Scottish Fold Cat Breed

About the Scottish Fold Cat Breed
Scottish Fold Physical Characteristics
The Scottish Fold is recognized by its medium-sized body and unusual ears, which fold forward and downward, and are quite small. The ears begin to fold when they are three weeks old, pricking up at sudden noises and then laying back to display anger.
Color(s): Originally bred to have white coats, it can now be seen in a variety of colors.
Coat: Most Scottish Folds have short, silky hair, although there is a long-haired variety as well.

Scottish Fold Personality and Temperament
Activity Level: Low to moderate
Positives :
Gentle, intelligent and extremely well-adjusted, the Scottish Fold is also very affectionate. And though it can get very attached to its people, it will not be a pest or a nuisance. Like many other cats, it enjoys playing, but is especially responsive to training.
Things to Consider :
Because the breed is rare to begin with and not every kitten born has folded ears (only about half of the Folds born actually develop their signature folded ears), it can be difficult to acquire a Scottish Fold as the supply does not always keep up with the demand for the breed.
Scottish Fold Care
Special Requirements: Shorthaired Folds require little coat maintenance beyond a weekly brushing but longhaired varieties may need more regular grooming and combing to maintain their coats and prevent mats.
