Ragdoll Cat Forums

Providing the picture is attached- does Dude seem very fluffy for a raggy? He's only 5 months- does the fluffiness come later?

no picture!!!

The picture didn't come through.

However, I can say in my short 5 year experience, that many Ragdoll kittens can have a shorter coat, and as they mature, the coat does too. Most of the time, I see all of our Ragdolls get a much thicker, longer coat in the winter time, and then they will lose some of it during shedding season.

I would think that your Ragdoll will do the same.

Of course, we would still love photos!! What is his name?

Okay, I made it smaller and I think it's here. My daughter named him Romeo but he has become "Dude" and it really suits him. She will work Romeo into his registered name. He just turned 5 months old.

Hi

Dude is a very beautiful boy and I love his bicolour markings. New to being a ragdoll owner I cannot comment on fluffiness at this age - my girl is only 3 months. Can always get back to you in another 2 months But am sure others will be able to help you.

Dude's fluffy alright Look at that beautiful tail on him!! He's beautiful!

Not to worry -- when I got Simone, I thought she would never be fluffy -- but she changed - you just have to be patient...

That's cute! Our 'Nicky' is actually named SnickerDoodle, which has given him many nicknames over the years... Poor cat probably isn't really sure of his actual name. He's been called Nicky, Dude, Doodlebug, Snickers, Nickers, SnickerDoodlebug.... the list goes on and on and on!

And Teresa is right, Dude will get fluffier in time.... WOW! Just look at that Simone.....
