Purriwinkle Ragdolls

Kittens (photos appear at the bottom)

Announcements - Pictures of Annie and her new family are below

What can you expect from Purriwinkle Ragdolls - Our Ragdoll kittens are raised underfoot (on chairs, under beds, in cupboards, anywhere their little paws will carry them). Our kittens are in close contact with their human companions. They are continually nurtured to develop a sweet, loving and playful personality.

At Purriwinkle we breed for health, temperament and eye color. Purriwinkle kittens go to their forever homes at 3 months of age. They are spayed / neutered , de-wormed, vet checked, micro-chipped and vaccinated at 8 and 12 weeks before they go to their forever homes.

Purriwinkle Ragdolls come with an application for registration with "The International Cat Association" and a purchase contract in which there is a two year genetic health gaurantee.

Kittens go to their forever homes with a specially made kitten kit to assist and guide the forever family through this transition period of bringing home a new Ragdoll kitten.

Please Mum

Kittens still want Mom's milk and target her where ever, when ever.

Sleep Time

They all just fit up on this perch. They are growing so fast and becoming more independent by the day. Often I find now sleeping on their own.

Just Me

I'm ready for my closeup, really!

Kitten Tree

If you have 1 cat or 7, you have to have cat trees for them to hang out in.

5 week Momma

This can't go on much longer - all kittens at once. Momma needs a break

Real Food

Actually started the kittens on solid food at 4 weeks of age. I think Annie appreciated it

Kitten Tree

This is a great way for the kittens to learn about clawing on cat trees

Another Kitten Pile

The pile just gets bigger as the kittens grow. At least they still all like to sleep together

play tunnel

Bring on the new toys. The tunnel is always a hit with the kittens

Get the ball

At play. There has to be more than one way to get the jingle ball

Play Room

Kittens now have a larger play area to grow into. Lots of litter boxes at hand for the training

Three weeks old

We are three weeks old now and want your attention

7 for lunch

Annie has many positions that whe will take when feeding her crew

7 for dinner

Every couple of hours the milk bar is open

Play play play

At three weeks they are now very active and aware of what is going on. They play with each other and Mom.

I will Master this

Just a little further, OK Mom?

Somebody - Anybody

They are hard to resist

One more week

One more week is all it will take for them to figure out how to climb over the fence

Animal Attraction

This little boy comes to me as soon as I sit down. He climbed up on my shoulder and then curled in for a nap :)

Happy Family

Everyone has opened their eyes which means they can now hear too. Yup, kittens can't see or hear until they are 8 to 12 days old.

I see

Me too, me too, me too, me too, me too and me :)

The Thumb?

If I had a thumb I'd be sucking it!

Annie and Trina

Ok, Annie take advantage of the free help just don't forget you have the milk :P

Trina Helps

Obviously Trina loves kittens as she has moved right in to take care of the clean up

Waiting

Annie was so restless for days before the kittens arrived. This pregnancy was not at all like her previous ones. I was ready to take her to the vet.

Which bed to Choose

Annie has chosen the tent. Well guess what Sunshine that ain't gonna happen. I made up the kennel and moved her into it once the delivery started. She will stay where she is to finish the entire delivery. I was able to take the top off the kennel to assist when necessary.

This is The Place!!!

Annie nested in the tent all day. Rolling it around and making it just perfect for the delivery

Please Rub my Tummy

Annie loves to have her tummy rubbed during contractions - delivery. She delivered the first three kittens laying on her back

First Kitten Arrives

Half an hour after the start of major contractions our first little kitten arrives

First of Many Kitten Piles

Everytime you see a pile you do the count 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 sweet :)

New Home??

I have moved the family into our closet where I can keep it warm and hear if there are any problems

At Rest

It is such a joy to see all the kittens lined up in a row and Mommy looking content and relaxed
