Now that you are bringing your Ragdoll home you need to make sure that your home is safe for your new pet.
1. Electrical Cords and Outlets
- Hide them and/or cover them
- Coat them with something kitten won’t chew
2. Dryer
- Make sure cat not in it when you start your dryer
3. Hiding Places / Chest of Drawers

4. Strings and Small Objects
- Choking hazards
- Off floor and in safe place
5. Medications
- Keep out of reach
6. Plants
- Some are poison to your cat
7. Windows
- Are the screens tight?
- Keep secure
8. Toilet Lid
- Keep down to prevent drowning
9. Closets
- Look before closing
10. Watch where you step
- Your Ragdoll likes to follow and be around you so be careful
