Ragdoll – Brunswick

Meet Kiwi, female, 1 years old. Her breed is Ragdoll X Domestic Medium Hair. Kiwi is a very chill Cat, she does engage with her siblings likes to run around with them. Kiwi loves to sit and relax on grass, she also loves to sit by a window and look at birds or just sleep on her back while the sun shines on her belly. Kiwi is a sensitive cat, she was born into our family and is really used to us and the kids, it will take her some time to adjust in a new home. She greets us when we come home by rolling over and meowing. she also loves to sleep on the bed with us. She likes attention, head scratches and belly rubs on the bed before she sleeps. Kiwi has recently been Microchipped, Vaccinated and Desexed. She is Litter trained, but sometimes has accidents when the litter box is full, she prefers clean litter box's. Her eating schedule is quite simple, she has breakfast around 8:30am, then lunch around 2pm and dinner around 8pm or later. I know kiwi is good around her siblings and mum and dad, but i don't know how she will be with dogs. it might take her a couple of days or weeks to get used to her new owner or any pets in the house. Kiwi is suitable for a family that have kids, or a single person or even a couple. she is not a violent cat, she is really sensitive and tends to get scared with loud noises. Cats tend to get attached to one person more than anyone else. It is normal if they hid and not eat for a couple of days, they just need time to adjust. price is negotiable please send us a txt on this number is interested 0432386057

Ragdoll – Burpengary

I unfortunately need to rehome my 3 month old Ragdoll female cat as I can no longer keep her where I am. She is a sweet and gentle kitten with a soft, affectionate nature, and is beginning to show her playful and curious personality. At this young age, she is still learning and developing, making it a great time for her to bond with a new family. She has been raised in a home environment and is becoming familiar with everyday sounds and interaction. She would suit a loving home that can provide time, care, and attention as she continues to grow. This is a difficult decision, and I am hoping to find her a safe and caring forever home.

Ragdoll – Lithgow

Simba is 3 years and 1 month old and is a purebred seal point Ragdoll with magnificent blue eyes. He has a very affectionate personality and loves nothing more than cuddles and gentle rubs under his chin. Simba enjoys being close to his people and thrives on attention, making him a loyal and loving companion. He is good with children, however we are looking to rehome him as we have a large family with five kids, and the busy environment can be a bit overwhelming for him. Simba would be best suited to a calmer household where he can relax, feel secure, and receive plenty of one-on-one attention. He will make a wonderful addition to the right home.

The Ultimate Ragdoll Guide

About Ragdoll

Ragdoll cats are well known for their friendly and good natured temperament. They cherish spending time with their humans and enjoy following them around the house. These intelligent felines can also be trained to perform tricks or walk on a leash.

Grooming

Grooming them regularly keeps their coat looking its best.

Origins

Originating from California in the 1960s, Ragdoll cats were bred by crossing Persian and Angora breeds.

Ann Baker, credited with their creation, discovered a white ‘Angora type’ cat named Josephine that consistently produced laid back and affectionate offspring.

Ann procured three of Josephine’s offspring and initiated a breeding program that led to the creation of the new Ragdoll breed, so named because of the cat’s tendency to go limp when picked up. 

Denny and Laura Dayton then bought one breeding pair of Ragdolls from Ann Baker, and in the 1970s, created the Ragdoll Genetic Chart and established the Ragdoll Society.

Key Characteristics Of Ragdolls

Are Ragdolls Family-Friendly?

Yes, Ragdoll kittens are typically known for being gentle and affectionate with people, which makes them great family pets.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

Ragdolls may suffer from:

Heart disease

Kidney disease

Hip dysplasia

A genetic condition where the hip joint forms improperly, leading to laxity, arthritis, and potentially causing pain and difficulty in movement.

Nature / Temperament

Playful, Affectionate and Docile

Suitable Environment

Ragdolls are typically adaptable to a variety of environments, as long as they have plenty of human interaction.

They do best in homes with at least one other person, as they enjoy companionship and love to be around people.

Other Considerations

● Ragdoll cats are not hypoallergenic.

● Ragdoll cats are described as ‘pointed.’ The body of the cat is a paler colour than the tips.

● Most Ragdoll cats are kept as indoor pets, as the breed is very gentle and may not be able to handle outdoor adventures on their own.

 

How can I take good care of my Ragdoll?

Nutrition

It’s important to provide Ragdoll kittens with a high quality diet, rich in protein and fat, since cats are carnivores and need meat based food. Make sure they have access to plenty of water for hydration.

For adult Ragdolls, it’s recommended to feed them scheduled meals instead of feeding them freely. It’s wise to consult your vet for advice about your cat’s specific needs though.

Grooming

Regular brushing is essential for maintaining the medium length fur of Ragdoll kittens and keeping it from matting and tangling.

Ragdoll cats and kittens should be groomed regularly to prevent mats and tangles in their long fur.

Exercise

Although Ragdolls are known for their laidback nature, it’s still important to ensure they get enough exercise to keep them healthy and happy.

They don’t require a lot of high energy exercise, but they do appreciate playtime now and then.

It’s essential to keep your Ragdoll cat mentally engaged with toys and puzzles.

A good rule of thumb is to offer them 10 to 15 minutes of playtime every day for each month of their age (up to 2 hours for an adult cat).

Training

Ragdoll cats are observant and relaxed, which makes training them relatively easy. Most Ragdoll kittens can be taught to use a litterbox and stay calm in a carrier from a very early age.

Regardless of your training objectives, it’s important to use positive reinforcement methods. Cats are sensitive creatures and may become unresponsive if scolded or harshly disciplined.

This is general information and should not be relied on for adopting or purchasing advice.

Most Asked Ragdoll Questions

Ragdoll kittens love to play with a variety of toys, including balls, feathers, and catnip toys.

Ensure that the toys are pet-safe and watch out for any bits that may break off and be swallowed by your cat, as they may block the digestive tract and cause issues.

Ragdoll kittens need plenty of human interaction and companionship to stay happy and healthy.

Providing them with toys and spending time playing with them each day will help keep them entertained.

If you are searching for a Ragdoll kitten for sale, it’s best to only deal with responsible breeders. A Ragdoll from an ethical breeder should have fewer health problems and have a predictable, gentle temperament. Ragdoll kittens will cost between AUD $1000 and $2000.
