Hi! I'm Dragon's Egg!
Remember the Scottish Folds that came in at the end of 2023? I am the dad, and I'm official adoptable with my son, Wild Remedy!
I've had an going battle with a nasty wound on my neck and had to get surgery to fix it. Now I am all healed up and looking for my fur-ever home! I am very special as I have few quirks! First off, I'm not a very mobile cat, my foster has let staff know I have favorite place to sit and will typically only get up to eat, drink, and use the litter box. This is probably due to some of the side effects of being fold (See below). The second thing, I take a while to warm up to new people, so I could be considered a house "feral", however once I'm comfortable and in someone's arms I will be compliant.
I am bonded to my son Wild Remedy, who is an FIP survivor.
Scottish Folds are known to be affectionate and a great family cat, however like other cats it can be case by case on how a Scottish Fold behaves. It is important to understand that each cat is different! They do like to play, relax, and cuddle, so those interested should be ready for a fun furry companion.
Scottish Folds' unique features come from osteochondrodysplasia, which causes issues and abnormalities in joints, cartilage, and bone development. This is how the fold ears are possible in the Scottish Fold, which makes them cute, however this can cause early arthritis for these cats. There are other common health concerns that Scottish Folds experience, and this entry above addresses the most notable and common one.
