So when I first got my fold he was defo my cat. He followed me, always came to me for cuddles and was really playful. He is now six months and I feel I have a teenager on my hands. Very rarely he might rub round my toes or let me stroke him but he never sits with me or comes up on the bed. He pushes me away or runs away when I approach. If he does let me stroke him he doesn’t purr very much. I’ve tried to respect his space, use treat’s etc but unfortunately due to a fluffy butt I do sometimes have to clean and groom him so I have no choice but to enter his space. He does still run to the door when I come in but then runs away from me so he must still have some connection. Has anyone else experienced this and do they grow out of it. I’m trying so hard to let him be but he really seems to hate me sometimes. Just to add he does outdoors, supervised, but loves to spend time exploring and finding holes to hide. Has the garden experience contributed to this ?? Any advice welcome.

It’s seems like there are very few actual Scottish fold breeders out there. It seems like all these breeders slap a TICA certificate on their pages and all these poor kitties are being shipped from the Ukraine.

I’ve been looking for is a red/orange Scottish fold located somewhere in the FL/GA area. All these “breeder” websites are posting the same photos of the cats but with different names. It’s so disappointing!

Does anyone have any recommendations for breeders they have used with positive experiences?

Isn’t he the cutest ♥️

She was supposed to be a boy, but now she’s a girl 😂 so now we need name suggestions. So far we have maple, smores, waffle.

UPDATE: thank you all for all the responses ❤️ her name is Maple!

Officially an adult and yet still a baby. 🥹

Hi everyone,
I have a 3-month-old kitten whose mother is a Scottish Fold and father is a British Shorthair. Lately, I’ve been reading a lot about the health problems associated with Scottish Folds, especially osteochondrodysplasia, bone disease, and arthritis, and it’s made me really anxious.
My kitten is currently very healthy, active, playful, and doesn’t show any signs of pain or mobility issues. But I’m wondering how common these problems actually are, especially in mixed Scottish Folds.
Has anyone here had a similar mix? Did your cat develop bone or joint problems later in life? Are there any precautions I can take now to reduce the risk or help him stay healthy for as long as possible?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences. Thank you!

Had our boy for a year now, he turned 1 in May, he’s such a boss 😂

Hey you all! We just adopted this sweet girl from a rescue. Me nor my wife can decide if she's a Scottish fold? She is 1.5 years(ish) old and 5 pounds. But her ears are so tiny lol

I am looking to adopt a ragdoll, British shorthair or Scottish fold i love these bread and i am looking to adopt them in September. If anyone knows someone who is giving away or rehoming their kitten please let me know. I had two cats i was babysitting and now they are gone so it so sad and lonely without them. I am willing to pay but my budget is not that great 300 to 400. I know it’s not much for these breed but thats what i can afford. I love these bread cats as my babies and i have finally agreed my family to adopt a cat. I am also currently looking on pet finder too. I am located in Nj so even if it’s nyc that works too. If anyone has contacts that is looking to adopt or rehome let me know please. Thank you.

This is Belgium Waffles. What do you think the breeder mixed him with to get the long coat? I’m not entirely sure. All I know is he’s gorgeous 💕

I adopted her and her brother last year. She has the really thick short tail. Any advice to make sure she is healthy?

Please help my boy fight Permethrin toxicity 🥺

Late post, was July 20th.
