Lilly is a 4-year-old Devon Rex in Clifton, NJ who needs $4,613 for oral cancer treatment, for electrochemotherapy and medications.

Lily is a Devon Rex. I got her when she was a kitten as a companion to our other cat Coco. I work 9-5 so i didn't want to leave Coco home alone wtihout a companion for 8 hours a day so we got Lily to be her friend. Devons have very unique personalities. They usually pick one human to be theirs and once they do, they will never leave your side. Luckily, she chose me to be her mom. Every day, when I get home from work, she greets me at the door with her meowing hello, and immediately runs to her toys ready to play. She sits in front of her wand and just looks up at me and paws at it as if saying, here it is! Lets play! And she LOVES that wand. I swing that wand with a toy mouse that dangles from the end of a string as she stalks it while she pounces in and out of her cat tunnel. When i am at home, i normally throw on a robe over whatever i'm wearing. And Lily can't wait to get in it! LOL. Whenever i sit down on the couch or at my computer desk, climbs in to nestle down. When I am home, you will almost always see her in my robe. Getting as close as she can possibly get. Same thing at bedtme! Once she hears we are going to sleep, shes right in ther with me. She has a nightly ritual of crawling under the covers, onto my belly, with nose down, just wanting to take in my scent, while kneeding away with her paws and that loud devon purrrrr. I usually have to move her over but she won't be far! She is a heat seeker and needs to have her body touch mine throughout the night. Devons run hot. Well maybe not, but since they only have an undercoat and you can feel their heat off their body more than other cats. In the winter it's like having a little heater in bed with you. She is super goofy. Many Devons are. They also LOVE heights. We converted a ikea bookcase into 1/2 bookcase and 1/2 playground for her. I cut round holes throughout and lined it with cat scratcher pads so she climb through it and up to the top where i added a hammock. If shes not in my robe, you can bet shes up there looking over watching me from her vantage point. She really is such a silly, goofy, lovebug and I can't imaging life without her.
