⭐️ Update ⭐️

Elsa is doing great. She is healthy and growing well. She has a balance of wet and dry food. She is getting plenty of play time and interaction. We recognise that every Ragdoll is different and not all of our tips will be the same for others 😊

My Ragdoll Cocoa lived to be 16. He didn't like wet food either. I measured/free fed him Royal Canin Ragdoll formula.  He was always a healthy weight. Toward the end of his life, I did switch him to a vet recommended kidney diet due to his lab work. He was such a wonderful cat. He passed away on 10/30/23 from kidney failure. I had him euthanized at home when his kidney levels were reaching critical levels. He transitioned peacefully in my arms. A happy cat to the end, he purred up to his final moments.

I loved Cocoa so much. Tou are so right that this is a commitment. While the loss is awful, I would do it all again. I'm so glad I got to know such a wonderful cat.

I always took extra moments to spend additional time with him when he sought attention. Even if it meant stopping what I was doing. I talked to him and engaged with him often. It makes such a difference when you put in the effort.

Elsa is beautiful. I know you will cherish her. ❤

It takes at least three to four years for a Ragdoll to fully mature.

My ragdoll didn't calm down until he was almost four. He's on Wellix Well-Mix Cat Food now and his coat is so soft and shiny. People always ask what I feed him.

I think the ragdolls’ behaviour depends on the cat’s personality. I have two ragdolls and they’re not at all fussy or messy. They’re both so gentle and patient! While I’m writing this my eldest rag doll (an 8 year old male) is asleep next to me and has managed to drown me in 2 tonnes of cat fluff 😂

The funniest thing about this is that i'm watching this bc im getting a ragdoll kitten tomorrow and I already have a cat named Elsa.

I'm laughing so hard about how cats really are fussy like humans. I think that's why I like them so much 😂 i respect an animal that cares about cleanliness like I do 😂

Ragdoll shave huge personalities so it’s hard to know what’s to expects from them, they all are so different😂

I found my Lynx Point Ragdoll one night, I scooped him up and brought him inside thinking he was my aunt's cat, what's inside it turns out he was a beautiful sweet stray whose head looked at like it had been used as a chew toy by a raccoon recently!! He was so sweet and calm and cuddly and affectionate and amazing to me I have nursed him back to health just the two of us he's the size of a full grown cat but he's definitely a kitten LOL I've never had a cat is disposition before and I've had many cats ragdolls are amazing and so beautiful and sweet I'm so glad I found him!

Elsa now has a combination of Applaws dry and Wet food! Which is 100% natural ingredients and no added nastiness! Thanks for everyone’s comments

There is always food in my cats bowls. I prep a "special" dinner in the evening where I mix a reasonable portion of dry food with about a quarter of a 3oz can of wet food, mixed well. It seems to help them sleep through the night. Not a proven fact, but it works well for my clan of 8 (feral/rescue) cats. In the morning, I lay down fresh dry food for the day.

I had a Ragdoll from '71 to '91. Yes, he lived 20 years as an indoor/outdoor cat and only on dry food. If not for an unfortunate event, he would've loved another year or two. I just got another.

I have a 9 month old ragdoll. The top thing I wish I was told before getting her was how much energy they have. I thought I was getting a lazy laid back cat but she doesn’t stop playing!! I wouldn’t change her for anything in the world but be prepared they’re feisty little buggers.

I’ve reserved two ragdolls and I’m so excited 🥺

I got my ragdoll after she was deemed unadopptable at the pound. She had littleraly no trust in humans and her past owners snipped half her ear off. My dad had finally gotten her for me. This cat has been with me threw thick and thin. I've had her since I was 7 and I'm 16 now, I dont know where I would be without her.

we've had cats before and now we want a Ragdoll because our boy just passed away and the house is sad without a cat.  We've always let our cats eat throughout the day and none of them were ever obese...

I think ragdolls are considered adults around 3-4 years old :) also Elsa is a wonderful name!!

My ragdoll is a clumsy unco - the only cat who cant jump fences, fell out of a tree and gets attacked by birds, with his only defence flopping over. He’s an indoor boy! Love his unco-ness!

My ragdoll is the sweetest cat I've ever had. He follows me everywhere and sleeps on my pillow.

We have an 8-year-old, blue-mitted Ragdoll named Mr. McCloud! He's only ever had dry food, and absolutely HATED the wet food.  I work from home and he's really my little buddy, following me from room to room and letting me know when he wants to be cuddled!  He's the sweetest thing ever and we're so thrilled that we went with a Ragdoll!!
