Ragdoll Angels

If you are a first time buyer this may assist you in finding a good ” GENUINE”  ragdoll kitten

this is merely my opinion every breeder has their own view

The reason I have decided to post this for you is too often potential prospective buyers question me about what other breeders have said , or what they have read .

It is great to do your home work , but too often one may have information over load and get confused .

This is what I would and do look for , my priority is always character , I like to see and imagine how a kitten may turn out later when it is a cat .

The second thing I look for is the environment and surroundings they have been raised in .

I would want to feel the surroundings are clean , safe and happy , I am totally against caged raised kittens , this is just me , and this is why I do not believe or think cage raised kittens are good pets :

kittens are curious and always learning , most people want to take their kitten into their home and make it part of their household and family straight away  right ?

A kitten that is raised in the home becomes familiar with daily life  such as television noises , doors which open and shut and as with mine I am able to train them to be house friendly ,  I have opportunity to not allow them to wreck my furniture and show them to use a scratch poles ,  allow them to have hugs and play in the evenings etc , this builds confidence and character in them .

By not caging the kittens and allowing them human interaction this assists you greatly when you take your kitten home , it will settle in faster .

Now when you come to see me you will see a cage , but the cage is only used for when I need time out and they get in my way , sometimes it is difficult to mop and sweep floors with all these curious little darlings trying to help , and I do cage them if I am out for a full day for their own safety , but I avoid doing this as much as possible .

If the ragdoll is ugly then it is probably not a ragdoll  , I have never come across an ugly looking ragdoll , however I had doubts when I have seen so called ragdolls in pet shops , and I have seen many in photos advertised which I simply thought were not authentic .

Your ragdoll kitten should always have bright blue eyes , and there is something about them where they have that really cute teddy bear look in their face , a nice round fluffy type face .

The eyes should always look clear and bright , if the fur is matted or dirty there is something not right , the mum is not cleaning them or they are stressed for some reason .

Do not be enchanted by breeders who say they have just treated the kitten for fleas , instead  question why did the kitten have fleas in the first place ?

I don’t know if I have been simply just plane old fashioned lucky , but my kittens and cats have never had fleas , I figured clean bedding and flea collars on all my cats just before summer does the trick .

Don’t expect the kitten to run up to you and fall in love there and then , kittens are busy little bees learning to play and curious about everything and have short attention spans ,

they are adventurous , curious and always learning ,

they don’t really want to leave their home and siblings ,

but you will see as soon as your kitten works out you are the one that is going to feed it and play with it , and it works out that is safe with you  and can trust you , it will bond quickly ,

this usually happens in only a couple of days .

please don’t buy your kitten from a pet shop

most breeders know their kittens and put a lot of work into them ,

if you buy your kitten from a pet shop you will know very little about it , you will not be able to view the parents and speak to the breeder .

My kittens which will be potentially yours are raised with love and care , they are part of my family and become part of yours , it is in my interest to sell happy well adjusted kittens and have happy buyers .

please avoid unregistered breeders

breeders who choose to be registered do so because they have a reputation to uphold , they work under certain expected guidelines , they can provide you with a pedigree which will show you the parentage , for those who do not know , a pedigree is only a bit of paper , but the paper is a bit like a birth certificate , you know something about the kitten’s family and past .

and do not suck in for the wording ” PURE BREED ” yes the kitten should be pure breed any way , but if your breeder is unable to provide the pedigree for the so called pure breed it may not be an authentic ragdoll .

If you want a real authentic ragdoll please go to a real registered breeder ,

it doesn’t have to be me ,

we love our ragdolls we want you to experience the joy of owning a real ragdoll
