Dating to 1961, the Scottish Fold is a recent edition to the world of domestic cats. Discovered in a Scottish farm barn, the breed's founding mother had ears folded down and forward, hence the breed name. Scottish Fold posters capture this breed's signature trait exquisitely. The distinctive ears derive from an incomplete dominant gene, the result of a spontaneous mutation.
