That’s All You Need to Know About Persians

That’s All You Need to Know About Ragamuffins

Affectionate, intelligent and easygoing, the Ragamuffin will get along with everyone. They&#39;re easy to care for and form strong bonds with their owners. These gentle giants are best suited to life as indoor cats and may need a little encouragement to exercise, so make time for interactive play every day to keep them fit. It&#39;s not difficult to see why this breed is becoming increasingly popular.

Happy to laze around, Persians are sweet-natured and make great companions. They&rsquo;re high maintenance though so be prepared for <a href="/all-things-pet/bad-fur-day-read-our-cat-grooming-101" title="Link to Everypaw's Guide to Cat Grooming">daily grooming</a> to keep their gorgeous coats clean and tangle-free. They&rsquo;ll also need regular baths to look their best. Persians are more suited to being kept indoors and don&rsquo;t mind if their owner is out all day. They prefer a serene home and regular routine.

Ragamuffin cats make gentle, easygoing companions. With their docile nature, they&#39;ll get along with everyone in the family. They&#39;ll also be friends with any other <a href="/cat-insurance" title="Link to Everypaw's Cat Insurance page">cats</a> or cat-friendly <a href="/dog-insurance" title="Link to Everypaw's Dog Insurance page">dogs</a> in the household.

They&#39;re suited to indoor life and make ideal pets for most households. These gentle giants don&#39;t like to be left alone for long periods, so if you want a constant companion, a Ragamuffin could be the perfect pet.&nbsp;

The Ragamuffin is a relatively new breed formed from the <a href="/cat-insurance/cat-breed-guides/ragdoll-cat-insurance-care-and-health-advice" title="Link to Everypaw's Ragdoll cat breed guide">Ragdoll cat</a>. The Ragdoll was strictly controlled by its founder, Ann Baker, in California, USA, but some Ragdoll breeders wanted to introduce new colours and patterns. This wasn&#39;t allowed, so the group began breeding Ragdolls with <a href="/cat-insurance/cat-breed-guides/persian-cat-insurance-care-and-health-advice" title="Link to Everypaw's Persian cat breed guide">Persians</a> and other domestic longhair breeds. In 1994, the Ragamuffin breed was born.

The Cat Fanciers&#39; Association (CFA) recognised the breed in 2003 and awarded the breed&#39;s full championship status in 2011. The breed arrived in the UK in 2009 and has since become increasingly popular as longhair cats. If a Ragamuffin has caught your eye, and you want more information about this beautiful breed, this breed guide is for you.

These chunky little cats are the purr-fect blend of chilled out, independent and playful. So, whether they&rsquo;re part of a big family, or it&rsquo;s just you and your buddy, Persians are equally at home.

Persians are the perfect lap cat: docile, gentle and calm. They love to cuddle, but they&rsquo;re also playful and curious. This <a href="/cat-insurance/cat-breed-guides" title="Link to Everypaw's Cat Breed Guides">breed of cat</a> will be just as happy wandering around the house, snoozing on your lap or taking part in a tea party with the kids.

This easy-going temperament also means that your buddy usually doesn&rsquo;t mind too much if you&rsquo;re out at the office for most of the day. With a decent selection of toys and some quality time when you get home, they&rsquo;re happy to entertain themselves.

They might like the occasional stroll around the garden, but Persian&rsquo;s aren&rsquo;t really <a href="/all-things-pet/letting-your-cat-outside" title="Link to Everypaw's article about letting cats outside">outdoor cats</a>. They&rsquo;re not that interested in exploring, so whether you&rsquo;ve got a one-bed flat or a huge pad with acres of land, your buddy isn&rsquo;t bothered. And whether there are other pets or kids in the house, chances are everyone&rsquo;s going to get on just fine.

Ragamuffin kitten sitting in front of a scratching post

Ragamuffin <a href="/cat-insurance/kitten-insurance" title="Link yo Everypaw's Kitten Insurance page">kittens</a> are born white, and their coat colours and patterns develop as they get older. They mature slowly and don&#39;t reach their full size until about 4 years old.

Ragamuffins are friendly and laid-back, but early socialisation will help them grow into confident, happy adults.

Despite being a long-haired cat, Ragamuffins aren&#39;t as high-maintenance as you might expect, and a weekly brush is all they need.

They&#39;re affectionate, easy to handle and thrive on attention. These sociable cats form strong bonds with their owners and are often described as feline cuddly teddy bears. Ragamuffins don&#39;t have a high prey drive, so don&#39;t expect them to be good mousers.&nbsp;

Ragamuffins should be fed a well-balanced, nutritious diet that fits their age, size and energy requirements. If you <a href="/all-things-pet/buying-a-kitten-heres-what-you-should-look-out-for" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to buying a kitten">buy your kitten from a breeder</a>, they should provide you with a feeding schedule.

Try to feed your Ragamuffin at the same time every day. If you want to change their diet, do this gradually to avoid any tummy upsets.

Guidelines on the recommended amount to feed can be found on the side of the food packaging. You can also ask your vet which cat food they recommend, and how much to feed. Ragamuffins may be large, but they&#39;re not very active, so they can <a href="/all-things-pet/how-to-tell-if-you-have-an-underweight-or-overweight-cat" title="Link to Everypaw's guide on how to check your cat's weight">easily become overweight</a> if overfed.

Ragamuffin cats have medium-long coats that are soft, silky and dense with long, fluffy tails. Their coats have been described as &#39;<a href="/rabbit-insurance" title="Link to Everypaw's Rabbit Insurance page">rabbit</a>-like&#39;. They&#39;re a low-maintenance breed and just <a href="/all-things-pet/bad-fur-day-read-our-cat-grooming-101" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to cat grooming">need grooming</a> once a week with a brush or comb to keep their coats knot-free and tangle-free.

Baths are not usually needed, but if you want to bathe your cat, always use a shampoo specially formulated for cats. A hairdryer on a low setting can then be used to dry them.&nbsp;

Their coats come in every colour and pattern, with and without white. Because they are rare, all-white cats tend to be in higher demand. Eye colour depends on the coat colour and can be different colours (known as heterochromia).

Ragamuffins are intelligent and can be trained to play fetch and walk on a lead. <a href="/all-things-pet/kitten-litter-training-tips" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to litter training a kitten">Toilet, or litter training</a>, will be picked up quickly. Make sure there&#39;s at least one litterbox per cat in your house, and keep them scrupulously clean.

Ragamuffins are large cats with a hefty bone structure and need to be <a href="/all-things-pet/your-guide-to-cat-exercise" title="Link to Everypaw's cat exercise guide">encouraged to exercise</a>. Make time every day to play with them to keep them in shape - interactive toys like laser lights, fishing rod toys, etc., are ideal. They aren&#39;t very street-smart, so they&#39;re best suited to a life indoors.&nbsp;

These adorable fluffy furballs may be low-maintenance and generally healthy, but they still need to be well-cared for. So it makes sense, as a cat owner, to think about protecting your Ragamuffin with insurance.

<a href="/cat-insurance" title="Link to Everypaw's Cat Insurance page">Everypaw&#39;s Cat Insurance</a> is available from 8 weeks of age with a range of cover levels to choose from, so you can find cover that suits you both down to the ground. All our policies come with a range of additional benefits as standard, plus access to the <a href="/pet-portal-info" title="Link to Everypaw's Pet Portal information page">Pet Portal</a> for easy policy management.

With&nbsp;<a href="https://www.everypaw.com/cat-insurance">Everypaw&rsquo;s Cat Insurance</a>&nbsp;you have a range of <a href="/lifetime-pet-insurance" title="Link to Everypaw's Lifetime Pet Insurance">Lifetime cover</a> levels to choose from. The different levels range in cover offering up to &pound;10,000 in vet fee cover, so you can find the right insurance to cover for you and your cat.

Persian&rsquo;s can be known to suffer from health issues, so it can be wise to think about insurance. Everypaw&rsquo;s Lifetime cover can help, as you can be confident that any new illnesses your Persian suffers from will be covered. That includes the odd little hiccup to long-term ongoing conditions. With Everypaw, your Persian&rsquo;s in good paws.

Dental problems affect many cats, especially <a href="/pet-insurance-for-older-pets" title="Link to Everypaw's Pet Insurance for Older Pets">as they get older</a>. It&#39;s a good idea to <a href="/all-things-pet/how-to-keep-your-cats-teeth-clean" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to cleaning your cat's teeth">check your cat&#39;s teeth</a> regularly for any signs of periodontal disease (the area around the teeth). <a href="/all-things-pet/cat-bad-breath" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to the reasons for bad breath in cats">Bad breath</a> and difficulty eating can <a href="/all-things-pet/unhealthy-cat-teeth-spotting-the-signs-of-dental-disease" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to spotting the signs of dental disease in cats">indicate dental problems</a>.

Toothbrushing will help prevent plaque from forming. If a lot of plaque develops, it can lead to periodontal disease, bad breath, tooth decay, pain, and tooth loss.

<a href="/all-things-pet/autosomal-dominant-polycystic-kidney-disease-in-cats" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to AD-PKD in cats">Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)</a>&nbsp;(also known as Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney disease or AD-PKD) is an inherited condition that can affect Ragamuffins. Kidney cysts can be identified by ultrasound. An abnormal gene causes the disease.

Unfortunately, there&#39;s no cure, but treatments may improve their quality of life. Check with your breeder to make sure that their breeding lines have been screened and are free of the condition.

<a href="/all-things-pet/hypertrophic-cardiomyopathy-hcm-in-cats" title="Link to Everypaw's article about HCM in cats">Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats</a> is a serious heart condition that can affect Ragamuffins. Cardiomyopathy means disease of the heart muscle, and in HCM, the heart muscle becomes abnormally thick. This prevents the heart from working properly and leads to heart failure.&nbsp;

Affected cats need long-term medication to slow the progression of the disease. Ask when you purchase whether their cat breeding lines have been DNA tested and are negative for HCM.

Ragamuffins are large and aren&#39;t particularly active. If overfed, they can <a href="/all-things-pet/obesity-in-dogs-cats-rabbits" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to obesity in cats and dogs">put on too much weight</a>. This can make them more likely to develop health problems such as <a href="/all-things-pet/diabetes-in-cats" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to diabetes in cats">diabetes</a>, liver problems, and lower urinary tract disease. Your vet or weight management nurse can suggest a weight loss plan suitable for your cat if they need to slim down.

Common Ragamuffin Health Problems by Vetstream

The Ragamuffin is generally a hardy, healthy breed of cat. However, until 2006, outcrosses with Persian and Ragdoll breeds were allowed in the breed, so breed-related health issues inherited from these ancestors are still sometimes seen.

We&#39;ve got together with veterinary experts Vetstream to give you an idea of what to keep an eye out for in your Ragamuffin.

A Ragamuffin is a large cat with a medium to long coat that originated in California, USA. It became a separate breed from its cousin, the Ragdoll, in 1994. Ragamuffins come in a wide range of coat and eye colours. They&#39;re known for having a sweet expression and walnut-shaped eyes.

Ragamuffins are a large-sized cat. They&#39;re broad-chested and muscular, with a stocky build. Females can weigh between 3.6 and 6.8 kg, while males can weigh between 5.4 and 9 kg.

No cat is truly hypoallergenic. All cats produce the allergy-triggering protein Fel d 1, which is found in a cat&#39;s dander, saliva, and urine. Despite being low maintenance, Ragamuffins will shed regularly.

Ragamuffins are gentle and trusting, and are best suited to being kept indoors to keep them safe from disease, thieves, other animals, and accidents. If allowed outside, make sure your <a href="/all-things-pet/an-owners-guide-to-cat-microchipping" title="Link to Everypaw's guide to cat microchipping">cat is microchipped</a>, the area is secure, and your cat is wearing a collar with an ID tag. A secure enclosure, such as a catio, placed on a patio or balcony, can be the best of both worlds.
