Hi Karen,
I just wanted to drop you a line to tell you
that Remi is doing great.
I love him to pieces and he has fit into our
home so well.
He already demands the respect from the
dogs. :-)
He has already changed so much since then. 
He is so sweet and he spends so much time
in my lap.
Have a great day.

Hi Karen,
 
It has been some time since we last talked but I wanted to send you some updated pictures of Remington to show you what a beautiful cat he has grown up to be. 
 
Since we purchase Remi we have had a little boy who is now 11 months old.   He and Remi are the best of friends and Remington is constantly were the baby is.  In fact at night when I am checking on the baby I have to lock Remi in a room otherwise he charges into the room ahead of me and hides under the crib.  He loves the baby to death and has to be around him all day.  It's actually quite funny to watch.  I am sure as the years go one they will be the best of friends.
 
Remi is so gentle with us and the baby and I never have to worry about his claws.  He does have a scary habit though of stalking the dogs, who happen to be Rottweilers, and attacking them.  He likes to nibble there ears if he can reach them.  I just hope it doesn't get him into trouble one day but at the moment they run from him when he is in attack mode.  :-)
 
Anyhow, hope all is well with you and your family and thanks again for breeding such beautiful cats in body and soul.
 
Kindest Regards,
 
Laurie

 

 

 

 

Karen,

Just so you know Ronin, is doing great.
He no longer sleeps with us right now,
unless we wants our toes nibbled on and
our face licked all night!  But he
is such a wonderful kitten, he is such
a joy to have around.  He gets along
now with our other pets so that is great.  
 
Well, talk to you soon.

Hi Karen,
She is a complete sweetheart except the nights
where she decides she wants to play at 3:00 in
the morning!
We are learning "down" and not to use my couch
as a scratching post. But otherwise she fits right in,
and I can't imagine what it was like without her.
Thank you for asking.

I actually maybe moving into another apartment
in Toronto and once I am settled I am thinking
about getting her a brother or sister.
Thanks for touching base. Have a great weekend.

Hi Karen, 
Was reading your testimonial page and thought that Molson looked incredibly like Gretzky. Thought you would like to see how Gretzky is doing here in Iqaluit. He is a beautiful boy and gives us a lot of joy. He is here with our other ragdoll, Pooh, and our Siberian husky, Mishka. Have a good day!

Yeah,  I love her- she's my little rug-rat! She LOVES that box (the photos of her in the 7-up box) She'll run into at and want to be dragged around- it's pretty funny but she's getting too big for it!

She got really dark in the face which I dont mind...do you think she'll get much darker? How do you tell a 'good coat' from a 'bad coat'? I love the fact that she doesn't shed much- makes life easier

Gotta run- am at work- talk to you later!

I hope things are going well with you. I got to see the beautiful kittens you had on your site. We purchased a digital camera for a Xmas present and have been busy snapping pictures of both the two legged and four legged kids. I have attached a picture of Thomas, although I am not positive I am sending it correctly. If it doesn't work could you let me know. Right now he's under the coffee table downstairs. Of course he still follows us around. I have recently decided that I have been too easy with the food dishes and am not going to fill them up when I see them empty. Instead I am trying to stick to the required amount for the day. So he may just follow me around because he knows I am the hand that feeds him! Actually as Luc says he has become more mellow lately and wants more attention and pets from us. And it really doesn't matter who does the petting, so the kids are very much apart of his life, which we are really happy about.

Take care.April

 
 

Here's un updated photo of Charlie (we got him from you in fall of 2001). He's the cutest cat on earth... we have had SO many people offer to adopt him. No way will that ever happen. 

My friend, Julie, just adores him. He's got a bit of a crush on her and drags her scarf around the house when she visits. When she buys a loft, you might be hearing from her. 

Ragdolls certainly are the most gentle, loving cat in existence. He lays around on his back a lot "exposing" his privates to the world. It's really funny. So trusting... you can even rub his belly and he won't bite. Most cats would never trust a human to do that. He growls a lot when he runs around with his little mouse... thinks he's so cool. What a goof. Anyway, we love him, our friends love him, Maggie loves him. All in all, it was a great decision.

Anyway, use my name, email, whatever. If you have a client that wants a second opinion, they can call me even!

Take care,
Michele

 

 

                

Hello Karen,

It has been some time since we last communicated with you, Laura and I hope you and all of your lovely Ragdolls are doing well. Thai and China have matured into gorgeous cats, especially Thai (the male) he is really stunning in his proportions and colouring.

Thai and China are happy, healthy and occasionally more than two hands full. Overly inquisitive by nature and always ready to explore those places and things they shouldn't get into. They are affectionate and gentle, although they can be very rambunctious when sibling rivalry comes into play. Since their coats have matured you can clearly see that they have definite traits from both their parents. I have attached pictures of the cats as two year olds, unfortunately these show them darker than they really are. I would say they lean more toward the blue point of their dad but they also have a tint (especially China) of their mothers chocolate point. Both have the subtle lynx stripping of their father particularly on their foreheads, upper fore legs and the banding on their tails. Thai has wonderful proportions and balanced markings he would definitely show well in competition but that doesn't interest us. Thai has leveled off at about 18 pounds (although he loves to eat) and is well defined and muscular, his sister is about 1.5 pounds lighter and more slender in build. In spite of his size China does not let Thai bully her with his extra weight as she is definitely the more dominant character of the two.

Thanks again for providing us with two of the sweetest, adorable and most beautiful cats on the planet.

Very best regards,

Pierre & Laura Hoppener

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hello! You probably don't remember me - being so busy and having had so many past customers - but I got a kitten from you almost two years ago.

The kitten I got was a female, blue mitted ragdoll.

I just had to write to let you know (although you've probably heard this thousands of times) that "Sky" is one of the most precious, adorable, sensitive, sweet, gentle and lovable cats I have ever encountered. She never plays rough, never gets angry, chews her food properly (unlike my others cats), and I'm the only person she trusts completely. I love all my cats (3) very much, but must admit that I love her the most - because she is so easy to love.I hope to someday be a future customer again, and look forward to having another loveable teddy bear.

Thanks Lisa

 

 

Hello Karen,
 
Hope you are doing well!
 
Max is a real joy...he is such a sweet, confident and loving boy!
Here are some shots of him  
 
I may need another kitten!!!
 
Hope you are having a good summer,
Warmly,Iole

 

Hi Karen

 
Just a note to let you know that Sparkles celebrated her 1st birthday Feb 15th. She had a lovely day and received lots of gifts.
 
Sparkles is growing big and beautiful.
 
Here are some photos of Sparkles at Christmas time.
 
Bye Grace

 

 

 

I thought you may want to see how Oscar and Mushroom are doing. This is a picture of them in their favorite entertainment location, on the window sill. Oscar is about 15 lbs and he turned 1 in mid March/04. He is not a risk taker, and would never jump to the window sill so we had to buy him this pedestal in order for him to look out the window. He is not an athletic cat…..lol...... On the other hand Mushroom, who weighs in at around 12 lbs is much more quick to test. He is very much athletic and has no problem getting on the tiny window sill in order to see the birds…lol  

So here they are in all their glory, let me know what you think.

Thank you, hope all is well.

 

Mark and Sue,

 

 

 

 

 

I think...only cat and dog lovers can enjoy this picture ! ! !
Yesterday was Rylie's 9th birthday.
Hope you have a great day....

 

PS...Fergus is doing just great....he is Wild and Wonderful !

 

  This isn't a great picture of "Smudge" as she doesn't stay still enough for us!!! We are just doing fabulously. She has taken to us so well, and already follows me everywhere. She has slept in her little carrying case up in our bedroom both nights without a peep, and we have had no accidents!! We just love her to death, and I think she and I have bonded beautifully - so you don't need to have any doubts whatsoever. When she gets a little weary at the end of the day, she parks on my lap to watch a little tv before bed and purrs all night. I think she is very happy here, and is never at a loss for things to do. She loves to sit on top of her crate in the kitchen, and look out over the deck at the  hummingbirds. Thank you so much - she is our pride and joy.

Hi Karen. 
Just thought you'd like to see how Blue Belle and Willow are getting along.  She has integrated herself into my home extremely well and gets along famously with both Willow and Bear.

She still sleeps with me and cuddles when I watch TV.  She is such a darling kitty.
Thanks again Karen.  Take care.

Grififn is fitting right in.  He and Meadow (our other cat) are getting along great now.  They tear through the house playing games together and playing tricks on everyone else!  He is SO funny, and SO cuddly. 

I took him to the office with me for a day and my boss liked him so much that now he's thinking about getting one.  I gave him your website address.  Can't thank you enough for such a fantastic kitten!
Thanks again!

Hi Karen

Just thought I'd forward this set of photos to you.  We went to Disney this March break and Willow stayed in this fantastic CatNap Cottages here in town.  The lady is younger then me but is kitty crazy!  This was the greatest place it even had fish tanks and every condo had at least 2 levels and a window to the outside.  Willow was out most of the time for free roam because she was so social with the other cats.  Anyway she sent this note when we got home and just thought you might like to see how Willow has turned out.  Hope all is well with your family.

I don't know if you remember me but I purchased a cat about 7 years ago from you - Frank.
Frank is wonderful and healthy, beautiful temperament and gorgeous to look at. He is an amazingly well adjusted and layed back cat. My daughter is a veterinarian and Frank is used by her in demonstrations of grooming, brushing teeth etc. He is also a therapy cat and has been certified the Red Cross as a cat to be trusted with the elderly, infirmed and very young people. He regularly visits schools to educate young children and nursing homes to provide company to the infirmed and elderly. I am sending you a few pictures of Frank in a few of his many poses.

 
Thank you for allowing me to share in the joy of owning one of your gorgeous cats. If perhaps you happen to have an older cat that would adjust to Frank and is non aggressive I would love to talk to you about getting a second cat.

Toby and Dawson

Hi Karen,

Toby and Dawson are doing great, they are our two babies.
I think Dawson still knows he is the boss but loves Toby to pieces. They play together but Dawson gets tired easy but Toby keeps going and then finally Dawson jumps on his window seat that Toby can't jump up to yet to get away from him. In this picture I actually put Toby up there with him, they both enjoy it so much.
Toby still gets in the bed with us every night and just purrs into your ear, he is our little baby.
They are so loveable and pleasant, I can't imagine not having them.
Thanks for all of your help and I'm so glad I finally got a second one.
I'll keep sending you new pictures.

Thanks,
Melissa & Colin



 

 
     

Hi Karen,

 
Just wanted to send you a couple of pictures of our two Ragdolls we adopted from you. Dixie and Pekoe are both full grown now.  They are both healthy, full of fun and mischief and are absolutely delightful.  They are very close and truly love one another.  We have many friends and relatives that ask where they can go to find such beautiful, good natured cats.  We are always glad to send them your way.  Thanks again for our kitties.  Debbie.

 

 

Hiya Karen,

Here is a really good picture of Kona and Meka.  I thought I had better write and tell you that we received the papers and to thank you for your promptness.

Hello Karen:
 
I just was checking out your website, and thought I'd drop you a quick line and update on Monty.  He is doing just great.  The shedding has slowed down, thank goodness!  I was quite concerned for some time, because it seemed to be excessive.  He just loves to be combed so that helps.
 
He is approximately 17 lbs and still growing but seems to be in a growth slump just now.  His coat is coming in beautifully, and he is SOO handsome! You can judge by the pic I have attached. He is 14 months old in this pic and is sitting on the counter in the bathroom just after being combed.
Anyway, that's the update.  I can't believe he's been with us for 13 months now. We're enjoying every minute of him.  You can feel free to post his gorgeous little face on your website if you like!  . He really otta be in pictures!

Karen: We picked up our kitten from you on Aug 1 and wanted to send you some photos of him.  His name is Monty and he is wonderful.  Everybody who meets him falls in love with him.  He is the most talked about cat in the neighbourhood. He loves to be picked up and held.  He also is no longer afraid of heights, in fact he tries to get as high as possible.(up the screen on the window at full speed).  Also we are going to get him some wet food and right now he is eating Hill's p/d dry. I can get that food in cans and I was wondering if I should stick with the HIlls brand.  Monty loves to eat and since he will be a big cat I wanted to get a very nutritious food and one that doesn't make huge stools.  Do you have any advice on tasty & nutritious cat food?
The vet clinic said we should stick to one brand.
Thanks again for our amazing kitten.
 
Sincerely,
Nancy Palermo

 

Hi Karen,

 
At just over 4 months the kittens are coming on a main. I just thought you would enjoy pictures of them. Gabe's name has been changed to Sammy.
"Gabe" just did not work when you are calling them or talking affectionately. He seemed to respond better to the name change. It looked in the beginning like Maggie would be the "alpha" cat as my vet said when she first saw them, but it's shaping up differently now. He's the stronger, more determined personality in play and she gives way to him all the time. He reduces her to a spectator all the time because he takes away every toy she tries to play with. He is also tiring me out with his retrieving - several sessions a day when a coil or ball is tossed my way for throwing. I've never known a cat so dog-like.
They're so gorgeous, so cuddly and loving, I marvel at them constantly.
I'm trying to get a good picture of them together to put on your site eventually, but it's proving elusive as of yet.
Sincerely, Margo


Hi Karen, 

Just a quick note to let you know that Saja and Yashi are the best of friends now (it took about 4-5 days).

Of course now that we have two Ragdolls we can’t believe how nice it is having more than one – they definitely keep themselves and us entertained.  Good exercise for Yashi (they chase each other around quite a bit), and I believe Yashi has become more relaxed personality wise.  The pictures on Wednesday are the first evidence of their budding friendship.  The one on Friday is just a nice picture of Saja one of the cat trees (he’s explored them all).  Thanks again for the beautiful cats – they really make our home.

Hi Karen,

 
Just thought I'd send you a note to give you an update on our new kitten. We've named him Macbeth and he's doing great! He's such a wonderful kitten. He follows us around everywhere. Its like having a lapdog. Our other cats are still hissing a lot, but they will eventually get over it. Our two dogs have basically adopted Macbeth as you can see in the attached pictures.
 
Thanks again for the wonderful kitten,

Hi Karen,

It has been 3 yrs. since we got "Murphy" and I must say the whole family just loves him silly. He is quite spoiled as you can tell from the pictures. He loves to get under the covers every night and will even nudge you if he can't get the covers over him or if there is no room for him to squeeze in.

We moved to Ottawa last summer from Nova Scotia so I am that much closer to your place. I have been laying hints to my hubby about a brother for Murphy to play with!!!!! ha ha

Murphy is the most sweetest, handsome cat ever!!! I am so glad I got him! He likes to go outside on his harness everyday for fresh air and he follows me everywhere in the house. He even sits on the side of the tub while I have a bath.

Anyways, I am so glad I got Murphy and I will keep you posted more frequently with updated pictures.

Many thanks,

Murphy's mom,
Sandra


Hi Karen: 

 

We were looking at your site the other day, my niece is interested in a Ragdoll and we were reading all the testimonials and funny notes, here are pictures of Koko and Ragz, they have been part of our family since 2000

Hi Karen:

I don't know if you remember me, but I adopted a ragdoll kitten from you 14 years ago.  My name is Susan Chalmers.   His name is Bentley and he has the same name as his father.  He is still doing great at age 14 years.  He is passed out on the couch as we speak .  He had a bath today, so he is very tired.  He is so good natured, I would recommend the breed to anyone. He never cares, no matter what kitten I bring home from work.   I am hoping to send you a picture as soon as we get our scanner working, or I may just send you a photo. I would like to get another ragdoll, but I hope Ben keeps going for a long time!!  Sue
