I have two Devons. My eldest is about 15 months and I got her almost a year ago. She super sweet. The newest is about 6 months- I got her about 2 months ago. She is a nightmare. It's a 3 kitty household. My eldest kitty and my eldest Devon wait patiently when it comes time to be fed (they get wet food twice a day with dry food in the bowl throughout). My youngest Devon starts screaming the moment a human wakes up the morning, eats some of her food- and then attacks everyone else. I have to separate her.

She repeatedly attacks me and my partners food. Like jumps up onto the table if we are not vigilant and drags things off our plates. Earlier today. I turned around for about 5 seconds and she dragged my sandwich across the house and spilled coffee everywhere. Once again- she gets wet food twice a day and the kibble bowl is always full. My other Devon does not behave this way and never did even when she was a kitten.

This one also constantly screams for attention. Me and my partner play with her multiple times a day- she has toys- two other cat to play with- etc. But she she'll just randomly start yawling for attention. She gets up into everything. She'll literally scale the shelves, take rocks out of the planters, etc. I know Devons need a lot of attention, but my other doest or never acted like this.

Edit: Since there's a huge a-hole in the comments saying I didnt ask a question... do yours act like this?
I posted because I wanted to ascertain others experiences with the breed.- not for people to be mean to me saying thats how cats act. I love all my kitties. She just very- extra. I dont know if this I normal or not for Devons since my other is the complete opposite in personality. And none of my other cats that I have my entire life have acted like this. I was hoping people would share their experiences. Not be mean. I do have a visit with a cat specialist vet this week.

I had hoped to get some support or similar experiences. Instead a-holes/trolls are attacking me.

So I have a female Devon- 15 months now. When she hit about 7 months she was around 7.5 pounds and already looked a bit 'rotund' in the middle and my partner expressed weight concerns. However, she was still a kitten I didnt think much of it. She stayed around that same weight from about 7 months to a little over a year. We started putting up her food bowl at night (she gets wet food twice a day and I would leave dry food out- the cattery told me that wouldn't be an issue because they burn a lot of calories due to not having as much fur). It was fine, but following the same food practices- she's exploded over the last month and a half. Gained over a pound and looks like a bowling ball. She's not even on kitten food anymore. I try playing with her more, tried an exercise wheel, but nothing seems to be working. It's a multi-kitty household so restricting dry food is hard. I recently got another Devon kitty and they play together so I thought that would help. But no- she's just gained more weight instead.

Any experiences with this? She's over a year old- I've seen pictures of some of her sisters and they are trim in the middle- while she's a bowling ball.

I‘m a new parent of Devon Rex kitty and she’s also my first pet. She’s about 9 months old now.

I notice that she scratches her front ears area, back of her ears quite often. I took her to the doctor two weeks ago and the doctor did tell me she has yeast otitis externa; they prescribed Medex drop for my cat.

I wonder if my cat scratching herself is common for cats in general or should I be concerned about foodallergies.
