Scottish Folds

I am not a fan of the scottish fold but I was wanting to get cat profiles up.  (Much of this I copeyed from Wikipedia.)



 Some of the interesting things about this cat is that it is born with STRAIGHT ears. Strange for a cat than has curled ears. Scottish Folds, whether with folded ears or with normal ears, are typically good-natured and placid and adjust to other animals within a household extremely well. Also it can come it almost any color!  It can be long or short haired.... Hmm....  Interesting cat.  Read on.  Here are some facts about his body:

The Scottish Fold is a medium-size cat, with males typically reaching 4 to 6 kg (9-13 lbs), females 2,7-4 kg (6-9 lbs). The Fold's entire body structure, especially the head and face, is generally rounded, and the eyes large and round. The nose will be short with a gentle curve and the cat's body well-rounded with a padded look and medium-to-short legs. The head is domed at the top, and the neck very short. The broadly-spaced eyes give the Scottish Fold a "sweet expression".

Here are some other random facts:

Scottish Folds, whether with folded ears or with normal ears, are typically good-natured and placid and adjust to other animals within a household extremely well. They tend to become very attached to their human caregivers and are by nature quite affectionate. Folds receive high marks for playfulness, affection, and grooming, and are often intelligent, loyal, soft spoken, and adaptable to home situations, people and children.

 AND SOME MORE INTERESTING FACTS;

Folds are also known for sleeping on their backs. Scottish Folds typically have soft voices and display a complex repertoire of meows and purrs not found in better-known breeds. Folds are also known for sitting with their legs stretched out and their paws on their belly. This is called the "Buddha Position".


 The typical lifespan of a Scottish Fold is 15 years.









I would appreciate any comments from you. Also to see all my posts, they are all on the right side.
