Notredame Ragdolls

Breeding beautiful Blue eyed, healthy floppy kittens to love and cherish

IMPORTANT NEWS

A new  defective gentic flaw has come to light in many Australian Ragdolls.

If you are thinking of purchasing any breeding stock, it is recommended that you request a genetic DNA test showing the statis of ANY potential  diseases that the cat may carry.  The recommended test is carried out in USA  for approx. USD$40.  In particular the test for MPSM as there are carrier cats in Australia.  This defect has slipped in  with almost all Breeders being unaware of its presence  and in no way reflects on any one person.  It is important that all Breeders take  the responsibility and have  their current cats tested to confirm their carrier status, to eradicate this unwanted mutation from our beautiful cats.

Testing can be arranged by contacting the following web site:

For pet owners, be wary of  paying too much for any kittens regardless of colour  and only a slight difference in price between males and females.  It is also unwise to purchase any undesexed kittens/cats.

WHERE IS NOTREDAME RAGDOLLS 

Located in a tranquil rural setting on the mid North Coast of New South Wales, west of Port Macquarie in Australia.

Notredame Ragdoll Cattery was established in the early 1990's when we acquired our first Ragdoll pet cats, Abbey and Kaluha.  They were just adorable and our love affair with this beautiful fun loving breed began.  Next came our first show cats, Sinatra, Leo and Lotte.  From these three cats we commenced learning all we could about the breed, together with the hands on knowledged gained attending shows, speaking with other Ragdoll Breeders, and of course the Judges.   After two years we were confident enough to tackle the next step .....breeding.
