OMG I just :wub: :wub: :wub: your babies!!!! I love how sweet ragdolls are and they can get so huge! But they are so loving which is why I almost got some!

I've got to second what Angel said about this forum! We aren't into imposing rules on people! I hate when you go to forums and it's all about rules!!

A belated warm Welsh welcome to the forum

Those kitties are GORGEOUS!!
:wub: :wub: :wub:

I can totally relate to being unsure what's allowed posting wise etc. I came to here from a very strict forum and felt quite worried at first as to whether I was breaking 'rules' unknowingly, but it really is so friendly and happy here. :wub: You'll soon settle in and feel totally at home.

Hello and welcome :wave:

I'm originally from Cheltenham, though now based in Berkshire. Great to see your work and to come across someone else from Cheltenham who stitches.

Uhm, what are rag doll cats? Does it just mean they're fluffy?

Hi Kazzi - lived in Swindon for a while as I went to college there :D

Mabel - Ragdolls are called it because they are supposed to go floppy when you pick them up and they are all cuddly like a toy. Bit of a myth methinks as neither of mine like being picked up :lol: They also tend to be housecats

Ragdolls are a breed of cat. Typically they are housecats who enjoy fusses so much that they go all floppy once they've been picked up. Not all of them do mind, but on that note, not all Husky dogs are energetic.

Not all animals of a breed possess all the qualities lended to that breed. But for the most part, they're there.
