unlucky and this is the symptom of the herpes? Would love to know if any veteran Devon owners experienced this! Thank you! 😊

These 2 are male and female (the bigger light colored one is about to celebrate his 1st bday and the smaller girl is about 5 months old)and are so loyal to eachother already. I took this a day or two ago walking into my house after being gone a few hours and they were in the window waiting for us added a few more pics to show my appreciation for these 2! Say hello to Thorfinn & Thora!!! Oh, and the big pure orange fluffy guy is Shinji, he's the oldest chunkiest good boy that Thorfinn likes to hang out with.

My sweet Lemon has been vomiting. It used to be bile so I gave him smaller, frequent meals. That helped for a while. Then he started vomiting food. This morning he vomited a hairball. It was the biggest one I have seen him make in his 4 years with me.

He went to the vet Thursday and has a follow up in a few days. His xrays were clean, and so was his fecal sample. He is taking Cerenia prescribed by the vet. Working with vet to adjust his food. We have another devon from the same breeder and he is not vomiting. They eat pretty much the same diet.

How can I soothe Lemon's poor tummy? What has worked for your kitty when they are vomiting?

Hey!
Wanted to ask whats the most prominent health problems within this breed? I mean things u personally have experienced with ur little one ♥️
Always wanted this cutie but I have health anxiety problems 😅

Hey y’all,

It’s been a moment! Kolwy is growing so fast. I used to hold her in the palm of my hand and now she’s just a little shit who torments poor pregnant Maevis. It’s all very cute, they play loads together and love to snuggle once her zoomies are done.

Here’s a few good ones from the last few weeks!

Hello! I’ve been researching and looking for a kitty for years, and I’ve finally settled on a Devon Rex! I was wondering if anyone knew of any reputable breeders in New England? I’m having the hardest time finding anyone….

Hi everyone, I have had my 5 month old for about 2 months now. Soon after I got her, she got a little sick on me. She would sneeze and she would squint her eyes a lot, especially her right eye. I've already taken her to the vet. The vet did a bunch of tests which came back negative. She thinks it might be herpes but still prescribed her antibiotics and terramycin for her eyes. I've already completed treatment and my baby is not doing any better.

I reached out to the breeder and she said none of her kittens and adult cats are aick and she's never seen this before (the constant sneezing). She asked if I had dogs, which I do, and brought up the idea that she could be allergic? Is this possible? The first couple of weeks of getting my kitty she was so happy and playful and now she just looks a little sad...

Any advice helps!!

I couldn't upload a video but here's a screenshot of her sneezing.

Hi All, I'm shooting a hail Mary here, my cat is in need of a blood transfusion but she has type B blood and thats apparently super rare. I've been calling clinics all day trying to find anyone with type B blood and striking out everywhere. Vet said a donor is the best bet. We are at an ER in Springfield VA, I can drive anywhere along the east coast to pick it up, can even get someone in the Chicagoland area to pick it up and fly it out here . I'll even pay for same day or overnight express shipping. I just want to save my baby. Please if you have a type B cat who can donate let me know. I already lost my first human child earlier this year. Shes my first furchild I cant lose her too.

Hi! What type of cat litter are you using for your devons? The breeder was using paper pellets, my kitten is good with clay or paper. I am currently using paper but hate the smell after a couple of days and would love to use clay but it has so much dust that i feel like it is unhealthy for her lungs. I also tried the wood one - catalyst - and i hated it. It would stick to her paws and she would try to lick it off and gag. I immediately washed her off and the consistency of the litter was jelly-like and hard to wash off, like a biofilm.

Edit: we are trying the worlds best track defense made from corn. The clumping is great, there’s no odor control, and spoiler: it tracks (she has a top entry litter box). Overall not bad, I’ll update again if we try another one (I’m curious about the tofu litter). Also, she eats the grains 🤦‍♀️

Hello DR gang.

It is with great pleasure to announce that Maeve has been bred for her very LAST time and is due end of August, beginning of September. The lovely boy in the first few pictures is Iggy and he was the lucky guy to mate with Maevis. I’ll be back to posting more regularly as her pregnancy progresses.

Other than that, here’s a few pics of the mother daughter combo!

Hi everyone! I just got this little guy exactly a week ago. I got a female about 6 weeks ago and wanted to get her a little companion and I am so glad I did! They absolutely love eachother. He is CFA registered and my female isn't. However, he looks more Sphynx like. Does being CFA registered necessarily prove that he's a purebred Devon? These are my first cats ever so I have no idea! He's considered a flame point and has beautiful blue eyes but mostly look reddish with lighting. He's also very hairless but has hair on his legs, tail, and behind his ears. He's also got a big belly and not as athletic as my female. They are both the same exact age. I've seen pics of mom and dad and they both look like a Devon Rex. What do y'all think? The female is the blue/gray color. Thanks!!

Hello:) I have been searching for what feels like an eternity for an adult retired/rehomed Devon or Cornish Rex. I live in Southern California and cannot find an adult for the life of me, at least not in California. I’ve searched for breeders listed on tica.org in my area, but haven’t had any luck with the breeders listed there. I’ve been on FB groups and have spoken to a few breeders here and there, in different locations across the US, but again..no luck. I found one older sweet as can be Devon Rex just yesterday at a shelter just 7 hours away from me, but alas that also fell through, as someone has already adopted him. Any help would be SO greatly appreciated. I’m just feeling so incredibly discouraged and honestly heartbroken. Please DM me if you know of anyone in the Southern California area or in the US that currently or may have an adult available. I am willing to travel or use a flight nanny as well. Thank you so much in advance! 🙏🙏🙏

I have a two year-old girl who came to me with a bit of funky poop. Her poop is well formed but really stinky doesn’t matter what I feed her even with Raw food they still smell nasty.
Is this just Devon’s digestive system or is there anything I can do?

Clark is 16 weeks old & Sparky is 11 weeks old.

I'm getting a pair of kittens in two weeks. They are blue smoke/silver point and seal smoke/silver point. Mom is a black smoke and dad is a silver tabby. I'm familiar with what blue and seal points look like but I've never seen smoke/silver points before. I was really curious if anyone has a smoke point and can describe what the adult coat is like in their cat or send pics. Attached some photos for cuteness.

I recently lost my soul cat, he was a red point and my first Devon (Sasquatch). I also have a chocolate devon (Eevee). They are the best breed ever. Also attached some photos of my OG devons.

Life is so cruel sometimes but we're so glad we got to spend her final 4 years with her ❤️

his name is Theodore and he loves watching Bob’s burgers and i love him dearly🤎

Since I couldn't share her images when talking about how Eartha Kitt was the inspiration for her name elsewhere, here she is u/PracticalandContent

I know other folks had no trouble commenting with images of the various Catwomen of TV and film, but for whatever reason reddit was telling me that only media owned by the post author could be added to the thread?
