Hello Ragdoll lovers! I am 25 years old and the main caretaker behind Ragalicious Ragdolls. My husband and I are both one of Jehovah's Witnesses. We believe in being honest and treating others with love! This means I always want to help you whenever possible.
My husband Josh works full time as a locksmith, but when he comes home he's always so happy to greet our cats. He helps me so much with all my kitty chores. I work part time as an Airbnb manager for my family.
I am absolutely obsessed with my cats. I actually have two breeds I focus on; Ragdolls & British Shorthairs. My husband and I started breeding show ragdolls when we got married in 2020. Before that I bred Scottish folds & munchkins as hobby, but was very disappointed in the overall breed health.
After purchasing my first ragdolls from overseas I quickly learned the importance of healthy lines, but also how much the ragdoll temperament can vary!
I've become hyper focused and extremely picky on mega cuddly ragdoll temperament. Some breeders have told me it's impossible to always produce that or impractical of me...
I have this super strong desire to see everyone of my adopters enamored with their kitten and sending lots of pictures of their kittens snuggling them to sleep!
I am a bit of a perfectionist! I always want my cats and kittens to be super clean. I am very on top of illnesses and problems, doing my due diligence so you can feel safe and happy with your kitten. Ofcourse this means ALL cats are genetically tested for HCM, PKD1 and do not have a history of FIP in their lines. As any reputable breeder should, I do not breed any cat that is sick, a carrier for any diseases or possesses an undesirable behavior trait.
My health guarantee and contract reflect how much I believe in my cats. I cover every potential possibility as my responsibility. I am always ready to help at a moments notice.
My cats are adored and spoiled by my husband and I. Once the Kittens are litter trained they sleep in the bed with us and are allowed free access to my whole home. They are a cherished part of our life. I brush my cats teeth, groom them every day, and all our kitties have regular check ups at our local vet. All our kittens are handled from day one and exposed to a variety of sights, sounds and smells. They are experienced with cat shows & visitors!
My kittens are NEVER locked in a bathroom and forgotten. They don't hiss and hide under the bed because they aren't used to being held. My cats are not caged, or unhealthy from being fed a poor nutrient kibble diet. I raw feed because it's what's best for them & their future owners. It's definitely not the easier route, but I spare no expense for them.
My dedication is to your happiness with your ragdoll kitten. I have found an awesome trick to getting to know the true personalities I produce. By giving my adoptive families Temperament & Quiz Questionnaire, I am able to gather much more accurate data on cuddliness levels!
You ever hear a breeder say "Yes, parents are friendly." or "Yes, parents love to cuddle, they are the best."?
To me this such a generic answer and tells me nothing! Many times I have gotten the kitten and they did not grow up to be the type of cuddly want or very sociable! Has this happened you? This comes down to the parent's genes which some factors being due to lack of socialization. This can be so disappointing for someone who will now care for that little life for the next 15 years.
I know every kitty will have their individual personalities and a hundred percent consistency is unrealistic, but I am adamant I can. I have narrowed down my cattery to only the BEST & SNUGGLIEST parents who consistently produce the same.
My goal is to have 100+ positive reviews of happy families with the kitten of their dreams.
Week 0-2: Kittens are born in one of my kittens are rooms in a safe enclosed bedding area.
Kittens have heating pad and washable pads. Mom has her own clearly loved pens play pen area just for her. During these first two weeks moms may try to move their kittens so they will not have free access to leave.
My husband and I take turns checking on kittens what feels like every hour! We want to make sure kittens are comfortable & at a safe temperature. I gently touch the kittens for very short periods so they become accustomed early to being held.
Initially begin with short intermissions of petting all areas of the kitten’s body softly (paw pads, belly, tail, around the face).
Week 3-4: Kittens eyes are now fully open and kittens are more comfortable being held longer. At this time my husband and I will carry a kitten around the house or while watching tv. I extend the duration of holding time.
I hold them upside down, touch their paws,smother them in kisses and more. At this age they are introduced to litter boxes and raw food while still drinking mainly milk. They learn how to drink from the water fountain.
I start to play their YouTube TV which is puppy desensitization videos. This really helps create unfazed kittens!
Week 5-8: Kittens are exploring and becoming very playful. I now take them to different rooms of the house to explore and encourage cuddling on the bed.
They are used to more 'aggressive handling' and are comfortable with all types of interaction. At this time they receive their first bath while using a lickable cat treat. They will receive 2-3 baths before going home.
Week 8-10: Kittens are still being held daily, kissed very frequently and interreacting with guests. Kittens have been used to using the Petkit Automatic Litter robot and get to explore the living room now!
They play with guests during Kitten Cuddles Visits and experience a variety of different people. They become part of the home and our family. I will do a few training hours of hanging out in their individual carriers.
I make sure all kittens have acquired appropriate grooming & litter box habits and are outgoing & ready to adjust to their new homes. During this time they sleep in the bed with my husband and I.
I absolutely love this age where I can wake up to purring faces.
Week 11-14: During this time kittens will have gotten spayed and neutered. I make sure they are in great health for their new homes as well as fully litter box trained.
Kittens are super used to all aspects of grooming, which includes brushing and nails. Every kitten should be easy to handle and touch!
This is our Nursery. This where kittens are born and live from 0 to 3 weeks. This area is in our bedroom bathroom so we can keep a close eye on newborns! This also allows us to keep the temperature controlled with space heaters and no draft. There are ring cameras inside each box so my husband and I can check on our kittens at any time. I

This also allows us to keep the temperature controlled with space heaters and no draft. There are ring cameras inside each box so my husband and I can check on our kittens at any time. I usually show mom their nesting area 1-2 weeks before due date. I change the bedding daily, assist in birthing and administer supportive care such as milk replacement.
This is my kitten cubes for ages 4-13weeks. Each litter is separated with their mom and housed in lucidium dog play pens. Each mom has access to come and go as she pleases. Mom's usually spend less and less time as kittens start to wean. I use washable peepads and flushable cat litter for training kittens. Once kittens are 5-6 weeks I add
This is my kitten cubes for ages 4-13weeks. Each litter is separated with their mom and housed in lucidium dog play pens. Each mom has access to come and go as she pleases. Mom's usually spend less and less time as kittens start to wean. I use washable peepads and flushable cat litter for training kittens. Once kittens are 5-6 weeks I add in toys and scratchers. Everyday I spend atleast 30 mins-1 hour per litter handling and socializing every kitten.
Every one to two days I change bedding, scoop litter, sanitize toys, bath messy kittens and clean up food from raw feeding (it can get messy!).
This bedroom is dedicated to queens and teenage kitties to use the litter box and eat their food. Cats can come and go throughout the house. Every night I change Petkit litter waste bin, sanitize surfaces with purrel, pick up any furrballs and change water bowls. Twice a week I mop floors, comb kitties and deep sanitize all cat shelves. E

This new addition is my kitty staging room. It allows me to take super clean & cute pics at all times of the day. I use it make stories, youtube videos or just get some one on one time with a kitty.
Our babies are adopted quickly, so reach out to reserve your furever friend or to ask any questions.
