Cuerpo y estructura

Scottish Fold is a medium cat with companion background whose build should be read beside low movement demand, moderate trainability, and a grooming load of 2/5.

The Scottish Fold began in Scotland from a natural ear-fold mutation that became a pedigreed companion trait. Because the defining feature relates to cartilage, IQPets keeps movement and handling guidance conservative and comfort-aware.
