About Ragdolls
Ragdoll cats are a popular breed known for their striking blue eyes, silky coats, and affectionate nature. Their name comes from their unique tendency to go limp and relaxed, like a ragdoll, when picked up – a charming trait that makes them a favorite among cat lovers.
These social and gentle cats are perfect for families, often following their owners around and enjoying cuddles. Their luxurious semi-long coat requires weekly brushing, though they shed less than expected. While not hypoallergenic, they are easy to groom and maintain.
Known for their calm demeanor, Ragdolls are great with children and other pets, making them an excellent choice for multi-pet households. They also enjoy interactive play, so providing toys and engaging with them regularly is essential to keep them mentally and physically stimulated.
💡FUN FACT! Ragdolls are often called “dog-like” or “puppy-like” cats because of their strong bond with humans and tendency to follow their owners around.

Thanks to Knose our cat Louis is alive after kidney failure and a bypass operation. Without insurance it would have been too expensive to proceed. Knose has paid the claims promptly and the service team has been excellent in responding to our queries.
