Ragdollen er en massiv stor katt med middels benstamme og muskuløs
kropp. |
Se tegning nederst på siden av riktig profil/hode og øreplasering.

Mitted
(04) er den varianten som er mest lik Hellig Birma i mønster.
Den skal ha hvite støvler og hansker. Den skal ha hvit hake og
hvit strime/strek under hele magen, fra haken og til haleroten. Det er
også ønskelig med en eller flere " dråper "
hvit på nesen. Eller et såkalt "timeglass" m hvitt.
|
Colourpoint
har farvede ben, samme farge som hale og maske i ansiktet. Den blir gylden
over ryggen. Feil er hvite flekker på denne varianten.
|
Bicolour
(03) skal ha et hvitt bliss i ansiktet, en omvendt V. Resten
av ansiktet og ørene skal ha en av fargevariantene, den samme fargen
skal også halen ha. - En bicolour Ragdoll skal som andre bicolourvarianter ikke overskride 3/4 med hvitt. Den skal ha hvit bryst og buk. Den skal ha så mye hvitt som mulig på bena, men det er ingen feil om den har brune strimer eller flekker på bena,men utstillingsmessig er det en fordel med helt hvite ben. - Den kan også ha hvite flekker på ryggen. Det beste utstillingsmessig er at inntrykket forfra på katten er hvitt. - Selv så mener jeg det er et stort pluss at bicolouren har en hvit flekk på ryggen. Da ser man fra alle vinkler at det er en bicolour. Alle Ragdoll er hvite fra fødselen, men fargen i ansiktet og på halen kommer raskt til syne. Fargene ellers på kroppen utvikler seg meget sent. En kan tidligst ved 6 ukers alder se en aning farge der pelsen ikke skal være hvit. Det kan gå hele 4 år før fargen på pelsen er ferdig utviklet. Fra først av å være hvit så begynner den svakt å gråne nede i bunnen av pelsen. Det grå utvikler seg sakte til å få den rette fargetonen. De skal få den samme fargen på pelsen, men i en lysere tone som de har på halen og i ansiktet. - Om en ikke kjenner til utviklingen av bicolourens farger så kan en lett gjøre katten urett. Den gråtonen som er i pelsen ganske lenge er nemlig ikke av de mest flatterende farger, men den er et ledd i fargeutviklingen. Flekkene de event. har på bena er ofte like mørke som på maskefargen. - For å avle fram bicolour så parres en bicolour med enten en colourpoint eller en mitted. Om du parrer en bicolour på bicolour så er sjansen stor for at det blir en "high white." Det vil si at grensen med 3/4 hvit blir overskredet. - Feil på bicolouren er hvitt på halen og ørene |

Moderately long length, with abundant guard hairs, but minimal woolly undercoat 10 .. Color of body and points (The 10 points for color are to be divided 5 for white markings and symmetry, and 5 for body and point color.) GENERAL: the ideal Ragdoll is a medium to large, moderately longhaired, blue-eyed pointed cat. The point markings may be covered by a range of white overlay patterns. The head forms a broad, equilateral triangle, modified by a gently rounded muzzle. The eyes are large, vivid blue ovals. The rectangular body is large and long, broad and solid, with heavy boning. It has moderately long legs, and a long plumed tail. The naturally non-matting, moderately long coat has abundant guard hairs, with minimal woolly undercoat, and flows with the body. The Ragdoll is bred to conform as perfectly as possible to the moderate type of the foundation cats. HEAD: size and shape: proportionately large and broad. Triangular shaped, where all sides are of equal length as measured from the outside of the base of the ear to the end of the gently rounded muzzle. Appearance of a flat plane between ears. Cheeks in line with wedge. Allow for jowls in adult males. When whiskers and fur are smoothed back, the underlying bone structure is apparent. EYES: large, vivid blue ovals. Wide set and moderately slanted, complementing wedge. EARS: medium-sized. Wide set and moderately flared, continuing the line of wedge. Wide at base with rounded tips, and tilted forward. PROFILE: slightly curving; ending in straight, medium-length nose. Chin well-developed, strong, in line with nose and upper lip. NECK: heavy and strong. BODY: large and long, broad and solid, with heavy boning. Rectangular in shape, with a full chest and equal width across shoulders and hindquarters. Body firm and muscular, not fat. Moderate stomach pad on lower abdomen acceptable. Females may be substantially smaller than males. Allow for slow maturation in young adults. LEGS: heavily boned, moderately long. Hind legs longer than front. Shorter fur on front legs, longer fur on hind legs, with full, feathery britches. PAWS: proportionately large, round and feather-tufted. TAIL: long, with full plume. COAT: the naturally non-matting moderately long fur is characterized by abundant guard hairs and minimal woolly undercoat. It flows with the body. Ruff preferred. Short on face, longer on ruff, shorter on shoulder blades, lengthening toward tail. Allow shorter coats in unaltered adults, and seasonal variations. PENALIZE: coat: thick undercoat, standing off from the body. Eyes: small or round. Eye color: very pale blue; or blue so dark as to appear black. Nose: roman nose. Body: cobby body low on legs. Short tail; non-directional lump on tail. DISQUALIFY: nose: any break. Color: body and point color other than those listed; eyes other than blue. Various: directional kink in tail. Crossed eyes. Extra toes. (The above penalties and disqualifications apply to all Ragdolls. Additional penalties and disqualifications are listed under each pattern description.)

All Ragdolls are pointed, but points are partially overlaid with white in the Bi-color and Van patterns. Body: even, subtle shading is permissible, but clear color is preferable.
