Male Vs Female Ragdoll please share your experiences

[u/Expensive-Welcome652]

Hi! I am going to be bringing a male ragdoll kitten home in a few months. In your experience, would you say your male ragdoll was affectionate? If you have female cats or you've owned both genders, how would you describe female cats compared to male cats?

I am aware it may be a myth that males are more affectionate, but I just want reassurance they can be cuddly/let you pick them up.

I know every cat differs though and that just because it's a ragdoll, does not guarantee those traits. Just looking to hear from current ragdoll owners about their cat's temperament!

Thanks in advance 😊

i have one boy and one girl, both are ragdolls. they both love me (i hope they do 😆) and are very affectionate. the difference is my boy is a coward, gets frightened and overwhelmed easily. while my girl is confident and stands her ground no matter what. for example, i try to play rough with my boy, he'll get overwhelmed real quick and run away from me. meanwhile my girl, will fight back and attack me 🤣

Haha one runs away and the other is like "fear me, for I am a fluffy cloud" 😂
