About the Ragdoll
The Ragdoll is a large cat breed originating in United States (California). Adult cats typically weigh 10 to 20 pounds and live 12 to 17 years. The breed is described as docile, people-bonded, limp-when-held, gentle.
Calm households where the cat will be indoor-only. Ragdolls are famously docile and easy to handle. Outdoor-access homes — the breed lacks survival instinct and shouldn't roam.
Adult Ragdolls need about 25 minutes of daily exercise; adolescent cats typically need 30 minutes. The coat is long-coated with moderate shedding, and weekly brushing keeps the coat manageable.
