Thank you Beryl. Why was your DH so opposed to a Devon? Is it because they look a little unusual? And have no social graces or "cat etiquette"? Mine just got into bed after I'd done a Big Fart, and is now snuggled up to my bum. 
Burmese are beautiful cats too, with similar sweet natures. I think when Devons were discovered, they were out-crossed with Burmese.
He also enjoys drinking from the toilet.
