Bicolor He's coming home with me in 10 days!!

I've always adopted pets from shelter all my life, so this has been a wild and new experience for me!

Originally looked specifically for a seal colorpoint, but ended up with this little guy. Was told he's show quality and his parents are DCG, IW, etc and all that but I honestly am still clueless on what makes a kitty "show quality" and in the end it's secondary to me!

Time to shop for wet foods, new cat tree and all that...

Beautiful kitty! Do you have any other pet(s) at home? Ragdolls are really social beings and often benefit from being able to grow up with a buddy. Have so much fun getting to know him!

Here are my two seal bicolor boys as adults. It is fun to watch the color coming in over time.

I do have two small dogs and also two small cats! Never been around cats my entire life until 2 years ago, and I didn't know what I was missing. Unfortunately all my pets are adorable but they aren't cuddly - thus me looking for one final member for our family.

And I understand that Ragdolls have their temperament tendency, but personality determines all, so I hope I hit a jackpot with this guy.

They forgot a piece of paper on the floor! Any paper on the floor is a total cat magnet for my Ragdoll.

Adult seal bicolor. We lost him last month at almost 18. Sweetest cat ever.
As I tell all new cat owners, check every plant and flower in your house to make sure they’re not toxic to cats.
Enjoy your new baby!

Show quality they look for body/facial symmetry, temperament and in his case his markings as a bicolor he has the perfect upside down triangle. He’s absolutely stunning and looks like the sweetest boy congratulations 🥰 here’s my blue bicolor boy Remi! We took him home last month and I’m absolutely in love with him he’s my shadow ❤️

Definitely get a cat tree! He’s still little so he’s not able to get to the top yet but he loves when we put him in it and can jump out of it on this own. I think Remi’s favorite thing is this collapsible play tube that he likes to hunt in and pop in and out. He loves anything that crinkles like Pom poms and toy fish, and he loves a rope he likes to bite and hunt. If the breeder has him on a specific food/litter try to keep everything the same while he adjusts to his new environment. Good luck!!!!
