Ragdoll Cats Patterns

Ragdoll cats patterns

Ragdoll cats are known for their striking and distinct coat patterns. The primary patterns for Ragdoll cats include:

1: Colourpoint: This pattern features a lighter body colour with darker “points” on the ears, face, paws, and tail. These points are well-defined and contrast with the lighter body colour.

2: Mitted: Similar to the colourpoint pattern, but with the addition of white mittens on the paws and a white chin. This pattern also often includes a white stripe humming down the belly.

3: Bicolour: This pattern features more white than the mitted pattern. The face typically has an inverted “v” of white, with white also present on the chest, belly, and legs. The ears and tail retain the darker colour of the points.

4: Lynx: This pattern can overlay any of the other patterns and adds a tabby ( striped) appearance to the points. It includes distinct striping and can occur in colourpoint , mitted, or bicolour patterns.

5: Tortie: Short for tortoiseshell, this pattern includes patches of different colours( usually red and cream) mixed in with the base colours. It can also occur in combination with a unique and varied appearance.

These patterns, combined with the range of colours( such as seal, blue, chocolate, lilac, and more), give Ragdoll cats their distinctive and beautiful appearance.
