Ragdoll cats are a breed of domestic cat known for their docile and affectionate nature. They are often described as “rag dolls” due to their tendency to go limp when picked up. Ragdoll cats are a relatively new breed, having been developed in the 1960s by Ann Baker in Riverside, California.

Ragdoll cats are typically large, with males weighing 12 to 20 pounds and females weighing 8 to 15 pounds. They have a semi-longhaired coat that is available in a variety of colors and patterns. Ragdolls are known for their beautiful blue eyes, which are a distinguishing feature of the breed.
