About Our Ragdoll Kittens for Adoption
When you choose to adopt a Ragdoll kitten from Bayou Ragdolls, you’re not just bringing home any kitten. You’re bringing home an exceptional kitten, one that is well cared for, loved, and has all of the highly desired traits of the breed. Make sure you take the time and find a breeder that is breeding to the breed standard and to better the Ragdoll breed. Searching for "Ragdoll kittens for sale near me" may be convenient but you may not be getting a kitten with the Ragdoll qualities you deserve when investing in a purebred Ragdoll kitten. .
We absolutely love and adore Ragdolls, and it is our passion and privilege to be able to raise them with love while getting them ready to leave our family to join yours. Our Ragdolls are not just pets, they are members of our family. They spend their days with our children, who play with them and snuggle them all day. Our kittens get lots of extra attention, from the extra time our homeschooled children can provide.
Selective Breeding for Temperament
At Bayou Ragdolls, we only breed cats that exhibit the best temperaments in our breeding program. We choose parents with the “puppy dog” personality, “floppy cats”, and cats that like to interact and be around our family. This helps us ensure we are producing kittens with the best dispositions.
Puppy-Like Personalities
Ragdolls are often compared to dogs for their friendly outgoing nature. They love to snuggle, be held and have their bellies rubbed. They are so affectionate they don't mind being picked up and will often go limp, hence the "floppy" name. Ragdolls will follow you room to room, and eagerly wait at the door for you to return home. Most Ragdolls will come when called just like a dog and they even enjoy a game of fetch. Learn more about how male Ragdolls tend to have more of the "puppy like" personalities.
Prioritizing Socialization
At Bayou Dolls, we focus on the well being and socialization of our Ragdoll kittens by raising them in our home where they are part of our family from the start. Unlike some breeders where kittens and parents are kept in cages, our Ragdolls have a free and stimulating environment to grow up in.
Living in our home allows our kittens to have constant human interaction and to become well adjusted and socialized companions. They are exposed to sights, sounds and activities of daily life so they get used to different experiences from an early age.
Our Ragdoll parents are part of our household as well and play a big role in raising their kittens. By having them live in a family setting we promote good behaviors and social dynamics that benefits the kittens.
We believe raising our Ragdolls in a home environment lays the foundation for strong bonds with their future families. From the moment they are born until they are ready to go to their new homes our kittens get love, care and attention every step of the way.
Providing the Best Nutrition for Ragdoll Kittens and Cats
Our ragdoll kittens and adult ragdoll cats are raised on the best quality diet. We feed our ragdoll adult cats Royal Canin Ragdoll formula dry food, our kittens are raised on Science Diet Kitten, they all receive high quality grain free wet food, freeze dried raw diet cat food, and fresh cooked chicken to ensure that all of our ragdoll kittens arrive to your home as healthy as possible.
Extensive Health Testing
We prioritize the health and well-being of our Ragdolls through comprehensive testing. Our ragdoll cattery has been tested for a range of health conditions, including Feline Leukemia (FeLV), Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), PK Deficiency, Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA), and Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM). In addition to these essential tests, we conduct extra testing on all of our adult ragdoll cats for 50 different less common genetic ragdoll cat issues. This ensures that our cats are free from potential health concerns and genetic abnormalities. By maintaining rigorous health testing standards, we strive to produce healthy and genetically sound Ragdoll kittens for our adoptive families, providing them with peace of mind and confidence in their new kitten.
Watch our kittens grow
We regularly share weekly pictures and videos of our adorable ragdoll kittens on our social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. We invite you to like, follow, and subscribe to our pages, where you'll get a glimpse into the daily lives of our kittens and learn more about their personalities and development. We're excited to share our journey with you and help you find the perfect ragdoll kitten to join your family!
What Age Should A Ragdoll Kitten Be When I Bring Them Home?
Ragdoll Cats Mature Slower Than Other Cats
Ragdoll kittens take a bit more time before they are ready to go to their new homes compared to other breeds. Breeders will often wait until the kittens are at least 12- to 16 weeks or older before posting pictures of them as available for adoption. This is because Ragdoll kittens are a bit fragile in the early stages and need to stay with their mom for a longer period. Giving them proper care and nurturing early on sets them up for a healthy and happy kitten in the future.
Color development of a Ragdoll kitten
Ragdoll kittens come into the world as little bundles of solid white fur, but their true colors and patterns start to emerge over the first few weeks of life. It’s around 5-8 weeks when the Ragdoll’s colors and patterns really start to show. The color doesn’t stop there, over the next 18 months the colors will continue to develop and deepen adding to their already gorgeous looks.
Ragdoll kittens are smaller in size than other kittens
Despite being the second largest breed, Ragdolls follow a different developmental path. They mature slower than most other breeds. Ragdolls continue to grow and develop until they are around 4 years old, a much longer time than most other breeds. As kittens they may look smaller compared to other breeds at the same age, because of their slow and extended growth.
Ragdoll kittens can take a little longer to wean
You may notice our Ragdoll kittens are available at a slightly older age than some other breeds. This is because Ragdoll kittens take a bit longer to mature and need a bit more time to wean from their mothers. Kittens should be eating dry food and at a healthy weight before they leave their mothers care. This way our kittens are fully ready for the next stage of their life and can settle in their new homes.
Best age for a Ragdoll kittens to go to their new homes
Ragdoll kittens should be at least 12 weeks old before they go to their new homes. They should be fully weaned, eating solid food and at a healthy weight. You should not bring home a Ragdoll kitten younger than 12 weeks old as this is the critical development and socialization time under their mothers care.
If you see Ragdoll kittens 14-18 weeks old don't overlook them. This is often the in the best interest of the kitten, who may have taken longer to properly wean from their mother. Despite their age they are still small and may look larger than they are due to their fluffy coats which can hide their size in pictures and videos.
