Scottish Fold (Scottish Fold) - perhaps the most fascinating and interesting cat breed.And it is exactly no other cat can not get around in Scottish aristocratic grace and innate, which is manifested both in appearance and behavior throughout Scotland.
Since the story of the breed, first it must be said that the Scottish Fold cat breed is very young.The first cat with unusual drooping ears was found in Scotland in 1961.From mating with an unknown cat in her kittens were born with the same original ears.After some time, the breed was registered under the name scottish fold.
Scottish - close relatives of British Shorthair cats.In fact, the Scots are divided into two groups - Scottish Fold (Fold) and Scottish Stright (pryamouhie).The fact that the binding of two lop-eared cats are not allowed, as this may cause bone abnormalities in kittens (Such are the costs of the young breed).So always pick Fold cat-Straight (and vice versa).
Until recently (and even at the turn of the new millennium) Scottish straights believed the British and execute exactly like the British, so it was thought that Scottish fold need to knit with the British.Until recently, we did so, getting into the litter as the fold and pryamouhie.While some considered the Scots, and the other, respectively, by the British.
But now we felinologists finally figured out and mixing of these two noble breeds brought to an end - Scottish Fold knit only Scottish Straight.Straight born in virtually all litters Fold cats.Despite the straight ears and the apparent absence of a dominant gene lop-eared Fd, carry Stright set of genes that support the features of the breed.Scottish Stright - a full Scottish, although superficially more like the British cats.
Scottish safely be attributed to one of the most trouble-free in the content.They are characterized by an amazing ingenuity and quick learner.
Scottish kittens quickly learn the rules and orders of living in the apartment.Even in the turbulent teenage years you will not see Scottish hanging on the curtains.Scottish
just need human society, they are very people-oriented.And at the same time they can not be considered intrusive.Even young Scots themselves may well take in the absence of the beloved master.Do not forget to leave the kitten toys.Perfect small ball, very much like kittens toys on springs, fixed permanently on a stand - they are so much fun to catch the foot.
