Ragdoll Cat VS. Ragamuffin Cat.


What are the differences between the two beautiful cat breeds?


These two large-sized cat breeds usually weigh 10 to 20 pounds. With positive reinforcement, Ragdoll and Ragamuffin cats learn quickly and can pick up tricks as well as good behaviors such as using a scratching post.



The Ragdoll and Ragamuffin Cats are an all-around best buddy to just about everyone. They love their human families even children and will get along with other pets fairly well. Docile, sweet, and happy to relax for a good cuddle session, these loving Ragdoll and Ragamuffin cats will even greet their humans at the door when they come home. If you’re looking for a companion, you can’t find a much better choice than one of these easygoing felines.


Unlike many cats, Ragdolls are notable for collapsing into the arms of anyone who holds them, even if they are cradled on their back. They love their people, greeting them at the door, following them around the house, and leaping into a lap or snuggling in bed whenever given the chance. They often learn to come when called or to retrieve toys that are thrown for them.

Ragdoll cat is possibly the most laid back of all the domestic cat breeds. These cats are basically content and undemanding and tolerate most situations. They have an extremely gentle and relaxed nature, and make loyal and devoted pets. There is an old wives tale that these cats are immune to pain, but this is totally untrue. Their relaxed disposition stems from a very trusting nature, not a lack of feeling. Ragdolls have nice manners and are easy to live with. 

Like his cousin the Ragdoll, the Ragamuffin is a huggable lug who wants nothing more than to follow his people around and sit in a lap whenever possible. A nice combination of sweet and smart, he is often described as a puppylike for his friendly personality and willingness to play fetch, learn tricks and walk on a leash. He greets visitors warmly and would meet you at the door with a martini if only he had opposable thumbs. 

Given their name, it should be no surprise that Ragamuffins have the tendency to stretch out and go limp in their owner’s arms like, well, a rag. Often called “puppy-like,” these large fur balls are attention-seekers, who enjoy playtime, walk on a leash, and can even learn a trick or two. This is a mellow cat but one who craves attention. Don’t get a Ragamuffin if you will have to leave him alone for many hours every day.


The word most often used to describe them is docile, but that doesn’t mean they are inactive. They like to play with toys and enter into any family activities. With positive reinforcement in the form of praise and food rewards when they do something you like. In a small, sweet voice, they remind you of mealtime or ask for petting but are not excessively vocal. 



Both pedigreed cats and mixed-breed cats have varying incidences of health problems that may be genetic in nature. Problems that may affect the Ragdoll and Ragamuffins are,

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a form of heart disease that is inherited in Ragdolls and Ragamuffins. A DNA-based test is available to identify cats that carry one of the mutations that cause the disease.

The Ragamuffins can be also predisposed to Polycystic kidney disease. This condition made its way to Ragamuffins from their Persian cat ancestors and can cause renal failure.

An already large breed, Ragdolls and Ragamuffins can have a tendency to overeat, which makes them more susceptible to obesity.



Cats are carnivores and every cat must obtain 41 different and specific nutrients from their food. The proportion of these nutrients will vary depending on age, lifestyle, and overall health, so it's not surprising that a growing, energetic kitten needs a different balance of nutrients in her diet than a less active senior cat. Other considerations to bear in mind are feeding the right quantity of food to maintain 'ideal body condition' in accordance with feeding guidelines and catering to individual preference regarding wet or dry food recipes.
