About Millicent

About Ragdoll Cats

Ragdolls are large, blue-eyed beauties named for their tendency to go limp and relaxed when picked up. These docile, affectionate cats are known for following their owners from room to room like loyal shadows. Their semi-long silky coats and gentle expressions make them absolutely stunning.

Adopting a Ragdoll means gaining a devoted, laid-back companion who craves your attention and affection. They're wonderful with children and other pets, adapting easily to family life. Their trusting, calm nature and love of being held make them one of the most endearing cat breeds you'll ever meet.
