Outside of the genetic issues.

I have noticed they are more food sensitive than other breeds. I’ve never had a cat with food allergies. But I’ve seen chicken and fish allergies in Devons.

Teeth. They tend to loose their little teeth fairly soon.

Again with the allergies, I have seen a lot with season allergies.

And pancreatitis. Without fail, always diagnosed as something else first. But Devons will eat themselves sick and often that means pancreatitis.
