  • The Devon Rex
    The Breed of the Month is… The Devon Rex Overview The Devon Rex has been referred to as “the pixies of the cat fancy”, “elfin magic”, or as to resembling the “gremlins from the film Star Wars.” Along with their impish features, the Devon Rex sports a short soft velvety wavy coat. They are a cat of impish looks and a mischievous personality to match. The Devon Rex is an intelligent and highly active cat. History The Devon Rex originates from Buckfastleigh, Devon, England. It is here a feral tom cat with a brownish-black curly coat had been observed living in an abandoned tin mine. In 1960, Miss Beryl Cox, who lived near the old mine, gave shelter behind her house to a stray tortoiseshell & white female. The female gave birth to a litter of kittens in her back garden. One of these kittens had the same brownish-black curly coat as the feral tom. It is believed that the mother may have been one of his offspring and that he sired her litter as well. Miss Cox kept the curly coated kitten and named him Kirlee. Ten years prior, another curly kitten had been discovered in Cornwall, England. This kitten was named Kallibunker and was being used by interested breeders to establish the Rex cat as a breed. Brian Sterling-Webb was one of the breeders trying to preserve this curly coat gene. Miss Cox contacted Brian Sterling-Webb thinking her Kirlee could be able to contribute to that program. Kirlee was sold to Mr.Sterling-Webb and was integrated into the breeding program.

  • Gross Causes of Neonatal Mortality in Devon Rex and Persian Kittens By
    Gross Causes of Neonatal Mortality in Devon Rex and Persian Kittens by Holly Omoto A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Animal Sciences (Honors Scholar) Presented May 16, 2019 Commencement June 2019 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Holly Omoto for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Animal Sciences presented on May 16, 2019. Title: Gross Causes of Neonatal Mortality in Devon Rex and Persian Kittens. Abstract approved: _____________________________________________________ Michelle Kutzler Post-mortem examinations were performed on 29 deceased Persian kittens from 13 different litters, and 30 deceased Devon Rex kittens from 18 different litters in order to identify gross anatomical abnormalities. Fifteen kittens were stillborn (8 Devon Rex, 7 Persian), 17 kittens died during the first day of life (16 Devon Rex, 1 Persian), 14 kittens died later in the first week of life (5 Devon Rex, 9 Persian), and 13 kittens died during the second week of life (1 Devon Rex, 12 Persian). The average age at death excluding stillborn kittens was 5.2±4.7 days for both breeds, 1.8±2.0 days for Devon Rex kittens, and 8.5±4.2 days for Persian kittens. The most common sign reported by the cat breeders before death was dyspnea, with 12 kittens affected (11 Devon Rex, 1 Persian). Postmortem examination findings included pyothorax (9 Devon Rex kittens), pigmenturia (4 Devon Rex, 2 Persian kittens). It is estimated that at least 22.0% (13/59) of neonatal mortalities were due to infectious etiologies, at least 6.8% (4/59) were due to noninfectious etiologies, (n=7), and up to 71.2% (42/59) were classified as idiopathic.

  • 7 Hypoallergenic Cat Breeds for ESA - 2021 Guide
    7 Hypoallergenic Cat Breeds for ESA - 2021 Guide What Are Hypoallergenic Cats? Hypoallergenic means “slightly” allergenic. Hypoallergenic cats are those cats that have fewer allergies than other cats. Many cat owners believe that those cats who have less or no hair cause fewer allergies than the usual cats. Allergies are caused by ESA letter the saliva of the cat, not by the cat’s hair. All cats produce allergies, whether they are hairless or not. If you are thinking of getting a cat for your emotional support, check if it works for you and your family. Hypoallergenic cats include females, light-colored, and shed fewer cats. If you adopt the emotional support cat, and you are stuck in how to get an esa letter online, the procedure is simple. Simply get a therapist appointment online, and within a few minutes, you get the ESA letter through email. What are the Symptoms of Cat Allergy? You can easily get the cat as your emotional support animal (ESA), but you need a legal ESA letter before getting this. If you adopt the cat for your emotional support, you have to know their allergy symptoms. Here are some symptoms of cat allergies are: Coughing Sneezing Itchy red eyes Red skin where the cat has scratched Runny nose Stuffy nose Hives or rash If you see these symptoms, then consult your doctor immediately and request the doctor for an allergy test. Best Hypoallergenic Cat Breeds Hypoallergenic cats are known to produce fewer allergens than regular cats. But no cat is truly hypoallergenic; here are some hypoallergenic cat breeds are: Balinese Balinese cats produce less Fel D1 protein than other cats; they are less likely to cause an allergic reaction.
