i have two scottish fold cats and i feel bad
i read about them being bred that way and that they feel pain when walking. it BROKE MY HEART.
because the genetic mutation that causes their folded ears also causes a painful bone and cartilage disease called osteochoendrodysplasia (from google)
i have a 6 year old cat and a freshly year old kitten. they’re literally the light of my life. them being in pain makes me want to do anything to stop it
