The Scottish Fold cat is a sweet and charming cat. It's often been compared to owls because of its close-set ears, large eyes, and rounded face. The Scottish Fold cat breed was first seen in Scotland. They can all trace their ancestry to a cat named Susie, who had folded ears and spent time as a mouser. They are wonderful cats to live with, but they come with their own set of care requirements. As a Scottish Fold owner, this video will point out 5 common mistakes Scottish fold cat owners make, helping you know what you’re doing wrong, so you can improve the way you care for them.

My first cat had folded ears (single) and was a moggy. she lived 19 years.
1 - she developed arthritis at the age of 11 because she was getting old, but her tail was always flexible, even the last day of her life. I've seen online how to make the tail test on a fold to see if he/she is developing OCD (OCD start from the tail first). The tail of my cat ended up perfect.
2 - When I adopted my cat, I didn't now the SF breed exist. Yes, she got small ears, but I could not point my finger to the cause.
I got her cheecked to the vet more, after she got cancer (she didn't die because of it, actually, she defeated the monster).
3 - well, my cat wasn't a pure breed, and her mum was feral. She was a very good cat, never scratched anything, she didn't even steal food, until she was very old.
4 - My cat had very dense fur, indeed. But she didn't allow me to brush her.
5 - My cat was indoor/outdoor. For the first year of her life she was indoor only, but she managed to escape twice and getting lost. I had to slowly allow her to go outside, to avoid to accidentally lose her. She got two accident, she got hit by a car, miracolously with no consequences, and she was shot, got a minor injury. After that, nothing happened to her. But she stayed more around the house. She also had some potentially life treatening accidents indoor. But the only thing that killed her was CKD at 19.
Unfortunately, the feral cat I adopted later wasn't this lucky.
This cat was really strong...
I let mine out daily but I stay near her and watch her the entire time. She enjoys it and being active helps keep her fit and limber at almost 9yrs old. Which I feel Is the best thing you can do to help them age with inevitable OCD
My scottish fold just died at 20. I claim it to never eating pet food in her life
We have an almost 3 year male scottish fold. First yr was rough as he kept defecating with bloody tinged stools. We kept bringing him to the vet and all tests were negative. No parasites except that there were lots of undigested food. Until we thought he might be allergies on foods so we started feeding him real chicken meat plus hypoallergenic dry cat foods. Bloody tinged stools stop (but stool was semi solid albeit acceptable accdg to his vet). On his 2nd yr, we discovered a great dry cat food brand with probiotic and he’s finally able to achieve solid stools until today. ❤
which food was it i need it for my cat please
Non. Never missed anything to my 3 months old kitten Scottish fold even more then protected hovering most the time all my time even I keep her in sight to see what she is doing to prevent any accidents, because I lost my Scottish boy at 6 months and 2 days to heart defects, I was mad at the veterinarian because I asked him to do all the test but at 6 months old me he had heart defects.
I just realized I need to brush him he has a lot for fluffy fur unfortunately my baby brother pulls his tail sometimes and I won’t be there to stop but when I do I protect him 😭I literally go to school sorry my precious Scottish fold cat he currently has ear mites taking medicine I hope he gets better ❤
I have scottish folded ear cat, sometimes on night always meowing and hardly to make him sleep. So I toke him to a doctor to see any health issue but they told me nothing wrong with my cat he's health. I just wonder why he's meowing at night.
same here, it suddenly started out of nowhere she wakes up in the morning and starts meowing like a scream
Because they want to sleep with their owner. Omggg you ppl are idiots. Omg why is my cat meowing. Jezussss what’s wrong with you ppl.
Maybe he is looking for a mate
I have not a chance to own one ,doing research first. I had lose my German shepherd, 18+ years. I can't handle a big dog . So looking smaller. Asking if you know anyone I can trust to adopted one are two.thankyou very much sign talking to my.
Not all Scottish fold have these medical issues. Only the Scottish folds with the folded ears. My kitten is a gray long hair with normal ears, so she will not experience these health problems down the line.
that's called a scottish straight, which are basically the same cat breed but without FOCD, which is the health problem that causes the folded ears, all scottish folds have this disease, the kittens that are born without it are denominated scottish straights and are indeed completely free of this specific disease, thus are not in pain because of it
my scottish fold male 10 months is shedding too much his hair is all over my house on carpet and flying in air what should i do
Excessive shedding could be due to stress or illness, so try to find out what changes may be affecting him. Also Scottish folds shed a lot during spring and fall compared to other seasons. Try to groom him regularly to get rid of loose hair.
@@thecagdot noted i took her to vet they trimmed him shedding stopped
Scottish fold are have doubled hair layer
Brush daily. Can shave if it's that much of a problem
Please someone tell me I'm crying please, my Scottish fold male cat pees outside the litterbox, sometimes in front of me , and meows at night and this is all just making me cry, I'm not annoyed but I'm scared that he is trying to tell me something, also is it normal for a Scottish fold to fall of hair? Please someone answer I'm scared
Yes, they tend to shed a lot depending on the season, but if you’re concerned it’s too much, you should meet a vet for checkup.
Is he trained to use the litter box? Try to monitor him and make sure he uses the litter box whenever he wants to go.
Get him more toys and exercise him regularly, that usually helps with the meowing at night.
@@thecagdot yes he is actually, he's been over a year with us and he knows how to use the litter box, to be honest he eats well and everything but it seems like doing his thing outside the litter box makes me more worried, what can you really want me to do in this condition, I've planned to bring him pet dippers cause I don't really want to bring him to a vet for this thing cause I still want him to have kids if you understand what I mean
Thanks btw ❤❤❤
He is trying to tell u that he has a problem plz take him to the doctor, regarding hair fall issue give vitamin to reduce it
@@soulmesho Thank s but are you sure cause a woman who worked at a pet SHOP told me that he just needs a female cat near him
@@dalumaparis2975 if there’s a strong annoying odor in his pees that means he needs a female ,,, but if the pees odor normal means there’s a problem, I hope he gets better.
2:14 I need to leave him at home for 2 days what am I gonna do 😭
You know right there is "cAt hOtEl"
@@inperfect_ We dont have one bc our city is too small
Pet sitter? Or leave extra food and water bowls and litter boxes. He'll survive

No 5 is not true. I have a scottish fold. I put him in a harness & leash . He also has a gps tracker on him. Yes people love him & may want to steal him. But thats karma on their end.

Nah, I can never own a cat because I care more about their looks then the health issues that come along with it. I’m pretty sure all Scottish fold cats have health issues to some degree or another.
Munchkin Scottish fold. Look for a female Scottish fold to breed this wonderful breed
