How Much Do Scottish Fold Kittens Cost? The Real Difference Between Ethical and Backyard Breeders
Ever wonder why Scottish Fold kittens from ethical breeders cost more? 🐾 It’s not just about looks or pedigree—it’s about everything that goes into raising a healthy, happy kitten. Ethical breeders invest in DNA testing, vaccinations, early spay/neuter, and round-the-clock care to prevent health issues like osteochondrodysplasia. They also spend hours every day socializing kittens so they grow into confident, loving companions. The price reflects the quality of care—not just today, but for your kitten’s entire life. 💛
Why Kittens Should Stay with Their Breeder, Mom, and Siblings Until 3 Months Old
Responsible breeders, like PurrfectlyFold, keep kittens with their mother and littermates until 12–16 weeks to ensure they grow healthy, confident, and well-socialized. This time helps them develop strong immune systems, learn proper behavior, and adjust smoothly to their new homes.
In this post, we explain why the wait is worth it for Scottish Fold and Scottish Straight kittens—and for their future families.
