They Have Beautiful Eyes

Largest Domestic Cat

Dog-Like Personalities
The reason why these cats are so popular is that they have a dog-like personality. Ragdoll cats are loyal and playful like dogs are. This makes them more closely identifiable with dogs more than cats. Some Ragdoll cats have been known to greet their owner and show loyalty to family much as a dog would.
Quiet Cats
Ragdoll cats are quiet by nature. They don’t talk a lot aka meow at you but this can be concerning as they tend to not even talk when they’re in pain. Many will be in discomfort but still lie on your lap purring, but remember not all Ragdoll cats will be quiet. Ask the breeder about your cat before purchasing him or her, so you’ll know if you’re getting a talker or more refined Ragdoll cat.
Born Pure White
Ragdoll kittens are born pure white. That color combination you see on the coats of adult Ragdolls wasn’t always there. This breed is typically born pure white and their color arrives somewhere between two and four weeks of age. It’s fun to witness this color transition as the kittens’ age after being born to a breeder.
