Ragdoll

Named for going limp like a rag doll when picked up, the Ragdoll is a large, blue-eyed cuddle machine. It follows its people room to room, greets them at the door, and craves lap time. Gentle to a fault, it suits families with children and other pets. The silky semi-long coat needs regular brushing, and the breed carries some risk of heart disease (HCM).
