I recently got a silver scottish straight kitten! She’s super playful and gets along with people. But whenever we leave her alone she’s starts continuously meowing, she’s very clingy. I love her so much!

This was so very helpful! I’m considering both but wasn’t sure about the differences. I’m actually just wanting a pet and garden buddy. My furbaby girl passed 8/11/23 due to kidney disease. She was 13 years old (deaf past 2-1-2 years and was starting down the road with glaucoma). We started giving her weekly IV fluids & anti nausea medication in April but she stopped eating in August and we knew it was time. We rescued her 5 years ago after my previous furbaby passed at 19 years old. Saying goodbye to my precious kitties has been one of the hardest experiences in my life. I have always adored Smoothie (golden British longhair w/emerald eyes) and told myself that when the time came to adopt another cat, a British longhair female would be my next cat. But! I discovered Scottish Straight long haired yesterday and now I’m torn! You have made it much easier for me now that I know the differences between the two. Thank you again!

I just adopted a 6 month old Scottish Fold. He is the sweetest little guy and definitely clingy. I’m thankful I work from home so he doesn’t get lonely 💕

A week ago I had never heard of a Scottish Straight breed. Now I have bought a Scottish Straight Kitty and I have had him for four days. He is very playful and smart. At 8 months old, he is very large compared to most male cats his age. He is very heavy but thin as he is still so young and is still growing and not filled out yet. He is quite aloof and likes to be in the highest place in every room he is in. He loves to climb and also runs very fast from one end of the house to the other. He does not meow and does not like to be picked up or held on my lap, though he does love to be near me and follows me from room to room when he is not sleeping. On the first day he found he could jump up to the top of my high China Cabinet and he claimed that as his place... I had to empty the top so he has room to lay full-out there. He sleeps there for hours at a time now. He is totally non-aggressive and has a sweet disposition. He is extremely beautiful in tones of greys with copper eyes. I really love him but would have liked a kitty that wanted to be on my lap and would enjoy being held... Charlie is just not that way... I still think I got the right kitty though after looking for one for five years.

Hi there..I just subscribed to your channel. This is the most informative and easy to understand video about this topic. I'm thinking of buying these two breeds.

Where can I get the Scottish fold cat?

[ivanrubio]

how about two single fold cats to breed?

[cristinagravador]

Thank you po, very helpful!!! More vids like this pls! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤍

[DJPOtravels]

Thank you for this, now I have a clear answer between the two. British shorthair indeed in blue or lilac :)
I like chonkier, easy maintenance, more "aloof" but can be affectionate at times.

I had, until last year, a moggy cat who happened to have the FD gene. She had small ears, with totally folded eartips, and a crimp in the Henry's Pocket area, like young kittens, though her ears weren't looped. She also had double coat and semi-cobby/cobby structure. She lived 19 years.
She was also very smart, and had some manerism of scottish folds, aswell aggressive traits of her feral mum. (My cat wasn't feral, she liked to be around people).
Her mum was a long haired diluited tortie, I think the father was a Scottish Fold, my aunt (the one that gave me my cat) told me he was a big, black cat.
Now i have three regular cats, but in future I will get Scottish fold, they remember me my first cat.

i have a Scottish fold, man this cat is very quiet and very gentle and so sweet , and the best thing that its very clean, it cleans it self from litter before it gets out the box that i was surprised of this, my previous cat used to fill the ground with that litter when it gets out the box, and yea they like to come to u them selfs than u carry them they don't like getting carried and their meow is soo cute that i cant resist petting him or hugging him, id say always go for Scottish fold, the thing is here the Scottish is the most expensive cat, they like 700-800usd while British is like 450usd
