Anyone Own a Scottish Fold?

Hi all.
I'm about to lose my cat soon due to a number of different illnesses including Kidney Disease. He's 17 years old and quite a fighter.

Anyway, after the grieving process is over and I've spent some time celebrating the life of my sweet cat, I planned to get a scottish fold kitten. Usually I get my animals from the pound but I i said that just once in my lifetime I would love to get a scottish fold kitten due to their incredibly sweet and loving disposition....

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone here has bought a Scottish Fold and can recommend a reputable breeder? I'm in the Northern California area......
I know they are pricy, but I've been saving for awhile...Also, it doesn't have to be a folded ear.

I have a Scottish Fold, but I'm located in Finland so can't give any cattery recommendations. Good breed choice though.

If you have difficulties in finding one, you could consider a British Shorthair if the folded ears indeed aren't necessary? They pretty much look like Scottish Straights with minor differences, as foldies are (usually) bred with a Brit in every generation to avoid health issues related to the Fd-gene. BSHs are very charming too. (My own BSH stud is my Scottish Fold's father).

Sorry to hear about your current cat. And welcome to the forum!

I'm sorry to read about your cat

You could ask the people on the breeders forum about Scottish Folds
