My Ragdoll Cat Adventures Part Three → Welcome To Ragdoll Cats For Life

3rd Jan 2025 Blog Post 269 New Years

New Years was a bit crap this year. I am still struggling with my health and was feeling really crappy so me and boyfriend did not have a celebration. I am not that bothered about New Years anyway. I just hope 2025 will be a better year for me health-wise. Me and the boys went to bed early as usual for New Years. There were so many bloody fireworks that went on all evening and at midnight which woke me up. The boys did not seem that bothered, I think it was just me that was stressed! This week I have been hanging out with my boys as I am still on leave. (Don’t want to go back to work!) Yesterday was funny as Tom decided to go in the shower with me and he got his tail soaked then jumped out and shook water everywhere! I had to dry him off with a towel (which he did not like.) He has never got that wet in the shower before! I said to him I can give him a bath if he wants! Lol. Bonkers!

What Is A Ragdoll Cat?

The Ragdoll cat as legend has it, was descended from Josephine a feral cat living in California in the 1960s. She was struck by a car and after she recovered, her kittens produced all the winning traits that would become the hallmark of the Ragdoll cat including large heavy build, soft downy fur, docility and laid-back personality. The original bloodlines of Ragdolls can be traced back to Ann Baker’s Ragdoll cats. It was she who developed the breed from the original Josphine. Ragdolls are beautiful, friendly, loving cats know as gentle giants of the cat world.
