RAGDOLLS ARE TRULY ONE A KIND
Ragdolls are incredibly sweet and affectionate from the start. They need tons and tons of attention and they demand it. My Ragdolls climb onto me, nuzzle their face against mine, purr nonstop and spend the night velcroed to me on the bed. If you sit down in our house at least one cat will be sat on your lap within 3 minutes. Their personality? Remarkably laid back with a dog-like nature that’s quite unusual for a cat, one of my Ragdolls is currently “helping” me type by snuggling next to me and pawing at my keyboard. Productivity? What’s that?!
What should you know? Males are significantly larger ranging from 12 to 20 pounds and females can weigh from 8 to 15 pounds. It can take up to 4 years for a Ragdoll to reach mature size. They are intelligent and playful and thrive on stimulation from toys and playtime. Ragdolls are gentle floofs, loving, needy, and may have hearty appetites. Bathe and comb at least every 8-10 weeks. I recommend a good metal comb and slicker brush.
The fun stuff nobody tells you? That solo bathroom trips are a thing of the past. That even when theirs two, you’re the focus of their attention . That Ragdolls possess unique and pronounced personalities, they are stubborn and strong willed when they want to be. That you don’t own a raggie, the raggie owns you. If you’ve got two you’re going to need a bigger lap. That they do play fetch. That after sharing your life with a Ragdoll, the thought of living without one is unthinkable.

OUR PRECIOUS DOLLS
A FEW THOUGHTS
Our cats produce an absurd amount of fluff. I feel like half my time at home is removing cat hair! So get accustomed to fur covered clothes and maintain your lint roller and vacuum. Combing can help prevent matting and expensive grooming bills if things were to get out of control. Make combing a relaxing ritual and bonding time. Just be mindful of your Ragdolls limits.
Keep in mind that all cats have claws, and declawing is inhuman and harmful. . Declawed cats often develop litter box issues, walking difficulties, and personality problems. However, with proper training, cats can learn to use their claws responsibly. It’s essential to consider whether you’re comfortable with this aspect of cat ownership. It’s crucial to prioritize your cat’s well-being and find alternative solutions to address clawing concerns. Get your kitten used to having it’s paws and belly touched to make nail trimming easier. Start trimming early to avoid scratching issues.
Ragdolls’ long hair around their back legs needs attention, and neglected litter boxes can lead to unwelcome dingle berries. Commit to daily scooping to reduce these pesky hitchhikers!
Ragdolls are so ridiculously docile. If they’re doing something they shouldn’t and you yell to stop, they’re completely unfazed. No flinching, no scurrying away. Just a casual glance like “yeah, I’m still gonna do this”. But every cat has their own personality, some Ragdolls are well behaved and some are troublemakers. You may have a Ragdoll that craves constant cuddles and snuggles, and another that prefers occasional pets and solo time. Just like people every Ragdoll is uniquely shaped by their own personality, quirks, and characteristics. Energy levels fluctuate, curiosity levels vary, and vocalization ranges. Each Ragdoll is special and loveable. That’s all I’ve got for now. Buckle up for a fun fluffy ride!
