Your RagaMuffin kitten will grow to be one of the largest cats with a coat that has a soft rabbit-like texture.  They enjoy having their tummies rubbed and will often lie on their backs in invitation. These huggable, lovable felines have the ability to go limp in your arms. They are considered to be a medium to large cat.  Maturity is reached between 4 to 5 years of age, and the RagaMuffin remains playful throughout their adult life.

 

The RagaMuffin will crave attention from their family members. Most of them will develop traits usually associated with puppies, such as: following their family around the house, and waiting for you to come home at the door. Ragamuffins are very intelligent, they are easily taught to walk on a leash and may be taught to do tricks such as fetching, rolling over, sitting up to beg, etc. They get along well with children, dogs and other cats.

 

Having been bred for an extremely docile nature, the RagaMuffin thinks everyone should be their friend. Not knowing the dangers of the outside world, they are strictly ''indoor members of the family''.  To read why it is so important to keep cats indoors visit:   http://home.hiwaay.net/%7Ekeiper/indoors.htm

 

Since the Ragamuffin does not possess normal instincts with which to defend itself, at least not in the same way other cats do, we strongly discourage de-clawing them and instead clipping their nails. They tend to be "soft pawed" which means they use their claws less frequently when playing.  To read more information about declawing visit:  facts_about_declawing.htm
