Care Tips
from Dr. Jessica Greenberg, Associate VeterinarianProvide your Scottish Fold with a clean space to roam.
A clean environment, proper nutrition, and adequate living space are important for a Scottish Fold cats. Folds do not like to be confined to small cages, so adequate steps must be taken to provide space for the cat. -GailWolfe,DVM
Get key health screenings for early detection.
Scottish Folds should be given regular veterinary exams to screen for conditions they are genetically prone to developing. These include orthopedic problems, kidney disease, heart disease, and ear problems. -GailWolfe,DVM
Provide adequate litter boxes.
Scottish Folds are prone to developing calcium oxalate urinary crystals. Encouraging drinking by allowing access to water in multiple areas in the home is helpful to dilute the urine. Some Folds may even enjoy a water fountain. For all cats, we should use the "Golden Rule of Litter Boxes" to encourage frequent urination: provide one more box than the number of cats in the home. -StacyChoczynski,DVM
