Scottish Fold, I think.
It's a Scotty lop-eared there in the picture. And Folds - if my memory serves me correctly - are also Scottish, but straight-eared. They are born 50/50, as they are crossed with regular cats to get rid of their breed defects. I have a Scottish lop-eared on my avatar. Leo :))
 
Lenin really did foresee the course of history. There are still photographs of him on Red Square leading a subbotnik to clear the ground for the Mausoleum.

It just translates as bend, crease, fold... Scottish Fold is a Scottish lop.

Eh... old age... it's all gone out of my head. Can't remember my own cat's name... But they also have some straight-eared ones, too lazy to look up the name - I'm lazy today...

Actually, there's a hell of a lot more to it. These Scots are descended from English ones, those from backyard farms...

Found a straight-eared one, it's Scottish Straight.

Yes, you can get confused :)

Yeah, could be confused :)

Well, yeah, they look British. And plush, too. The breed was bred by accident. A Scotsman found a cat somewhere with lop ears and that was that. They didn't want to be on the official breed list at first.

The interesting thing about them is they're clever chickens... Sometimes I think they have the beginnings of intelligence... but that's my personal prejudice against my pet cat. Their habits are not catlike in the usual sense of the word. There's a lot of dogs and monkeys in there, too. Sometimes it is amazing how they make up puzzle games for themselves. In short, they are funny little people. :)
