It's a dominant gene, which is why most Scottish
Fold cats tend to have
folded ears.
For decades,
cats have been bred to produce consistent physical features such as a shortened snout, inward
folded ears, round and lean faces, and a variety of colors and textures.
Scottish
fold cats are best - known for the fact that the tips of their
ears fold downward.
Fold your
cat's
ear again gently and wipe away any debris or earwax that you could see on the inside of the outer
ear.
The
fold is a genetic mutation that occurred in Scotland in a barn
cat called Susie and from the original single
fold due to a cartilage defect, selective breeding has increased the
folds to sometimes 3, causing the ears in some Scottish Folds to fold almost completely

ears in some Scottish
Folds to fold almost completely
Folds to
fold almost completely flat.
The Scottish
Fold cat, with its permanently
folded ears, is at a slight disadvantage here.
The Scottish
Fold is known for its
folded ears, though not ever
cat in the breed displays this trait.
The most well known is the Scottish

William Ross, a neighboring farmer, and his wife Mary had an interest in
cats and so were given one of Susie's kittens, a white female which also displayed
folded ears, they named the kitten Snooks.
If two
cats both with
folded ears are bred together, there is a high chance that the resulting kittens will suffer with severe bone and joint problems.
However, the
Cat Fancy in the United Kingdom became concerned about the possibility of increased
ear mite problems due to the
folded ears and possible genetic bone and joint difficulties.
We know that these
cats can have severe joint problems because of the genetic defect needed to get the
folded ear look; we should not breed these
cats.
