im jealous of seeing people having ragdoll cat as their pet… i really want one but they're really pricey… yes people say 'adopt, dont shop' but in my country, it's impossible to have this cat without shop… ragdoll cat always feel like an unattainable dream to me ㅠㅠ

I’m getting a Ragdoll kitten she is a blue lynx point Ragdoll I named her Taylor after Taylor Swift and she’s going to be my emotional support animal since dogs are completely useless at that job as all they do is go around and be friends with every person they meat and to animal friendly however cats are much better as they are more likely to pay attention to there person nobody else or any other pets but if they live in there house they know who to be around and who not to be

Where did you purchase the cat tree with branches and leaves??

They don't meow a lot?

dont care GIMME THE CAT I WANT IT

What are breakers supposed to do with kittens with the heart gene? Shouldn’t they be neutered and rehomed with disclosure?

I was searching for an appropriate name for my female seal-point lynx kitten. I eventually decided that since they're an offshoot of the Siamese breed, and Siam's the old name for Thailand (which is a primarily Buddhist society) I would call her Maya. Maya's was the name of the Buddha's mother, and I never could have believed at the time how perfect is would be for her! I broke up with my partner at the time – and there was never a question over who'd end up with our serene ball of fluff. Maya had clearly chosen me as her hooman, and rarely left my side. (As painful a decision as it must have been for Kam) Since then I've been through a few horrible relationships with highly narcissistic women, and recently lost my mother (who wasn't terribly nice herself, and left me with PTSD for abandonment as a child) and Maya's always been there to pull me through the hard times. I often find myself in tears thinking that I don't deserve her! She hates both my phone and PC, because they take some attention away from her. LOL! She's simply a gorgeous kitteh inside and out!

Extremely devoted and caring, she's often fussing over me. (So much that I often call her chookie – because, well, mother hen!) She's always by my side – or glaring at my phone and PC from s nearby chair because, well, already stated. The breeder once told me that I was to become a 'raggie slave' and she was SO right. Maya tries to do everything with me. Being horribly afraid of water she also shows gorgeous bravery whenever I take a bath, and stands up on the side of it as if to say "are you sure you're all right?" I've had little real social interaction since my mother passed, and invested some of the inheritance on some things for Maya… A new cat fountain and automated feeder, I spread some "cat balls" (gall fruit) around my house, and got her a bunch of new toys.She's always walking up immediately after using them, as if to thank me for being so thoughtful.

Her most gorgeous routine is that every night when I go to bed, Maya comes and 'asks' to be let under the covers. As soon as she can wriggle down underneath, she curls up pressed into the "little spoon" position and falls happily into a deep sleep. Amazingly she doesn't move a muscle until I get up the following morning, upon which she's extremely affectionate and loving. (After eating some nibbles) I can honestly say that the only downside I've found yet, is that Maya just recently turned 12, and it's started me thinking that she won't be with me forever. It's already the the source of deep regret, during which she always comes over to try "fix me" by licking me to death! I know that I'm going to be devastated beyond compare on losing her – I really don't know how I'll ever cope with it. I honestly wanted a dog, but so far she's been my life's best decision! She even stunned me when she started playing fetch as only a baby. As if simply instinctively knowing what I wanted, she'd 'kill' a toy mousie and trot over to place it proudly in my hand!

If you're on the fence about getting a Ragdoll – just do it! Long after you've forgotten the costs involved, they'll still be giving you more daily laughs and affection than anything in the world – even a real hooman! It will undoubtedly take me a long time to get over the loss, but having watched a few of your videos and seeing how famously Teemo and Arya get along, I'm thinking that one day I might have to get a pair – just not until long after Maya has passed. I believe that learning to share me at a senior age will only repay all of the kindness she's shown me with breaking her heart… She's given me only the best of her (is there really a worst?) and deserves only the best of me in return!

That cat tree! 😍 Did you create that yourself?
