Ragdoll Category Cat

The image features a Ragdoll cat, a popular domestic feline breed known for its distinctive blue eyes, pointed coat pattern, and docile temperament. Ragdolls were first developed in the United States during the 1960s by breeder Ann Baker in Riverside, California. The breed is famous for its tendency to go limp like a 'ragdoll' when picked up, a trait that helped establish its widespread popularity.

Since Ragdolls are living animals and not manufactured products, their 'origin' refers to selective breeding rather than industrial production. They are now bred internationally by various catteries following standards set by feline registries such as The International Cat Association (TICA) or the Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA). There is no corporate ultimate owner, as the breed exists as a biological lineage maintained by independent breeders and pet enthusiasts worldwide.
