Sookie – Ragdoll Kitten of the Month
Sookie – Ragdoll Kitten of the Month
Sookie is my 3 month old, seal colorpoint Ragdoll kitten. There is no real reason for her name, I just thought it would be cute. I guess the show True Blood inspired me slightly, but I just really liked how it sounded. She was born on March 6, 2014. I got her from Galaxy Rags, located in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her breeder is Judy Mackey, & I believe there is actually an interview on the Floppy Cats website between Jenny & Judy.
I’ve always been a fan of Ragdolls since the day I learned about the breed & their floppiness, sweet personalities, beautiful appearance, & their overall kind temperament. I don’t know when or where I first discovered the Ragdoll, but I’m positive it’s been for at least the past 10 years.
I’ve never been a huge cat person, or let’s moreso say that I’ve always been more of a dog person. I really love all animals in general. I have a yellow lab mix, Samson, & he is my absolute pride & joy. He’s been in my life since the day that he was born. My girlfriend & I both work all the time & while Sammy never destroys anything or generally acts depressed, etc., I just have been wanting to get him a companion since we’re both gone a lot. Puppies are a lot of work, while kittens are quite a bit easier when it comes to house training & all. I decided this past December (2013) that I was going to start saving my pennies & get my first Ragdoll kitten.

Hi, I’m Jenny Dean, creator of Floppycats! Ever since my Aunt got the first Ragdoll cat in our family, I have loved the breed. Inspired by my childhood Ragdoll cat, Rags, I created Floppycats to connect, share and inspire other Ragdoll cat lovers around the world,

Sookie & Samson both beautiful! I have 3 Ragdolls & a yellow Lab who lives indoors. Everyone gets along, but the cats rule the roost! Great story.
Ragdolls & labs are a great combination <3
Pictures of big dogs and kittens make me melt! Sookie is so adorable- I bet she’s a big girl by now since she’s had her first birthday! Samson is a very handsome boy, too. Thanks for sharing them with us!
Thanks 🙂 She is one year old already, not really a kitten anymore :-/
Sookie and Sampson are both beautiful! Lil Sookie is a heart breaker for sure. Enjoy your new baby girl.
Thank you 🙂
Adorable Sookie!!! I am a wee bit jealous because I am in the exact same position you were in during the early winter my friend! I have put down a deposit on my (not even born yet) Ragdoll kitten almost a month ago. It’s going to be about 2 more weeks before the seal colorpointl ragdoll Miss Betsy Ross gives birth to her litter. Then another 12-14 weeks before I can actually take her home!! I am trying to be patient and not bother the breeder either, but I’m dying!! So I am pouring over floppycats and watching every video of Trigg and Charlie and all the pictures everyone sends in, for my “fix” until my little Cleopatra makes her way home to me!
Enjoy your sweet Sookie (and don’t let any vamps near her ;))
SOOO cute and the waiting is hard.. we have 7 more weeks
That’s so exciting! I found Floppycats during that long wait for Sookie as well 🙂
