General Information

Ragdoll cats are gentle and docile in nature. They very rarely attack anything, not even in defense. They are known as laid-back cats that prefer to be around people who will give them attention. More often than not, Ragdoll cats are kept indoors - their docile nature can be disadvantageous to them when they are at the mercy of the outdoor world.

History

At the beginning of the 1960's, a Californian woman called Ann Baker created the Ragdoll breed by breeding a white female Persian to a male Birman. Soon after, Ann Baker added a female Burmese cat into the breeding program.
