There are many options available to you if you want to adopt a purebred cat. It is probably best to adopt either a rescue Ragdoll, or a retired breeder.
– Are the kittens raised underfoot? (in the breeder's home)– Does the breeder have a decent reputation?– Do the cats look happy and well on the breeder's website?
– Does the breeder have dogs or children?– Do you personally like the breeder’s personality?– Does the breeder test their mating cats for genetic diseases?
It is important that their kittens are either raised underfoot or in the breeder's home. If the breeder has a separate room, that too can be okay if the breeder is proactive about socializing the animals.
Photos of each new kitten on a breeder's website always say a lot about the cats. If there is a lot of "gook" in the cats' eyes and the eyes of the cat are droopy, then more than likely, it has health conditions.
