SCOTTISH FOLD

The Scottish Fold is best known for its distinctive ears, which are folded forward and down, as well as by its large rounded eyes, which give it a sweet, wide-eyed expression. They are laid back and affectionate cats.

Scottish Folds are found in both longhaired and shorthaired varieties, in a great number of colors and pattern combinations. The longhaired variety is sometimes referred to as a "Highland Fold".

All Scottish Fold kittens will not have folded ears. They are born with straight ears. At about three weeks of age, a breeder will begin to know which kittens will have folded ears and which will not. There are also degrees of folding.  Usually described as a single, double, or triple fold. A single fold is generally a loose fold and isn't show quality. The most desirable fold is a triple fold, which is tight to the head. However, straight eared Scottish Folds are sought after in breeding programs and still make wonderful pets.

The Scottish Fold is accepted by all major North American cat registries.
