Ragdoll Cat Forums

So I thought this would be a fun thread!

What is your favorite pattern/color and post a pic of it, if you have it!

If other - please describe!


Mine are seal colorpoints and blue bi-colors!

I think they seal colorpoints are exotic looking with their dark fur and bright blue eyes.

I like the bi-colors because they are almost "regal" looking.

But of course, all are quite beautiful!

I love the light colours - lilac and chocolate because I like that their bodies stay light coloured. And red! Pretty much anything in red / cream. Tabby patterning works for me because it breaks up the solid colour and makes it look lighter.

For pattern, I like colourpoints (light coloured) or any colour with extra white - high white, mid high white, etc.

To my shame as a Raggie fan I don't like seal, and especially not seal bicolours! LOL The stereotypical Raggie is not for me, I'm afraid.

I have to admit I just like them all
I own two raggies and both are Blue Bi Colors
Leyla who is as cute as a buttton


Cello my handsome boy

oh god, I do love leyla - wish I could take her home!

Both your kitties are quite beautiful! Like I stated above - blue bi-colors are my favorite!


As for in general, I guess I am much more traditional - I think the lynx are lovely cats too, but I think the traditional colors are easier to recognize the breed!

beautiful. I tend to like all except blue since they are too close to the one I lost in Feb.

I especially love my redboy. He was my first raggie and so gentle.

Mykah a seal point almost 7 months. He sure looks mad due to an eye infection I guess.


both my boys.

It is good thing we all like different ones or it would be a mighty dull world.

I like the traditional colors - blue and seal
All patterns - bicolor, mitted, colorpoint and lynx

My signature and website has the king/queens that live with me.

You left out a lot of choices. All colors come in all three patterns and lynx and you left out the mitted pattern, chocolate and the dilutes lilac and cream... That is a lot of "other."

You can only put up to 10 choices, so I just did the most common I could think of!

I'm a traditionalist... I like the seal color pointed cats but really appreciate most of the others as well. This is a good thread for people, including breeders to see what is appealing...



Sassy posing about a year ago...

The "most common" colors are seal and blue (seal and its dilute). Certainly mitted is a common pattern. ; ) It is the pattern that created the Ragdoll - Daddy Warbucks! Traditionally, seal mitteds have been the most popular Ragdolls as well. (The bicolor only gained popularity as the show hall avoided mitteds because of Birman breeder opposition and the colorpoint because of Himalayan breeder opposition. Judges tended to only final bicolors, which meant Ragdoll breeders brought out their bicolors and left mitted and colorpoint cats at home. Pet buyers -and many breeders- continued to prefer mitted kittens.)
