Cat Breeds

Assignment Details

 

Description: They can weigh anywhere form 10 to 20 pounds. They have a long, silky coat that requires a medium amount of brushing to keep up with the shedding. They commonly have blue eyes and have a light colored body and a darker face. Unlike other cats, rag dolls are known to be very lovable and cuddly. Some will even retrieve toys. They can be very docile and playful at the same time. 

History: Ragdolls were developed in the 1960's by a breeder named Ann Baker in Riverside California. They origin consisted of free-roaming cats; her long-haired white female cat and a neighbor cat that she found. By selecting characteristics and temperaments and criteria that she wanted, she ended up with her own breed: the ragdoll. 

Interesting Facts: Ragdolls go limp when you pick them up.

They are one of the largest domestic cat breeds.

They love running water.
