This breed appeared in 1960s in the county of Devon, England. 
     Devon Rex is a thin-coated, wavy-furred cat with curly whiskers and eyebrows. The hind legs are long, but the front legs are bowed and shorter. The chest is broad. The wedge-shaped head has wide cheeks and huge, low-set ears with small lynx-like tufts at their tips.
     Despite their frail appearance, Devon Rexes are remarkably healthy and hardy cats. They can't sleep in the cold becuase of their thin coat, but when active thay can even play in snow. They loose heat very quickly and need good nutrition to restore fat supplies, normally they have a huge appetite.
     Devon Rex is said to be friendly, lively, affectionate, playful, intelligent, mischievous, impish, enterprising, active, inquisitive, extrovert. Some humans say that this breed has several dog-like qualities: it retrieves; it follows its owner; it wags its tail when pleased. (It sounds strange to me, I wag my tail when I am annoyed, and want my humans to leave me alone!)
     Color forms: All colors and patterns are acceptible in this breed.
