Ragdoll cats are a very popular breed in Australia, thanks to their lovely temperament, calm and gentle nature and their lovable affectionate traits. They adore attention and cuddles making them a great family cat.
How long do Ragdoll cats live?
A ragdoll cat can live for between 12-15 years when cared for well. This means providing them excellent high quality nutrition, regular vet checks that watch out for a common health issue like Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and encourage low to moderate exercise. Start a ragdoll kitten off with the very best right from the start. High quality proteins, gentle grooming and loads of socialisation will set your ragdoll up for the very best life.
Do Ragdoll cats shed?
A ragdoll has luscious silky hair that will benefit from a regular brushing routine. Brushing once or twice a week will remove loose hair helping to prevent tangles, and use this time as a relaxing snuggle time. You may like to consider increasing the brushing routine during each quarter as shedding increases to keep them in optimal condition. Whilst regular baths are not necessary, you may wish to use a gentle cat shampoo every so often. Ears and Eyes should be checked regularly and any wax, dirt or tear staining removed.
What is a good food for a Ragdoll in Australia?
Hydration is very important for all cats, specifically males due to their thinner urethras. Always include a wet cat food with their daily meals. All meals should be complete and balanced to provide necessary nutrients for a long happy life. You can shop our range of healthy, nutritious Cat Food shipped Australia Wide today.
