Introduction of the RagaMuffin Cat

RagaMuffins are a relatively new breed of cat that was developed in the 1990s. They are known for their sweet, affectionate nature and their beautiful, longhaired coats. RagaMuffins are also very intelligent and playful, making them a great choice for families with children.

History of the RagaMuffin Cat

RagaMuffins were developed by crossing Ragdolls with other longhaired breeds, such as the Persian and the Angora. The goal was to create a cat that had the sweet, affectionate nature of the Ragdoll with the longer, more luxurious coat of the Persian and Angora. The first RagaMuffins were born in 1994, and the breed was officially recognized by the Cat Fanciers' Association in 2003.

Characteristics of the RagaMuffin Cat

RagaMuffins are medium to large cats, with males weighing 12-18 pounds and females weighing 8-12 pounds. They have a semi-longhaired coat that is available in a variety of colors and patterns. RagaMuffins are known for their sweet, affectionate nature and their love of being petted and cuddled. They are also very intelligent and playful, making them a great choice for families with children.

Care of the RagaMuffin Cat

RagaMuffins are relatively easy to care for. They need to be brushed regularly to prevent mats and tangles, and they should be bathed every few months. RagaMuffins are also prone to ear infections, so it is important to clean their ears regularly.

Health of the RagaMuffin Cat

RagaMuffins are generally healthy cats, but they are prone to a few health problems, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and polycystic kidney disease (PKD). HCM is a condition in which the heart muscle becomes thickened, and PKD is a condition in which cysts develop in the kidneys. Both of these conditions can be serious, so it is important to have your RagaMuffin cat regularly checked by a veterinarian.
