A Little History of The Ragdoll's Beginnings:
We all owe a woman named Ann Baker of Riverside, California, and Josephine a feral cat much thanks for the start of the Ragdoll Breed. In the early 60's Josephine, a white, long haired cat, lived on Baker's property in a cat colony. Baker nursed Josephine back to health after a car accident, and she became quite friendly. Baker noticed special qualities in her new friend and her kittens and kept a female kitten from one of her litters. She named the kitten Buckwheat, who was a solid black cat or a black self female. One of Baker's neighbors, the Pennels, also kept a pointed, male kitten with white mittens from one of Josephine's litters. He called this kitten Daddy Warbucks. Baker obtained a female kitten, Fugianna, who was born of Josephine and Daddy Warbucks. She was the first Bicolor Ragdoll. Baker, using the stud services of Daddy Warbucks, established the Ragdoll Breed. Ragdolls get their name from their docile nature and when you pick them up they go limp like a child's "Rag Doll".
A Little History of Razl Dazl Dolls and Ragdoll Cats:
Razl Dazl Dolls is a Small Southen California Cattery. We are now Showing our Ragdolls and have Champion Lines. Here we breed and raise our Ragdoll kittens in our home, nurturing them with love and attention. Our Adult Breeders are not put in small cages, but have " dog runs" with lots of room to run and jump and play with each other and toys. Of Course we can't keep them ALL in the House, though I'd like to. Kittens are never caged!!! We are constantly trying to improve the breed and our bloodlines. Our Ragdolls are large and docile and we like our motto "Unconditional Love For Sale". This is because the Ragdolls do love you unconditionally, not just at feeding time.
If you decide to become a Ragdoll Owner, be ready to have a cat that is devoted and loves you because you love them. Somewhat having the personality of a dog, loyalty, Ragdolls will follow you and always have to be with you and be a part of what you are doing. Ragdolls love to interact and are very smart. They can be taught to fetch, catch toys, and learn very quickly the things you don't want them to do with the clap of your hands and a sharp "NO".
Ragdolls are a strictly "indoor" cat, unless you have them outside in a secure or supervised area, Ragdolls need to be in a safe place. Their trait of being docile means they will not be aggressive, in turn, could be harmed by other animals. I have known a few very protective mothers with kittens, don't get me wrong, they can defend themselves, they just don't have the aggression of a domestic cat. Ragdolls are more laid back and passive.
Ragdolls have big blue eyes, and rabbit soft, medium to long fur. Their fur is low shedding and has this wonderful non-matting quality. Ragdolls come in many colors and patterns. We have Seal, and Blue, as well as the rare colors of Lynx, Flame and Tortie Points. My favorite being the Seal Bicolor. We are breeding our cats to be large Ragdolls. Ragdoll females are an average of 10-12 lbs. and up and males can be 15-20 lbs. at full maturity.
Our kittens are TICA registered, and have age appropriate shots and worming and are spayed or neutered at the time they leave for their new home, at approximately 12 - 14 weeks old and are spayed or neutered to protect this wonderful breed. Our kittens have a 5 year Guarantee and are always healthy kittens for you. We do Ship and sometimes deliver to Southern California residents. Sometimes we even have older teenage and grown Ragdolls for sale.
We here at Razl Dazl Dolls invite any questions and comments to better inform everyone on this WONDERFUL BREED so please feel free to call Cindy at (760) 244-6495 or e-mail for pictures and prices.
