What is a Ragdoll?

A Ragdoll is a big cat. Ragdoll literally means 'rag doll', because the cat really hangs in the arms of its owner.

Its coat is medium length, silky soft and does not normally tangle. Point Ragdoll kittens are born bright white after which the colors slowly become clear. It is not until around the third year that it is fully grown and colored. Males then weigh between 5 and 10 kilos, an adult female weighs about 3 to 6 kilos.

Ragdolls fall under the point cats, Colourpoint. This means that the points, so the ears, legs, tail and mask are colored while the body is lighter colored. Point Ragdolls have blue eyes.
