Which cat breed is right for you?
The Ragamuffin emerged in the 1990s as a separate breed from the Ragdoll, developed by breeders who wanted to expand the gene pool and introduce a wider array of colors and patterns. This is a large, heavy cat — weighing 10–20 pounds — with a broad chest, substantial bone structure, and a plush, rabbit-soft coat that resists matting. Ragamuffins come in every color and pattern, including mink, sepia, solid, and bicolor variations not found in Ragdolls.
Ragamuffins are exceptionally docile, trusting cats often described as "puppy-like" in their devotion. They greet visitors at the door, follow family members from room to room, and love being held — often going completely limp when picked up. Their patience and gentle nature make them outstanding companions for children and multi-pet households.

The Scottish Straight is the straight-eared sibling of the Scottish Fold, born in the same litters but without the ear-fold mutation. This medium-sized cat weighs 6–13 pounds and shares the Fold's round face, big eyes, and compact build — the only visible difference is the upright, normally shaped ears. They appear in all the same coat types, colors, and patterns as the Fold, from short dense coats to flowing longhair in tabby, solid, bicolor, and more.
Scottish Straights have the same sweet, mellow temperament as their folded-eared relatives — playful without being hyperactive, affectionate without being clingy. They enjoy interactive play and are known for their soft, chirpy voices. Friendly and adaptable, they do well with children, other cats, and cat-friendly dogs.
