Ragdoll Coat Colors and Patterns


The Ragdoll has a bunny soft, semi-longhair coat which does not require extensive grooming. Ragdoll kittens are born white, acquiring their coloring and coat pattern as they age. Full color development may not be evident until 2-3 years of age. 


The TICA Ragdoll Breed Standard for the Ragdoll cat allows the following colors:

Category: 

Pointed 

All Ragdoll cats must be pointed cats with blue eyes to be acknowledged for championship competition.

Divisions: (all Ragdolls must be pointed)

The basic tortie is a combination of black and red patches in a random manner

Lynx Division

Tabby markings in the point color

Particolor Division
