Scottish Short Hair temperament
The Scottish Shorthair is the straight-eared progeny of the Scottish Fold. Much like the Scottish Folds, the Scottish Shorthair is a gentle, quiet breed. Not an active cat, the Scottish Shorthair is calm and placid in nature, making them ideally suited for indoor life. A good apartment breed, the Scottish Shorthair is not overly demanding, or vocal, and will enjoy a peaceful life with their owner. They are well suited to quieter households.
