A Ragdoll is for Life, not just for Christmas
The UKRCC will not be rehoming any Ragdoll cats to new families during the period 1st December 2008 to 5th January 2009. This policy is put in place to prevent any Ragdolls being given as presents this Christmas. In addition the UKRCC strongly believes that the period running up to and including Christmas and the New Year is not the right time to introduce a Ragdoll into the family. Christmas is, by its nature, a very busy, hectic time, involving noise, decorations, visitors in most households etc. and a newly introduced Ragdoll cat can easily be stressed and frightened by all the festivities, within the home. It is important that any Ragdoll cat is introduced into the home when life is calm and quiet, so that the settling in period is as stress free as possible.
If you have a Ragdoll cat which you need to rehome, if it is at all possible please wait until the New Year before contacting us and then we shall do all we can to help you. If you need your Ragdoll cat removed from your home immediately and cannot wait until January, then please call us on 0870 766 9823.
If you wish to offer a home to an older Ragdoll cat when the festivities are over then please contact us from the 5th January 2009 by completing our online adoption application at
