Ragdoll Level Determination
As a dedicated breeder, we take pride in adhering to the stringent standards set forth by the TICA Ragdoll show rules (as illustrated in the following picture) to evaluate our kittens. Our foremost goal is to ensure that each kitten upholds the highest standards of excellence, preserving the integrity of the Ragdoll breed.
In our evaluation process, we meticulously assess each kitten’s features, including head shape, body structure, and coat quality. These characteristics are essential in determining whether a kitten meets the criteria for show quality Ragdolls. With years of expertise, we are able to accurately evaluate each kitten and determine their standing according to the TICA Ragdoll guidelines.
Should any kitten not meet the required standards and incur penalties during assessment, they are classified as pet quality. While these kittens may not possess the features needed for the show ring, they still make affectionate and delightful companions for individuals or families.
We understand that many people are primarily looking for a pet rather than a show cat. Nevertheless, as breeders, we are committed to producing exceptional Ragdolls that meet breed standards, uphold the breed’s integrity, and surpass our clients' expectations. In fact, we typically have more show-quality kittens available than pet-quality ones.
Regardless of the classification, adopting a kitten from us means bringing home a beautiful, well-tempered feline that will bring joy and love to your household.
