| The Ragdoll is a blue eyed pointed cat and is known for its large size, silky rabbit-like fur, and laid back disposition. The coat is a medium to long length and tends to be mat resistant due to the lack of a thick undercoat. Shedding is minimal which makes grooming easy.
Adult males can weigh from 15 to well over 20 pounds in adulthood, with the female weighing between 8 to 12 pounds. Slow to mature, the Ragdoll does not bring in its full color or attain its full weight until they are 3 or 4 of years of age.
The Ragdoll consists of three patterns: the bicolor with an inverted white "v" on forehead; the mitted with white mitts on the front feet and white boots on back legs; and the colorpoint with no white.
Ragdolls are born white and later develop into some of the following colors: seal; chocolate; blue; lilac; red; cream; tortie with three colors; and lynx with tabby markings.
The bluer the eye color the better; however, loss of blue eye color can be noted in some of the dilute colors or patterns.
