Ragdoll cats are a popular breed known for their gentle, laid-back temperament and beautiful blue eyes. Originally bred in California in the 1960s, ragdolls are now one of the most popular cat breeds in the world.

Ragdoll cats are best known for their relaxed and easygoing personalities. They love to cuddle and be held, and they are often very attached to their owners. Ragdolls also tend to be very quiet cats, and they generally get along well with other pets and children.

I'm Jennie, the creator of Ragdoll Cats World. I have been owned and loved by Ragdoll Cats for almost twenty years after getting my first Ragdoll kittens, Huey and Choo-Choo back in 2003. They lived to the grand old age of 18 and 17 and they even made the move from London to Australia with me! We now have two Ragdoll cats, Violet and Ocean, and a Maine Coon cat named Eddie, and we love sharing our knowledge of all things related to Ragdoll Cats with you at Ragdoll Cats World!
