Catherine - They feel like petting velvet...if you can imagine...very very soft...but warm as there is no hair to buffer the heat to you. When you see them you think they won't be soft or nice to pet but I prefer it to a coated cat as it is sooo soft! If you don't bathe them for longer than recommended they can get an oily feel. And yes, they are sensitive to sun. You can't EVER let them outside (and for the price you pay you wouldn't let them walk out the door anyways....and being inside is sooo much safer for any cat!), and you do have to watch that they don't have window they can suntan in for long periods.

Devons!! I love them! I had one many years ago and I think that will be the second cat that we add to our house.....I like their personality alot...very dog like just like the Sphynx. Mine was fairly coated though...lots of curls. She was gorgeous. I have found a breeder in Ontario that I like...but would love to find a GOOD Devon Rex breeder closer to us!
