Your channel is sooo underrated.

Back in 2002, a stray scottish fold was living in my Uncle's backyard. I had just lost my tabby cat who I had since I was 4 and decided to take the cat in. Now 18 years later, she's on a strict diet and has benign tumors in her ears. She's constantly had a cone on throughout her life due to scratching her ears to bleeding. I have to clean those ears everyday and take her to her food because of her sore body. I'm grateful for her, and thankfully she's a mix. Her problems aren't as intense as pure folds. She's in great shape for 20. I will never take in or buy another SF again though.

Woah long life!

Our Scottish Fold is 18 months old and already on expensive monthly medication due to an early developed arthritis. This breed requires extra care and attention, and can be very costly addition to the family. Any potential SF owner should understand that the Vet bills, medication and special diets will sum up to pretty substantial monthly costs. And if you cannot accommodate these expenses - please do not get this breed, otherwise your pet will slowly suffer in pain. Be responsible and realistic prior to inviting one to your family.

Thx, i think im too poor to get this breed

I didn't know all of this stuff about Scottish folds :( it's sad since they look so cute. But I agree, better to adopt kitties who need good homes ♥

You know cats have sex right ? So the ones you don't buy will eventually have to be adopted I will never understand that logic both are a must!

My first cat was a black shorthair housecat who happened to carry one copy of the mutant TRPV4 gene. She got a single fold. She lived almost 20 years. Now is 2 years she died. I miss her.

Anyway, is not that the cartilage of folds doesn't support the ears. Folds have hard cartilage. Ears of my cat were thicker and stiffer compared tho regular ears. They don't straight up when the cat grows past 3 weeks and remain just like those of small kittens.

what a nice channel! i love the bits about adopting adults and strays, thank you

i have a scottish fold and he is 3 months old. We got it as a gift. SF is pretty cute but since i knew the health issues he would get, i did not really wanted him, i did not wwnt both of us to be in pain.He is very active and i really hope he will be healthy. He his kind of mix because his mothers mom was a brittish. ( his dad amd his mothers dad are scottish)

Woah. Thanks for making this video! 😁

Hi! Please do a video differentiating British, American, and Scottish Shorthairs, please! All these 3 breeds possess nearly the same looks (including shades and patterns) and personalities. It would be nice to find a video that shows how to tell them apart from one another. Thanks! Love your videos!

Thank you for being honest

Any cat can be sick me i had two "exotic shorthair " i had one for 13 years and he had trouble with his teeths they remove almost all of them and he survive when he pass away i was so sad , i bought an other one but different color and him to has problem with his teeths he has 3 teeths to remove and it's very expensive,i love him and i will take care him.Having an animal it's like having children.😼😺❤💯

Thank you for this wonderful and informative video. I have a question about Blue Scottish Straight vs Blue British Shorthair. When I compare these two, I can't see the physical difference. What is the difference in physical description?

Thank You so much for informing future cat owners about the risks of buying a Scottisch Fold. I'm considering a cat and Scottisch Fold was my first choice, I was sure that if a breeded crosses a Fold with a British cat (for example) all the kittens would be free of this condition. Now I know better, thank You for that!

They are not free but not all will suffer from it’s affects.

They're cute!! British Shorthair cats are especially cute and adorable

Thnxx for the info im into adopting than buying bt loved tht Scottish folds ear n was attracted to it n willing to get one bt after knowing she might suffer its a big NO i wont be able to see them suffering 😢

My first cat had the folded ears gene.

Entonces … si se junta una data fold y un British…. El gatito que nazca con las orejas rectas será un scottish straight? Ese gatito de orejas rectar se podría juntar para la cría con un fold?

My British short hair weighs only 4 kg at 3 years old. The vet says she's fine just small

Both of them I love because I have cat have a scottich brittish breed

My BSH hates children, and hates new guests they immediately run away while that newborn is chasing the cat!

it's have ears cute

I’m getting a cat who is half both of these breeds so idk what that means

i have a scotish straight long hair kitten he isn't pure Scottish straight he is half persian

I have a kitten and her mom is a scotish fold and her dad a british shorthair and i just recently bought her so she is just 2 month's old and i bought for only 400 euro because i am from macedonia everything here is a lot cheaper than other countries

One of my kitten is a long hair, but I have no idea if she is British or Scottish. 😭 Been trying to figure this out since she was a week old, smdh. EDIT: Okay, I think she is a Scottish straight long hair. At least I have a better idea now. Thanks!

I found Brit short hair thrown by their owner the mother and 4 baby kitten, my very first time ever having a pet

I'm two cat's mom .... scottish+british😅😂

Just asking, would the disease continue if one of the Scottish folds parents was a British Shorthair and the other was still a fold?

@carolynshepherd8344

Жыл бұрын

Because of the gene that causes the folded ears, all Scottish folds will develop the cartilage/bone disease called osteochondrodysplasia. However, if bred with a British, the chance of the disease being severe is greatly reduced. There are also joint supplements that lots of people give their folds to help even further. The video made it seem like all Scottish folds will suffer horrible painful lives and that just isn't true!

@@joshualam9746 I have both of them. Female Scottish fold and a male British short hair. The whole family fell in love with the Scottish fold because we got her a couple of weeks earlier and because she is more cuddly and careful while contacting our bare skins. The British short hair is so far enjoying isolation and hates being in hands (we have him for only 2 weeks so this might change)

Awesome

All type of cat breeds suffer some form of ailment especially when they get older. Just make sure to get a Scottish fold that has a parent who’s from a different breeds. Most popular breed is British shorthair. My Scottish fold is 3 years old and healthy with no joint or health issues. All Scottish folds are susceptible to osteochondrodysplasia but not all will suffer the affects. Much like other breeds susceptible to their specific ailments. I would avoid the triple folded and go with a single fold.

I worry that another cat would think a Scottish Fold is aggrsssive. I heard this is an issue for some Scottish Folds.

The Scottish fold cat is so cute look at its ears

I didn’t know that about Scottish Folds. That’s sad. We have to stop breeding animals with genetic conditions. English and French Bulldogs and Pugs come to mind. They have trouble breathing all the time. They have so many health issues.
