What kind of cat?

[SammyCat]

I always wondered what kind of cat this was? It has very very tiny ears. Does it ever grow? It's really cute too.

Does anyone also know of any cats that say small like a kitten for life? I know of dogs that are minature.

Looks like a Scottish Fold (the ears stay folded down). Funny you should ask, because one of our members Sirrahbed is in the process of trying to adopt one of these precious kitties!

Sure looks like a Scottish Fold to me.

I don't think you can get a 'toy' cat like you can get a toy poodle and some other dogs. The Munkin cat, though, has shorter legs than most cats and I've heard they don't get very big.

My mum has a cat that is three or four years old, very healthy but still the size of a half-grown kitten. Pitty is just a regular kitty but the vet says she's probably not going to get much bigger. She's healthy though and that's what counts!

I think with kittens, its the luck of the draw, and how well nourished they were early on. My little Abby will forever be little, but her littermate Harry is HUGE. She's almost half his size and always will be a kitten sized cat.
