🐾 Scottish Fold Kittens for Sale in Singapore

🐱 What Makes the Scottish Fold Cat Special?

The Scottish Fold is an affectionate, quiet, and curious breed instantly recognised by its forward-folded ears, giving it an "owl-like" look. These cats are incredibly charming and adapt well to families, singles, or homes with other pets.

Key Characteristics:

• 👂 Folded ears due to a genetic cartilage mutation

• 🧸 Round face, large eyes, and soft expression

• 🧥 Short-haired or long-haired coat in many colours

• 🐾 Calm, quiet, and easy to bond with

• 🧠 Intelligent, playful, yet independent

 

🕰️ A Brief History of the Scottish Fold

The Scottish Fold cat was first documented in 1961 in Scotland, when a farmer discovered a white barn cat named Susie with folded ears. Her kittens inherited the same trait, and the breed was carefully developed and introduced worldwide.

Interestingly, folded-ear cats had been mentioned earlier—in 1796, an English sailor brought home a folded-ear cat from China. However, it was Susie's bloodline that led to the breed’s international recognition by the late 1970s.
