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.

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.

Keep your Scottish Fold safe by using pet-safe products and keeping your home tidy. Air fresheners can’t replace a clean litter box—if your cat’s stool smells off, consult your vet. A clean, safe environment keeps your kitten healthy and happy!

Start your Scottish Fold kitten with the same litter they used at the cattery, then transition gradually to your preferred type over 7–10 days. Provide one litter box per cat plus one extra, placed in quiet, accessible spots. Scoop 3–4 times daily and fully clean weekly with a vet-safe disinfectant. For adults, Arm & Hammer Clump & Seal works well; for kittens, soft, low-dust pelletized bedding is ideal.
