I love breeding cats and I love science. Danu gives me an opportunity to nerd out on genetics and to have technical conversations with our veterinarian. But most of all I love Mother Nature’s hand in the breeding process. Whatever you call her, God, the Universe, or something else, for me, she always uniquely touches each of our blue eyed, fluffy Ragdoll kittens. This is my favorite part!

When you choose to adopt from Danu Ragdolls, you are not just getting a pet; you are becoming part of a community that values the unique qualities of Ragdoll cats. The support and guidance provided by Danu Ragdolls continue long after the adoption process, ensuring that each kitten and their new family thrive together.

We have owned Ragdolls since 2009 and hence Danu’s cats are our pets first and foremost. We are a family owned small cattery, servicing southern California with an intentionally designed home so that nursing moms and newborns to playful and curious 6-8 week olds get exactly the care they need. The Danu Ragdoll mission of includes the following:

The Ragdoll cat breed is characterized by having a friendly demeanor, loyal to their family, social, playful as well as having high tolerance for other pets and children.

Ragdoll cats are known for their striking appearance, which includes a variety of colors and patterns. Here’s a comprehensive list of the colors and patterns that are recognized for the Ragdoll breed:

Colors: Seal, Blue, Chocolate, Lilac, Red, Cream, Flame, Tortie (a mix of two colors, such as seal and red or blue and cream)

Patterns:

Colorpoint: Body color is lighter than the points (ears, face, paws, and tail). Points are a solid, darker color.

Mitted: Similar to Colorpoint but with white paws and a white chin. A white stripe (blaze) may run up the nose. Usually, a white belly stripe extends from the chest to the tail.

TICA registered breeders follow defined breed standards. This practice helps preserve the breed's quality and integrity, ensuring that their cats exhibit the expected physical and behavioral characteristics of their breed. Cookie, pictured here, was born all white with pink noses, a signature of the Ragdoll breed. As the kittens mature, each develop unique markings. Cookie has developed white ‘gloves’ or mitts and darker limbs and a dark nose. Those blue eyes, another hallmark of the Ragdoll breed.

Cats LOVE a good clean litter box. Purebred Ragdoll cats thrive in a loving and clean environment. Here, Danu Ragdolls shares some advice about litter box maintenance as a first step towards ensuring our healthy purebred Ragdoll kittens enjoy a long and vigorous life in their forever homes.

Ragdoll cats love their owners. The attention, affection, and beauty of the Ragdoll cat makes this breed a great addition to any family.

Introducing cats to each other or to a new environment requires patience, careful planning, and understanding of feline behavior. Danu Ragdolls has experience helping their clients with this important phase of adoption. Our focus on delivering the best experience to our new cat families helps create that positive bond between our kittens and their future homes.

Mushu and Jeremy have a great bond. Mushu Kitten, a blue mitted lynx was introduced to the Danu Family at 8 weeks old. As a young kitten, she often fell asleep on Jeremy’s shoulder while he was reading at night before bed. As Mushu matured, she became a very affectionate snuggler. She loved to lay on Jeremy’s tummy and offer nose touches and small licks on his nose. Ragdolls are the BEST!
