The Ragdoll is a breed of cat with a distinct colorpoint coat and blue eyes. Its morphology is large and weighty, and it has a semi-long and silky soft coat. American breeder Ann Baker developed Ragdolls in the 1960s. They are best known for their docile, placid temperament, and affectionate nature. The name Ragdoll is derived from the tendency to go limp and relaxed when picked up. The breed is particularly popular in both the United Kingdom and the United States.

If your Ragdoll gets lost
Docile and trusting, he lets people pick him up or take him in easily — and copes poorly outdoors. Check with immediate neighbours first.
