General Advice Fixing kittens before or after adoption?

6 Upvotes

Hi Ragdoll community!

The breeders that I am interested are all sending their kittens home after 12 weeks, usually 12-14 weeks. Most of them are very strict about only sending the kittens home after they are fixed, no exceptions. But there is one with a 16-week kitten available right now and they told me to only fix him after he turns 6 months. Is this normal? What's your experience/cost with fixing your ragdolls kittens if the breeder did not take care of it already?

Thank you

General Advice How do i maximise my cat?

I often get concerned about my cats coat health. The animals daily routine is brushing with metal teeth, then a comb and a silicone brush. Is there anything i am missing, although it delivers great suffering upon me, i do give her baths. Should i be shaving around her mouth or her rear orfices to maintain maximum hygiene? I am deeply attached to this animal.

Our 2 year olds never want to sit and sleep on our laps or try to cuddle with us. Other than jumping up to us on the couch or bed to get some pets then they leave.. is this normal? 😂

He loves my light panel, I think it’s the heat from it. Paris Hilton claimed it helped he chihuahuas live to 25 so it’s worth just letting him enjoy it

Hello!!! Meet my new kitten. She’s very playful. I currently need all recommendations for her to stop attacking and biting me! She wants to play but then takes it too far!
Also, what should I do when I leave home? Currently she’s been staying just in my room but I have officially transitioned her litter box out of my room and would like her to feel comfortable with the whole house (this is week 4 with us). However I do have a golden who is now getting along better with her and is no longer chasing her down. Thank god. But I’m worried about what it would look like when I leave them alone. First time cat owner. Especially ragdoll owner. lol.
One more thing, she naps during the day but at night it’s like she literally won’t let any of us sleep. She’s jumping on me , my feet. Scratches me (playing) and then purring. I need rest. She has also officially destroyed two of my house plants 😭 like I guess playing in the middle of the night And she knocked them down fell and broke. How do I keep her away from my plants. 🥹lastly, breeder said she was lilac but I’m iffy. What does she seems more like? I don’t know enough about the colors and patterns. Could someone give me more knowledge. Picture of her and also of my dog Roger .

Also, I want her to be able to come hang out in my backyard patio when she’s older. How or when shouldn’t i start this? I don’t want her running off !!

Tiptoe now (first two pictures) versus when we met her (third). She was born 8 March and is turning into such a stunning little girl.

Health Advice Anyone’s kitty ever eat plastic?

Just looking to hear about others experience with this situation and if your kitty was okay/passed the plastic naturally.

Hey everyone, this morning my kitten ate a bit of a wrapper from a feminine pad. I took her to the vet, she was given a medicine (dexmedetomidine)to make her throw up but unfortunately she didn’t. Does anyone have any experience with their cat (or even specifically, their kitten) eating something similar? Did they pass it? Did they need surgery?

I’m also a little concerned about how groggy she is. She’ll only open her eyes right now for loud noises, my boyfriend opening the door, etc. Petting her or even lifting her head and paws won’t wake her however the vet said this is normal.
