Scottish Fold Cat: Cat Breed Profile.

Characteristics, History, Care Tips, and Helpful Information for Pet Owners


The distinguishing characteristic of the Scottish fold cat is its small ears which fold forward and downward, giving it an impish look.

Sweettempered and attentive, devoted, but not demanding, the fold makes a perfect pet. As the fold is outcrossed with both American and British shorthair cats, think of it as having a "British sense of decorum along with an American sense of selfconfidence," according to The International Scottish Fold Association.


The Scottish fold cat is not to be confused with the American curl, which also has folded ears.

The difference will be immediately noticeable, an American curl's ears curl upwards and back as opposed to the Scottish fold's ears which fold forward.
