When it comes to cats, Scottish Folds are immensely popular in Japan. Their trademark ears and perpetually confused expression are a big hit with fans of all things kawaii, so the internet is in love with Scottish Folds who bathe like they are in a hotspring, traditional Japanese snacks shaped like them, and even Scottish Fold lingerie. Given a recent episode of a cat being ultra-protective of a tissue box, it was only a matter of time before a pronunciation pun united Scottish Folds and tissue boxes.

While the pun works just as well in English, the "Scottissue" plays on how a Japanese person would pronounce the "Scottish" in "Scottish Fold", which elongates the "tish" into sounding almost exactly the same as "tissue." That's a good enough reason to make this adorable product in our opinion.
