About the Breed

Scottish Fold cats are known for their adorable appearance, particularly their unique folded ears that give them an owl-like or teddy bear-like expression. Their ears fold forward and downward, giving them their distinctive look. Not all Scottish Folds have folded ears; some may have straight ears due to their genetic makeup. They are generally known for their sweet and affectionate nature. Scottish Folds are often described as being friendly, gentle, and easy-going. They tend to get along well with children and other pets, making them excellent family pets. They are also known for being intelligent and moderately active cats, enjoying interactive play and engaging with their human companions.
