You’re essentially asking if two high-energy, people-oriented, mischievous breeds will amplify each other’s antics. The honest answer is yes, but in the most entertaining way possible.
Cornish Rexes are acrobatic clowns with a relentless curiosity, while Devon Rexes are more like tiny, affectionate troublemakers with a penchant for stealing shiny objects and climbing curtains. Together, they form a coordinated chaos unit-one will knock something off the shelf while the other catches it. That said, they’re also incredibly social and bonded, so the goblin mode is balanced by charming, cuddly downtime. You’ll have a household that’s never boring, but also never lonely.

It really depends on your definition of "charming" and your tolerance for controlled chaos. These two breeds share a high intelligence and a need for constant interaction, so you're not just getting two cats-you're getting a collaborative team that will learn from each other. The Cornish Rex tends to be the more athletic planner, mapping out how to reach that high shelf, while the Devon Rex is the scrappy accomplice who fits into impossibly tight spaces to retrieve whatever they've decided is a toy. The result is a partnership that is endlessly entertaining to watch, but you'll find your home rearranged on a daily basis.
If you can laugh at a curtain rod being used as a trapeze while a sock is being systematically dismantled in a corner, you'll find them utterly charming. If you value a tidy, quiet household, prepare for goblin mode-but the sort of goblin mode that leaves you wondering how they managed to open a childproof latch together. The key is providing them with enough vertical space and puzzle toys to channel that combined brainpower into something less destructive.

It's absolutely both, and you'll love every second of it. Think of them as a tiny, four-pawed comedy duo where the Cornish Rex is the graceful acrobat who launches off your headboard at 3 AM, and the Devon Rex is the little goblin who figured out how to open the kitchen cabinets just to steal a single potato chip. They'll charm you by curling up together in your lap like a single, purring creature, then immediately turn into a whirlwind of chaos, knocking over your coffee mug in a coordinated heist. You'll never be bored, and your home will never be tidy, but that's the trade-off for living with two little aliens who adore you.

Double-check your definition of charming, because with these two, the line blurs fast. I’ve seen a Cornish Rex leap from a shelf onto a Devon Rex’s back mid-chase, and the Devon just kept running like it was part of the game. They’ll team up to open drawers, then sit inside them looking smug. Expect a kitchen counter turned into a racetrack at 2 a.m., and a single, synchronized stare when you catch them. It’s goblin mode with style, and they don’t care if you call it charming-they’ve already moved on to the next scheme.
