Which cat breed is right for you?
The Devon Rex appeared in 1959 in Buckfastleigh, Devon, England — just a decade after the Cornish Rex, though the two breeds' curly coats are caused by entirely different genetic mutations. This small-to-medium breed weighs 5–10 pounds and has an unmistakable pixie-like face with enormous, low-set ears, large oval eyes, and prominent cheekbones. Their short, soft, wavy coat can come in virtually any color or pattern and has a suede-like texture.
Devon Rex cats are mischievous, high-energy clowns that love to perch on shoulders, steal food, and insert themselves into every activity. They are fiercely people-oriented and will follow their owners everywhere — including into the shower if given the chance. They get along splendidly with children, dogs, and other cats, and their playful, affectionate nature makes them impossible to ignore.

The Sphynx originated in Toronto, Canada, in 1966 when a domestic cat gave birth to a hairless kitten due to a natural genetic mutation. Through careful breeding with Devon Rex and other cats, the Sphynx was established as a robust breed. Weighing 6–12 pounds, this medium-sized cat is famous for its apparent hairlessness — though most Sphynx have a fine layer of peach-fuzz that gives their skin a warm, suede-like texture. Their wrinkled skin, lemon-shaped eyes, enormous ears, and pot belly give them an unmistakable extraterrestrial appearance.
Sphynx cats are extroverted clowns that crave human attention and warmth — literally, as they seek out body heat and will burrow under blankets or curl up on any available lap. They are fearless, social, and endlessly entertaining, performing acrobatic feats and greeting everyone — including strangers — with enthusiasm. They do wonderfully with children, dogs, and other cats.
