lovable ragdoll temperament for which the ragdoll breed is known and loved.\u00a0 Ragdoll-breed kittens who are raised in a cage, sadly, may never develop that wonderful temperament.\u00a0 RoyalDolls Ragdoll kittens\u00a0are raised\u00a0in our home, carried around and snuggled from the time their eyes are beginning to open.\u00a0 We want each one to be a loving and social &#8220;lap-kitten&#8221; or &#8220;puppy-cat&#8221;!\u00a0 Of course, our Ragdolls will conform to the breed standard, with wonderful pointed colors and patterns in seal, blue, and sometimes lynx!\u00a0 Breathtaking crystal-blue eyes and and an exquisitely dense and soft, better-than-a bunny coat round out the ideal RoyalDolls Ragdoll kitten.\u00a0\u00a0 Our kittens are registered with TICA&#8211; The International Cat Association.\u00a0<\/p><p>General Ragdoll Kitten\u00a0Information:<br \/>Ragdolls are a slow-to-mature breed (they may not reach full coat and size for 2-3 years), so you can expect that\u00a0 RoyalDolls kittens will usually be weaned and ready to go to their new homes around 12 weeks of age. \u00a0By the time your RoyalDolls Ragdoll kitten goes home with you, he will have been examined and have a health certificate signed by our veterinarian, he will have received ALL vaccinations necessary for the first year (with the exception of rabies), and will have been wormed if necessary.\u00a0\u00a0 Your pet Ragdoll will also have been spayed or neutered by our capable vet, using the state-of-the art juvenile neutering techniques recommended by the American Veterinary Medical Association.\u00a0 This practice saves you the\u00a0 inconvenience of arranging spay\/neuter surgery at a later date, eliminates the possibility that your kitten will begin territorial urine-spraying before he is neutered, and is actually as safe or safer than later surgery, with faster recovery.\u00a0<\/p><p><b><u>Health:<\/u><\/b><br \/>RoyalDolls Ragdoll Cattery is a FIV\/FELV-free cattery&#8230;all our adults have been tested and are certified negative for both, which means that all our kittens will leave here guaranteed free of FIV and FELV.\u00a0 We are a &#8220;closed&#8221; cattery in that we do not bring in other cats for breeding, because we want to avoid the possibility of exposing our Ragdolls to disease.\u00a0\u00a0All RoyalDolls kittens come with a written one-year health guarantee against pre-existing or genetic\u00a0 ailments, or FIP, and a FIVE year replacement guarantee for HCM, a rare heart disease, when confirmed by a certified veterinary cardiologist.\u00a0 All of our cats have been tested for the only gene known to cause HCM in Ragdolls, prior to breeding.\u00a0 When your kitten goes home, we will send you home with written recommendations for diet, health examinations, immunizations, and other factors which will help your kitten to be as healthy as possible.\u00a0 We will also continue to be available for questions after you and your new Ragdoll kitten arrive home!<\/p><p><b><u>D<\/u><\/b><u style=\"font-weight: bold;\">ecl<span style=\"font-style: inherit;

please provide them for your new kitten and patiently remove him\/her to the appropriate scratching place if he scratches in an inappropriate area.\u00a0 Please keep your Ragdoll&#8217;s claws clipped (just the tip) during the training period so that they are blunt&#8230;this is very easily done and we will be happy to tell you or show you how.\u00a0 A spray bottle of water is also a humane but effective deterrent if your kitten scratches inappropriately.\u00a0\u00a0 Ragdoll cats are highly intelligent, and it usually takes very little time\u00a0 for them to become accustomed to scratching\u00a0 only in appropriate places.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You are welcome to contact us for more\u00a0information\u00a0if you have questions about the declaw process and why we believe that it is both unnecessary and harmful.\u00a0 You may also click the &#8220;Save a Paw&#8221;
