Do Female Cats Spray/bleed When They Are In Heat.?
Posted on February 23rd, 2010 9 commentsI want to breed my female Ragdoll and I am wondering what to expect from her when she is in heat. She is only 10 weeks now so I know I have awhile.
I also don’t want her to get a nasty female cat “attitude” from not being spayed. Any advice? -

Really Nervous Ragdoll Female Kitten?? Advice Needed.?
Posted on February 2nd, 2010 4 commentsI purchased a ragdoll kitten last week – when we brought her home she had major symptoms of stress from the relocation.
I have had her in my room with me and have waited to introduce her to the house and whole family, and my two other cats with fear of her reactions to it. I was thinking within a couple days she would be fine to ‘let her loose’ throughout the home.
We spend a ton of time with her – all of us take turns (1 or 2 ppl at a time) to go up with her, cuddle her, play with her.
I spent a ton of money on her wanting a ragdoll for their boosted about temperament. Sometimes she will fall asleep with me and the next minute run off fearful if I try to pick her up.
I have a male Maine Coon and a male part Himalayan which I purchased when they were babies and they were never like this as kittens – they were super friendly and trusting (no running away or hiding underbeds) and to this day are the most amazing cats anyone could hope for.
So my question is:
Does a kittens behaviour depict their behavior as an adult? I spent the money on her as I wanted that wonderful rag doll temprament that I have heard about but I am just not seeing it…and it makes me nervous.
I don’t know what else to do to have her trust me and stop being so fearful.
I am also not sure how to introduce her to the whole house with her having a nervous breakdown!
