Upright Kitten

This cute kitten is just playing, but he looks like he wants to be Maneki Neko! If that makes no sense to you, see the earlier post Seven Strange Lucky Charms. -via Arbroath
Watching japanese videos of kitty cats makes me think how some people think all asians eat cats.
He looks like he is a Scottish Fold. they have the ears folded close to the head where the American Curl just has the tops of the ears curling over.
Those ears are awefull. I wonder what they had to do in order to breed those cats and I doubt it was animal-friendly.
The ears require a little extra care, but it’s not a particularly nasty affliction or anything.
To avoid further degradation of the cartilage, Scottish Folds are only bred with Scottish Short-hairs (the same breed, just without the mutation) and you get 50% with the fold and 50% without.
Folded ears don’t seem so bad as compared to the stumpy little legs of the munchkin cats.
