Ragdoll Notes

Character	Ragdoll Coat The Ragdoll coat is medium long and dense, soft, and silky in texture, lying close to the body, and breaking as the cat moves. The fur is longest around the neck, framing the face, and is short to medium length on the front legs but longer over the body. The tail is bushy.
Grooming	Ragdoll Grooming The Ragdoll requires daily combing with the hands or a soft brush to prevent matting.
History	Ragdoll Origins The Ragdoll originated in California, and it remains rare outside the United States. The first Ragdoll cats were bred by an American Anne Baker, whose white longhaired cat, Josephine, was involved in a road accident which left her with permanent injuries. When Josephine eventually had kittens, they were found to have particularly placid temperaments and would completely relax when picked up and cuddled, reminiscent of a ragdoll.
