Raising Ragdolls with Love & Care
We are a small, TICA-registered home cattery dedicated to breeding exceptional Ragdoll cats. Our journey began over 8 years ago with a deep love for this gentle, blue-eyed breed – and that passion has never wavered.
Every kitten born in our home is raised underfoot, handled daily, and socialized with children, other pets, and the everyday sounds of a busy family. We believe happy, confident kittens grow into magnificent companions.
All our breeding cats are HCM and PKD tested, vaccinated, and receive the highest standard of veterinary care. We send kittens home with a full health guarantee, vaccination records, and lifetime breeder support.
Health Guaranteed
HCM & PKD tested parents plus a 50 point genetic panel before breeding ever takes place. 2-year genetic guarantee.
Fully Vaccinated
Age-appropriate vaccines before going home.
Home Raised
Kittens raised in our living room, not a cattery room.
TICA Registered
All kittens come with TICA registration papers.
Our Breeding Cats
Each of our breeding cats is carefully selected for temperament, health, and conformation to the Ragdoll breed standard. All parents are HCM and PKD tested.
Scarlett
Scarlett is sweet and mild mannered with our children and dogs. She is a wonderful mother and everything a Ragdoll should be!
QTpie
QTpie is a Quadruple Grand Champion…Not an easy feat and something only the most beautiful and sweet ragdolls can acomplish!
Luna
Luna is a stunning seal tortie and she has a wonderful personality to add to her unique looks!
Health Testing & Guarantee
We take health seriously, it’s not just as a promise, but our practice. Every step we take ensures your kitten arrives in perfect health.
Our Health Commitment
We hold ourselves to the highest standards in the Ragdoll breeding community. Our breeding program is built around one principle: health first, always.
All kittens receive a full veterinary examination before going home and come with a comprehensive 2-year genetic health guarantee covering hereditary conditions.
HCM Screening
All breeding cats are screened for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM)
PKD Genetic Testing
We DNA test all breeding cats for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD1) to ensure we never produce affected offspring.
Full Vaccination Protocol
Kittens receive age-appropriate FVRCP vaccines at 8 and 12 weeks old
2-Year Genetic Guarantee
We stand behind the health of every kitten we produce. If a hereditary condition is diagnosed within 2 years, we cover that and we also send all kittens home with mom and dads genetic results
