Colorpoint Scottish Folds are extremely rare, and quite controversial in the cat fancy. They have long been accepted
for championship competition by CFF, TICA, and CCA. In fact, our colorpoint folds were instrumental in getting this
unique color-pattern accepted in both CFF and TICA. In CFA, pointed folds are not allowed, and are not registerable, presuming
the color is a result of direct hybridization to other breeds (Himalayans, Siamese, Birmans, etc) to attain this
color.
Colorpoint Scottish Folds, are a natural occuring phenomenon. Since the early days of the breed, folds were bred
to any unrelated cat to insure its genetic diversity. Some of those cats were taken from shelters, and many of those
cats carried the colorpoint gene. Since our lines are directly descended from those cats, colorpoints often appear in
our litters. The gene often remains hidden appearing only occasionally in random litters.
Colorpoint folds are beautiful, with the dark points dramatizing the folded ears.
