Is a Ragdoll Cat Really Different from Other Cats?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I’ve heard it’s the breed’s especially easy-going temperament and tendency to flop when you pick them up that distinguishes them from other cats. Otherwise, they look like any other Persian/Angora/Burmese mix to me. I wish I weren’t allergic.. They’re quite pretty!
