One of the strangest cats in the world is the LaPerm, a breed originally from Oregon, USA, named due to its characteristic 

 (as if they had had a "perm"). The first LaPerm cat was born female and hairless, but after a few months it developed a silky, curly coat due to a mutation produced by a dominant gene.

Likewise, this problem can also trigger arthritis in them and, although many proponents believe that if the Scottish fold crosses American shorthair or British shorthair this does not happen, the British Veterinary Association argued that all cats with bent ears suffer from this mutation.
