I have deleted the sentence, stating that the Fold has similar problems. The crippling effect, or
Osteochondrodysplasia in Scottish Fold cats as it is called in scientific literature, is not a similar effect, and it has nothing to do with a lethal factor.

I think, references and external links shall be neutral and shall not reflect any prevalence for any club or any organization.
Breeding councils are existing in many cat organizations and the listed BC is not the only one. Thus I suggest either to delete such a reference or to name also other BCs.
If clubs shall be referenced - which I'm not against, it gives a broader spectrum of opinions and information sources - then as many clubs as possible should be listed.
May be, you find that reference interesting:
The Beresford Club Cat shows are the most successful of any yet given in America. One hundred and seventy-eight prizes were awarded in the show of January, 1900, and some magnificent cats were shown. It is said by those who are in a position to know that there are no better cats shown in England now than can be seen at the Beresford Show in Chicago. The exhibits cover short and long haired cats of all colors, sizes, and ages, with Siamese cats, Manx cats, and Russian cats.
Chapter VII of
Helen M. Winslow's book Concerning Cats, published by Lothrop Publishing Co., Boston, 1900
Mrs. Clarke also owns a real Manx cat, brought from the Isle of Man by Captain McKenzie. It acts like a monkey, climbing up on mantels and throwing down pictures and other small objects, in the regular monkey spirit of mischief. It has many queer attributes, and hops about like a rabbit.
Chapter VIII of the above mentioned book.

Many Manx have special needs. Most require patience, healthy diets, & love. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.230.22.50 ( talk) 14:43, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
I've recently retrieved a litter of kittens in my garden, and specifically one of the four kittens seemed to have a much shorter tail, it doesn't seem to be amputated, it just seems naturally short, and its legs are quite longer than usual, but his other fellow littermates don't really have those features, btw I'm from the Philippines if it helps.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.2.106.215 ( talk) 12:57, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
Can someone please verify this, because it is counter-intuitive so the burden should be on the one claiming it to find a source. Thanks Eugene-elgato ( talk) 19:13, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
I think you guys should add on to this page, (I have no clue on HTML) But things I noticed with my cat They get
They are very frendy, My cat was named buddy, and he was just like a dog, he would bring ball's back, —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.51.182.52 ( talk) 06:59, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
