Origin
The Devon Rex emerged in Devon, England, in the 1960s. The breed developed from a naturally occurring mutation associated with its distinctive curly coat.
Temperament
Devon Rex cats are often lively, curious and people-oriented. Many like to stay close to their household, but sociability and energy vary between individuals.
Size
A small-to-medium cat with a fine but muscular build. Weight varies from cat to cat.
Grooming
The short, fine coat needs gentle care. Despite its unusual texture, no cat breed is hypoallergenic; people with allergies may still react to allergens from skin and saliva.
Activity
Many are energetic and enjoy climbing, exploring and interactive play. Provide safe vertical spaces and regular engagement.
Who this breed suits
A Devon Rex may suit someone looking for an interactive, playful companion. Its fine coat offers less insulation than many coats, so provide warm resting spots and discuss the individual cat's care needs.
