Actually because of them not having an undercoat they can be considered hypoallergenic. Some people are allergic to the dander they produce while others are allergic to the protein in their saliva. If the person knows they are allergic to just the dander these cats are perfect for them, that's the case with my dad. We own two :)

Are there any personality differences between the male and females? I’m thinking of getting one for my mom. I had to leave my rescue cat at her house due to getting hospitalized out of state. I then ended up staying here, so it’s been months. Now she is bonded, but I want my kitty back. 😢 She’s pretty much an unofficial emotional support cat. She’s extraordinarily emotionally tuned in. She helped me through grief after my friend passed away. She never left my side, even “beating me up” to do something when I was staying too long in bed and wallowing. It’s like she knew. When I was severely sick with flu, she give me space, but came up and sniffed me every couple of hours. Made me feel like I had a guardian lol. Very special cat. My mom never even liked cats before lol.

Hah. Our 2-year-old ragdoll Leon is super energetic and was never happy just sitting at home. We've been going on several-kilometer harness walks with him since he was only a kitten. Even a 5-kilometer jog doesn't tire him out. He most definitely demands A LOT of exercise. Thankfully, we were of the thought of regularly going outside with our kitties but I didn't think it would be this much. Oh well, healthy for us humans as well.

The HCM issue is tough - we adopted a rag doll that was from a shelter. She was partially albino and an amazing kitty! Unfortunately, Flower passed away at age 4 due to the hardening of her heart. The good news was that she was playing with her brother up till the very end and we were right there when it happened. Doctors told us that medication would have only extended by a little time.

I am a new owner, and I don’t really know what to do with my kitty yet. But thanks to this video, I now know how to treat my babies. Thanks a lot for creating this! 😊

They are awesome pets. Had two for 16 years.

Just adopted a two year old ragdoll from a rescue centre. She is a beautiful cat with no health problems. So far I can see no down side. However the rescue centre gave us a good briefing on what to expect. Yes they do require a lot of brushing, attention etc but you get back what you give.

3:46 my poor ragdoll stampy, he was so beautiful I got him when I was 7, now I’m 14 and he recently passed due to this, he was only 6. Poor little guy. I miss him so much 💔

My ragdoll cat is about 21 years old. She decided that after my sister brought her home I was her human. She took any opportunity to bolt into my room that she could even if you tried to keep her in a bedroom with the door shut. She knew the door would eventually open and she'd bolt. I'd hear my dad call out for her and I knew that if I turned away from my desk she'd be sitting on my bed right behind me looking right at me, looking for an opportunity to jump in my lap, or trying to climb on my desk and I didn't notice her yet.

We just got a ragdoll kitten that I named Vaelin, she's a blue seal point with zero fear, we're going to train her to go on walks once she turns 6 months

I have a lilac lynx mitted and a seal, split faced, mitted tortie Ragdolls. They ALWAYS find me and I ❤️❤️❤️❤️ them! Even though their fur corkscrews into every possible materials’ fiber I own!

Ahhhh, I absolutely love lilacs AND lynxes and the mix of them is just 😍 I would've loved our second ragdoll to have been either a blue or a lilac lynx mitted. Our boy Leon (2 years) is a flame mitted with an hourglass-shaped blaze and 1-year-old Lillia is a brown tortie bicolor. Flame is my favorite color but lilac comes in second. Lynxes are just gorgeous in any color, tho!

I've just got my Solid blue point recently. He's super playful, but also very loving after his play sessions. I'm assuming he'll get lazier as he ages. Either way, he's been such a blessing but he is very smart and will try to open my shower as I'm in it. Which in turn let's all that damn early cold morning air in 🥶😂

My dad was allergic to our old cat but our new one he is perfect with and do love each over when their together

Pretty sure our family cat was part ragdoll. She was a black cat with shortish fur, but she had the flexibility of a ragdoll. I could drape her around my neck, and she was content to stay there, indefinitely. My current cat gets pretty antsy, no matter how I hold him.

You used my cat twice here, how lovely 🥰 great video, even though I’m a big Ragdoll lover. And on the allergies, I have found that everyone having an allergy has less to no problems when at my house or near my cats. For hours even. So I’m surprised they aren’t lower in allergens

Even though I’m allergic, I think that I would still adopt one. They are so cute!❤

I love our Ragdoll cat! Our adult Ragdoll loves to play every single day! She fetches cat toys like a dog. She brings it to us and we fling it, & she retrieves it. We have different activity toys that we rotate and set up every day. This is how much she likes to play. She loves playing in boxes too. She has a siamese sister & they are great together. She is very affectionate. She just "flops" in our arms & we tote her around all day long. The only thing we cant have in our home is any type of plant (we can have kitty grass) as she quickly destroys any plants or fresh bouquets of flowers. LOL We love her & her sister very much. If you are looking for an affectionate & fun cat I recommend a ragdoll cat. 😻 ❤️

My ragdoll Felixxia is on a strict diet. So far so good, she sleeps lesser now and more active than before.

I've seen two in my life that I got to chill with. One male and one female. They are the sweetest!

My 2nd oldest cat is a mix of a savannah and a ragdoll. I have 7 cats of all sorts, japanese bobtail, savannah, bengal, etc. The savannah ragdoll mix is easily my favorite. Ive had her since the day she was born. Even as a kitten she would sleep on my bed when the other kittens were sleeping with their mom. Shes extremely smart and can even open doors (we have childlock handles on the doors now). She has also imprinted on me specifically. Shes not a big fan of other people or other cats, but shes obsessed with me. She follows me around and gets super happy and purrs like crazy when she gets any attention at all. Shes like an Akita in that she bonds strongly to 1 owner over all others. She also LOVES playing hide and seek. Shes 14 years old and still going strong. Shes never had any illnesses or health problems whatsoever. Everyone who meets her assumes shes a young adult. I highly reccomend ragdoll mixes to anyone who wants a healthy long lived cat. You cant get healthier than a ragdoll mix. Ragdolls have virtually no health issues as is, and outcrossing them to another healthy breed makes them even healthier. American Bobtails and Japanese bobtails, and savannahs are fun too. They are ALL basically like dogs. They both have no concept of personal space and seek out affection from everyone who visits. My american bobtails is my most doglike cat, and my japanese bobtail is like a playful little terrier. Just a little ball of energy that one is lol. Hes curious to a fault though lol. He has absolutely no self preservation instincts compared to the rest. I have some very large pythons (burmese, reticulated, african rock, etc etc) that he is always trying to sneak a peak at. id NEVER let him get anywhere near them, Infact they are all very securelt locked up, but i find it crazy that he tries so hard to get to them..... because they would absolutely eat him if given the chance. its almost like he's trying to get eaten. Let me reiterate though, they are ALL locked up with lock and key and have no access to my cats whatsoever. I would never ever ever allow my pets to injure eachother. I absolutely love both cats and reptiles of all sorts.

So beautiful, and they also love water, something that I can be selective on certain cat breeds

They are lovely cats, the only con I have noticed with mine is the super fine hair shedding…floating around, weaving into your clothes, sticking to your face, your eyeballs…everything 😳 😂 Also I did have a very smart and very big boy who used to reach up and steal food off of counters and open doors lol but he was also the sweetest and was definitely one of those cats who would come up and pat people and sit with them when they were sad.♥️

I have a Ragdoll Siamese mix and his brother is a Siamese, they were both adopted about 7 months ago so I can tell having a rough start changed their personalities a little. But Royal the Rag/siamese is very smart, follows me everywhere, his fur is quiet light and not dense so he doesn’t require much brushing for now (he just turned 1) him and his brother are pretty active they run and play a lot so thats good and bad haha, good for his health bad for house and items. He is silly, he does need almost constant attention when awake (his brother too) even when those little butts are tearing my furniture apart I love them so much.

Vacuuming after mine two fluffy bums is something. And we gave up on lint brushes long time ago 😆

I have own mine follows me around everywhere unless she’s a sleep. She uses me as her permanent pillow. Low maintenance on brushing and she gets along with children too

Thank you so much.

I have a ragdoll-Siamese mix, and he loves to help clean

We have a 3/4 ragdoll, shes the most affectionate pet you could imagine, shes thick as 2 short planks but has learnt that if she scratches the door she geta let in

Apart from holding my CoCo like a baby, brushing her is the best part. I got a detangling brush for people and use that on her. She NEVER has knots. I brush her everyday!

My male ragdoll was a street/stray. He survived with the instincts you need it took me two months to catch him. We have Coyotes here also that hunt actively down our streets. His claws/head are twice the size of a normal cat wouldn't be easy for a single Coyote.

I’ve had a lot of cats from Siamese to just a no breed cat. But I purchased a rag doll cat from a breeder. Brought the cat home around 3 months old thought first to give it space settle in but this cat was nothing laid back or easy going it would attack you bite you seriously attack door handles didn’t even have to move I did a lot of research before purchasing one and wanted something really laid back for my daughter it would bite scratch attack my daughter just walking across the floor she was terrified of this cat or would attack you as you slept bring blood. I had never seen a cat so mean. I have always been you get a pet it’s your forever pet. I took car to vet they have to wear gloves tried putting it in medication seemed to make it worse. but I would not have anything hurting my daughter so my experience with a rag doll was totally different than this laid back following loving cat. I went to the local shelter and got my little girl a kitten they are best of friends. So please I did my research before I got the cat from a reputable breeder I did take the cat back and she excepted and gave my money back. So just be careful I’m sure there’s some loving breeds but my experience was a total nightmare.
