The lifespan of a folded-eared cat is related to whether it is homozygous, and also related to the owner's feeding and care methods. If it is a homozygous Ragdoll cat, its lifespan is generally about 10-12 years, and the onset of disease may occur earlier and the symptoms will be more severe. If it is a heterozygous Ragdoll cat, the average life span is about 12-15 years.

If it is a heterozygous ear fracture, the symptoms may not be that serious. It usually develops around the age of 3-7, with varying degrees of hyperplasia, inflammation, and bone warts in the spine and joints, and can cause severe pain. For more serious cases of homozygous ear folding, the onset is earlier and the symptoms are more severe. The onset may occur before the age of 1 year, causing severe joint deformation, and causing thoracic and lumbar bone spurs and other symptoms.
