So what are Ragdolls like?

So why are our kittens so special?

This all began 17 years ago with a friend giving us two ragdolls to look after while she underwent treatment. Unable to risk being scratched she sent her girls to us to look after - unaware that kittens were on the horizon. Soon Bonnie and Comfort were looking a little bigger, then a lot bigger, and soon the innocent mewling of kittens filled the house. It was a life changing experience, and one we fell in love with. We were instantly enamoured with their looks and their unique temperament. So when our friend needed us to take the rest of her cats, we happily obliged! Starting off her entire boy Sonny, and his friend Kira.

We learned as quickly as we could - and had a lot of help along the way from breeders who would become the dearest of friends.

Ragdolls are an incredibly unique breed with a long and illustrious history in the cat fancy. Starting in America in the 1960s, they soon spread to the UK and were made famous for their unique temperament and stunning good looks. While on the surface they may appear to be similar to ragamuffins, Persians, Birmans, and other 'pointed' breeds, they are actually quite unique. Their almond shaped eyes, refined faces, smaller ears, and variety of patterning distinguishes them visually - of which traits are common in the traditional line and are what we seek to preserve. Most importantly though is the temperament. They are some of the most gregarious, sociable, handleable and relaxed breeds around. This relaxed nature means they are very rarely stressed but also not suited to being outdoors as they won't think to run away from danger. In the home environment this means they are also slower to mature and longer lived. Our oldest boy, Bo, who we sadly lost recently was 21 years old when he passed away.

Obviously we think our Ragdolls are the best in the world, but here's why we think they are a cut above the rest. Firstly, all of our cats are what are known as traditional ragdolls, they can trace their lineage right back to the very first ragdolls with no outbreeding to other breeds. This means they are very 'typey' and follow that unique look, but also that they have the temperament that ragdolls are famous for. They are friendly, attention seeking, playful, and very closely bonded. Almost like a dog in a cats body! Secondly, our kittens are fed on only the best complete diets growing up - as are our adults. They receive a great deal of care and socialisation growing up in our own home; they are litter trained, wormed and flea treated regularly, receive both of their primary vaccinations and are microchipped before they leave. Doing this ensures that they are a little older, a little more independent, and ready to form new bonds with owners without risking immature behaviour that comes from leaving mum too soon.
