    We solved the hair problem this way: knowing cats love a routine, our long haired cat is fed only at sunset (which brings him home & he’s locked in overnight till dawn) and he is brushed before being fed. It only takes 2/3 minutes, tops. He now knows the routine - brush first, eat second. Every night. Fur on floor & furniture: minimal.

    That works! Yes they do like routine. Good plan I'm glad it works. Yes, I notice a difference in the amount of fur floating around when they are brushed more often.

    I have had Ragdolls for 17 years and currently have 3. I have found the best way to combat the fur around my home is spend money on getting a Dyson (Animal). Sometimes I leave the Dyson out and plugged and ready. I also have a Dyson handheld that I only use for tapestry - bed, sofa and fabric surfaces - that has the wide tapestry tool. It’s amazing how much fur and dust that handheld sucks from the bed and sofa. I also have pet beds or throws that have a slippery surface on the sofa to minimize the fur. And I have dramatically reduced black from my wardrobe. 😁

    Exam gloves (that you can buy in the drugstore wound care section) are magnets for cat hair. Since it's a glove, it's easy to get into crevices with your fingers or mold your hand around the edge of a cushion, etc. And when you are done, just pull it off, inside-out, and toss it.

Nursed from same mother as one litter was 3 kittens, one was 6 and the Momma couldn't keep up, so the breeder moved a few to the other nursing Mamma who accepted them. So mine nursed from same Momma.:)

    I just got a retired three-year-old male stud from a breeder yesterday! I am so excited to have rescued him... I am not saying the breeder missed treated him, because he is extremely loving and affectionate, but he is in rough shape. He is so incredibly thin, has lots of large areas with no fur (i’m thinking it’s from that flea collar, flea medication, or just being kept in the cattery where I’m sure it was very hot 🥵). He has a good appetite, normal P and poop, and nice bright clear eyes. He has let me brush him and pet him everywhere and anywhere. I am keeping him in an upstairs bedroom and bathroom area for a while because I have a four-year-old female snowshoe agdoll mix who has been the queen of the castle for three years! I will do a very slow introduction. I have been bringing items with his scent on it downstairs for her to smell… Hiss, hiss, hiss! I go upstairs and spend time with him… It’s hard when I leave him and he is crying. When I am upstairs with him, my female is downstairs crying for me! Talk about being torn! Love my Dyson vacuum cleaners! They get used every day. And my female, Roxy, loves to be brushed. Between brushing, vacuuming, and lint brushes, cats are still easier than children! LOL 😝

    A rubber kitchen glove can get ragdoll hair off of clothes. The reason ragdoll fur seems like it’s so plentiful is because it’s so lightweight and floofy. So, when you use a lint brush, etc, it just floats into the air. Use a furniture velvet type then the rubber glove or damp washcloth.

The thing i learned and would like to hear is: A Ragdoll cat should ALWAYS be an indoor cat because of their personality. They seem to have no fight or flight gene. Which is why I recommend indoor only. What kind of litter do you use? I am a huge proponent of the Equine Bedding.

She is about a 9 yo rescue that I have had 6 years. She converted to the Equine pellets very easily. I just sprinkled some used kitty litter in the first use of the pellets and she never looked back.😃 There are 2 things I don't like. (1) She still manages to "kick" some pellets out of the box. So, in the middle of the night bathroom visits can really wake a person up, but not as painful as stepping on a LEGO, 😁. (2) is the 40lbs of pellets I have to schlep from my car. I'm a young senior and live alone. My last visit to Tractor Supply, the cashier thought the pellets came in 20lb bags. But with one kitty a $6.00 bag last about 6-7 months.

    He looks so much like my 3year old purebred Ragdoll “Ragnar”. He is fed on Royal Canin Veterinary Dental dry food. And Whiskas Chicken in Gravy Assorted wet food, the only wet food he will eat. He has a beautiful coat and only a few matts where he can’t reach. Does not shed much. I have finally found a brush he will tolerate. Similar to yours it has a push button at the back which brings the front forward and the fur can be easily lifted off. I am his 3rd career and I have had him 2 years now. I am in contact with his first career and breeder but unfortunately she developed a severe allergy and broke her heart to part with him.

    I feed my a raw diet, which consists of a balanced mix of muscle meat, bone and organ meat. I switch up the type of meat they eat regularly. They get different game birds, rabbit, chicken, turkey, beef (not often). Their all time favourite is rabbit. They go crazy for it! You could try a little plain raw meat to see how your little guy does with it, not as a regular diet because there isn't enough nutrition in plain meat, but just to see how he does with it. I'd suggest giving him a little raw turkey if you're able. I'll be posting videos on diet suggestions soon, or you can find food articles on the website too. www.RagdollLove.com

    My boy Zanda actually learned to enjoy a soft brush that attaches to my vaccume so we use a brush like the one you had, and during times he is shedding we occasionally clip the brush onto the vaccume. A lot of people say not to do it, but he enjoys it and as I have a Dyson cordless I can turn the suction pressure down. He is nearly 5yo, and this year we have noticed his mane is so long he has trouble cleaning it, so he has a mane brush serveral times a day, its so so long as he licks it it gets stuck in his mouth, part of me feels like I should trim it but I hate the idea of him not being natural, any thoughts? Thanks for the vids new subscriber ☺

    Hello RagdollLove, I hope you dont mind me asking some ragdoll advice if you can't I understand, I bought a female 2 year old Ragdoll cat from a breeder she had just been desexed two weeks prior to pick up all good, I have now had her nearly a month and she is still severely nervous and frightened when out of her comfort zone she has been so stressed she had blood in her urine I took her to the vet etc she is getting better but my question is after a month and no better with stress or confidence would you say she will ever settle, I am seriously thinking of taking her back but I am attached to her as she is sweet in herself I am wondering if this is normal behaviour at this age, my household is normal just my husband and me, I would love to hear your opinion if you are comfortable with it kindest regards Noeline

    Hi. My cats are given a 100% raw diet, a balanced blend of muscle meat, bone and organ, specifically formulated for cats. I buy a good selection of about 8-10 different blends and rotate them, to avoid allergies and boredom. Makes their fur spectacular.

    I no longer make my food. I'm in Canada and I buy Big Country Raw. They have lots of blends especially for the needs of cats. I've been buying this brand for 2.5 years now and am quite happy with the results. Easy to serve up and store too. I find it cost effective, as they need so little of it.

    Sounds like your Ragdoll lacks EFA in the diet. Here's an article on my blog which talks about the coat of the Ragdoll and various issues with their coat. ragdolllove.com/ragdoll-coat.html You'll find a link for an excellent quality fish oil about half way down on the page. It should take care of the dander. This is usually an indication of lacking essential fatty acids. It is not cheap but cat's don't get this fat in their diet and it is much needed. What do you feed your cat?

    Yes, it's not my favourite quality of theirs! Consistent brushing (at least a few times per week) and fish oil in their food, = less shedding. I've noted a significant difference from the Ragdolls I have now to my last ones (in the shedding dept) and the difference I believe is the added fish oil to their diet.

    My 5 year old blue mitted lynx just suddenly started acquiring mass amounts of mats. He gets full on grooming with a groomer regularly (about every 2 months) and I brush him a few times a week, however coronavirus backed up the groomer. I think have them under control now, but unfortunately when you push his coat back in a few places reveals small bald spots. I know it will grow back, but it breaks my heart my love has had a coat issue. Just a tip: a sanitary trim in the private area helps to keep their pantaloons from getting messy in litter. Question: Do you trim the tufts on your Rqgdolls feet?? My Ragdoll is my absolute best friend. He is always with me!🥰

    My Ragdoll, Clancy, is dear but does not like to be picked up. She likes being near us but not on us. She will perch on one of her her 4 cat trees. (I know, it’s excessive) when she is in the mood, she will jump on the foot of my recliner and allow me to pet her head and rub her ears. She stays just out of reach of being able to pick her up. She will eat a few cat treats and then jump down. Once in a while I can get her to play with a laser or a feather toy. But after 2 or 3 minutes, she is done and seems to enjoy watching me continue to play. We have a ritual in the morning. She jumps on the bed and lets my husband and me pet her a bit and eats treats. If I am too slow with the treats, she taps my hand with her paw. I have a 7 mo old Goldendoodle.puppy who tries to engage her. She lets him sniff her and sometimes lick her ears, but if he pushes too far, she will wack him a few quick times on the nose. He gets the message.

    Agree. Although the cat was not "harmed", it was clearly annoyed. As the video went on, the cat clearly communicated it wanted to be let go of, and I got frustrated seeing him getting more and more upset. Maybe next time you could sit down and talk to the camera with the cat moving around freely? Much easier to get a good look of it, how it moves and behaves, than when it is held up. I get wanting to show the "ragdoll" effect, but you needn't hold it for 10 minutes to get that point across. A well made and informative video, but the not letting the cat down made it increasingly awkward to watch. Thank you.
