Which cat breed is right for you?
The Scottish Fold traces its origins to a single barn cat named Susie, found in Perthshire, Scotland, in 1961 — the first documented cat with the breed's signature forward-folding ears caused by a natural cartilage mutation. This medium-sized cat weighs 6–13 pounds, has a round head, large round eyes, and a stocky, well-padded body. Scottish Folds come in both longhair and shorthair varieties, in virtually every color and pattern including tabby, solid, bicolor, and calico.
Scottish Folds are sweet, easygoing cats known for their quirky habit of sitting in odd positions — including the "Buddha sit" with legs stretched out and paws resting on their belly. They are moderately active and enjoy interactive play without being hyperactive. Gentle with children and amiable with other pets, they adapt well to most living situations.

The Serengeti was developed in the 1990s by conservation biologist Karen Sausman in California, who crossed Bengal and Oriental Shorthair cats to create a breed that mimics the appearance of the African serval without any wild blood. Weighing 8–15 pounds, this tall, long-legged cat has large, round-tipped ears set high on the head, a long neck, and a short, dense coat in spotted tabby patterns — typically gold with bold black spots, though silver and smoke variations also exist.
Serengetis are confident, active cats that love to climb, run, and explore. They are remarkably vocal, producing a range of chirps, chatters, and loud meows to communicate. Social and outgoing, they bond strongly with their families and get along well with children and other cats, though they can be bossy with more timid feline companions.
