SCOTTISH FOLD

These sweet natured funny looking cats are donated by of Mother Nature. The first Scottish Fold was Susie, a white barn yard cat, dicovered by a shepherd in Scotland. Today all true Scotttish Fold Cats trace their ancestors back to Susie. Lop earred cats were found several times on several places of the world. As early as hundred years ago some encyclopaedias mentionned "Chinese Lop-Earred Cats". One of these specimens was brouht home by an English sailor, causing a lot of sensation. Susie - was she a rediscovered Chinese?

Scottish Folds are uncomplicated cheerful companions, happy and healthy without any extraordinary demands. Their small ears cling to the full rounded cheeks like a soft cap. Temperament of Scotties corresponds to their cute look: Fond of playing they seem to like jokes. With their funny ideas they can make you smile even when you are feeling bad. Scottish Folds enjoy cuddling, they answer with gentle purring or speak with soft voice. They agree with (nearly) everything their master will do to them without any scratching or biting. In contrary to certain prejudices Scottish Folds are able to hear very well and are in sturdy state of health. Many of them grow rather old - 15 years and much more - staying in good condition. Their extraordinary vitality is due to the hybrid mode of breeding.
