This is the homesite of Amber Snow Cattery, Scottish folds. I have been a Scottish fold breeder since my first year of medical school in 1994. I am now a full time physician and show these lovely cats! I pride myself on healthy, sweet kittens. I have had many Grand Champions, Regional Winners and Breed Winners, however the greatest joy I have comes not from winning. . .but from loving these gorgeous and unique creatures! Mesmerizing, aren't they?
I am located in Georgia and have Scottish fold kittens for sale at various times throughout the year for both show and pet in most all colors, short or longhair. I also use British Shorthairs in my lines and may occasionally have a few British Shorthair kittens as well!
I show mainly in the Cat Fancier's Association. I'm a voting member of the 2010 CFA Breed Council for both British Shorthair and Scottish Fold breeds and am the CFA BC Secretary for Scottish folds for the duration of 1/1/2009-12/31/2010. I'm also a member of the International Scottish Fold Association.
The Scottish fold is a medium cat with a rounded, well-padded body and a short, dense, and resilient coat. It has large, round, broadly spaced eyes full of sweetness; well-rounded whisker pads and a short nose with a gentle curve in profile.
The following is general information on the Scottish fold breed and was written by one of the first American Scottish Fold breeders and well-respected cat show judge, Kitty Angel. . .
In 1961 a shepherd by the name of William Ross spotted the first known Scottish Fold cat at a farm near Coupar Angus in the Tayside Region of Scotland, Northwest of Dundee. Ross asked the owners if he could have one of the kittens, and proceeded to develop the breed from the original, Susie, a white barn cat. The unique thing about this cat was that her ears folded forward and downward on her head. The resulting look gave the impression of a ?pixie?, ?owl?, or ?teddy bear? that has captured the hearts of many American cat fanciers and judges. The Scottish Fold was granted championship status by The Cat Fanciers? Association (CFA) in 1978.
Scottish Fold kittens are born with straight ears. At about three to four weeks of age, their ears fold...or they don?t! It is usually around eleven to twelve weeks of age that the breeder can determine the quality (pet, breeder or show). Presently, only folded ear cats of Scottish lineage are permitted in the show ring, and naturally, every breeder wants to produce show cats. The straight ear progeny of Scottish Folds, nevertheless, are invaluable to the breeding program.
Due to the rarity of the Fold, AND due to the fact that not every kitten born has folded ears, it is very hard for the supply to keep up with the demand.
Scottish Folds are hardy cats, much like their barnyard ancestors. Their disposition matches their sweet expression. They have tiny voices and are not extremely vocal. They adore human companionship and display this in their own quiet way. Scottish Folds adapt to almost any home situation and are as comfortable in a room full of noisy children and dogs as they are in a single person?s dwelling. They don?t usually panic at shows or in strange hotel rooms, and they adjust to other animals extremely well.
