  • Ragdolls cats are known for their loyal devotion to their  
    human companions. They are very intelligent and easily
    trained. Most are docile and less active than other breeds.
    Ragdoll cats  love to sleep and to just be where you are.
    Ragdolls cats are wonderful  companions. Ragdoll cat
    become very close with their owners. Ragdolls are an
    indoor cat. There love and trusting nature might lead some
    one to run off with them. Our Ragdolls live inside with us
    and have the run of the house.
-General Ragdoll Information
History:
Ragdoll book authors are in agreement with the small part of Ragdoll history you are about to read. Ragdolls are a hybrid
breed. Meaning they did not occur spontaneously in nature. The late Ann Baker of California is given full credit as founder of
the Ragdoll Breed. It is well documented that the breed began in the 1960's when a white Angora type queen named Josephine
mated with a Birman type male cat whose subsequent offspring were then crossed with a sable Burmese type cat. We use the
word "TYPE"  because the foundation cats that formed this breed were not pedigreed cats. It is generally agreed that Josephine
was a free running cat who bred at will. She was owned by Mrs. Pennels, a neighbor of Ann Baker. At some point in time,
Josephine was involved in a road traffic accident and after being found injured she was nursed back to health by a local
university hospital. After her recovery Ann became interested in her kittens as she believed they were calmer than kittens
Josephine had prior to the accident. This belief lead Ann to begin acquiring some of the kittens, Buckwheat being her first.
