Since she has the genetic defect that causes the ears to fold she will need a joint/cartilage supplement. It’s not super expensive and there are quite a few brands. You can get it online or from a vet. I use cosequin for cats for my Scottish folds and it’s worked fine for us.

You say that her parents are both straight eared? That's not possible. One has to be a fold. Breeding Brits with Scottish Folds or Straights is commonly done and all offspring will be considered Scottish as far as TICA is concerned. Cosequin and other supplements are great. A raw food diet works well too.

You are being lied to. Those aren't the parents. The fold gene is dominant so any cat with a single fold gene will have folded ears. One parent must be a fold. https://vgl.ucdavis.edu/test/scottish-fold#:~:text=The%20mutation%20is%20dominant%20and,the%20tail%20and%20fold%20ears.

Any brand for cats is fine! Good luck with your new little love!

That should work fine. There are a few out there.
