A Devon Rex Reviews the Morning News and Shreds Every Page

AI imagedevon rexcaught in the actnewspaper

Shredded newspaper lies in a heap at the front of the room, and a slim gray Devon Rex stands beside it with huge ears, round eyes, and a head tilted back to watch someone. The short, wavy coat looks velvety in the lamplight, and a blue sofa and a coffee table sit behind. A few scraps cling to the cat's whiskers.

Devon Rex cats are playful, social, and often described as pixie-like, with large ears, high cheekbones, and a soft, wavy coat. They are known for being energetic and for wanting to be involved in everything their people do, including perching on shoulders. That lively mind needs enrichment: puzzle feeders, climbing trees, and daily play with a wand toy can help redirect shredding urges. Newspaper ink is usually mild, but chewed paper isn't a great snack, so it helps to keep papers off low tables. If your cat eats a lot of paper or seems unwell, call your vet.

The morning news is now much shorter than it was. The cat, on the other hand, seems very pleased with the edition and prepared to read it aloud, to any audience, in her own chirpy voice. Every house with a Devon Rex learns quickly that the newspaper is a toy, and the best fix is a tall tree and a good game afterward.
