Overview & Traits
The Scottish Fold, also known as the Coupari, is a breed of cat with a natural dominant-gene mutation that makes its ear cartilage fold forwards, giving them an oddly cute "owl-like" appearance.
Trait Profile
Breed History
The origins of the Scottish Fold date back many decades, surrounded by fascinating lore and dedicated breeding programs. Early foundation cats were crossbred to solidify the standard traits we observe today. It quickly gained international recognition by the WCF and other major registries.
Living Needs
When it comes to the living environment, the Scottish Fold thrives in spaces where it can safely explore, play, and interact with its family. They benefit from vertical spaces like cat trees and regular mental stimulation. A balanced diet and routine veterinary check-ups are essential for their well-being.
