Looking for RagCoon Kittens? Here’s What We’re Planning

Many of you found us when we announced our very first RagCoon litter — a unique cross between our Maine Coon stud, Thor, and our Ragdoll queen, Avie. That post quickly became one of our most popular, and it’s clear that a lot of families are curious about the mix of these two beloved breeds.

Right now, however, we don’t have any RagCoon litters planned. We may decide to breed this cross again in the future, but for now, our focus remains on our Maine Coon program.

For families who are hoping for a purebred Ragdoll kitten instead of waiting on a RagCoon, I’m excited to recommend our friends at Equinox Cats.

Why We Recommend Equinox Cats

I know the breeder personally, and she runs a small, in-home cattery much like ours. Her breeding cats come from championship lines, are genetically clear, and fully health tested. More importantly, she raises her kittens right in her home, surrounded by her kids, family, and friends, so they grow up beautifully socialized and ready for life with their forever families.

Her kittens are truly exceptional—not only in quality but also in the rare, luxurious mink coats she specializes in. Mink Ragdolls are different from the traditional Ragdolls many people know. Instead of being born white and slowly developing color at their points, mink kittens are born with rich, velvety coats and deeper body color from day one. Their fur is silkier and plusher, almost like velvet, and their eye colors can range from the traditional blue to stunning shades of aqua, green, or even amber.

These beautiful cats are officially recognized by the International Cat Association (TICA) under the Cherubim breed, which includes mink, sepia, and solid Ragdolls. This allows traditional blue-eyed, pointed Ragdolls to keep their own show category, while also celebrating the unique colors and patterns that mink and sepia cats bring. The temperament, though, is exactly the same—gentle, loving, and family-oriented.

At Equinox Cats, you’ll find an amazing variety of colors and patterns, all TICA registered. Kittens may come in shades like Seal, Blue, Chocolate, Lilac, Red, or Cream, with patterns such as Colorpoint, Mitted, Bicolor, or Solid. Some even have overlays like Lynx striping, Tortie patchwork, or the charming Blaze marking on their face. Every family will know exactly what color and pattern their kitten is as they grow.

Maine Coon vs. Ragdoll: Personalities and Size

As a breeder who has worked with Maine Coons for years, I understand how distinct these two breeds are—and why one might be the perfect fit for one family while the other suits someone else.

• Maine Coon Personality: Known as the “gentle giants” of the cat world, Maine Coons are playful, intelligent, and people-oriented without being overly needy. They’re often compared to dogs for their loyalty and tendency to follow their humans from room to room. Many enjoy fetch, water play, and being part of all household activities.

• Ragdoll Personality: True to their name, Ragdolls are famously relaxed and easygoing. They love to be held and will often flop into your arms or across your lap. They’re affectionate, gentle, and thrive on companionship, making them wonderful cuddle companions and excellent family cats.

• Size Differences: Maine Coons are typically larger, with males often reaching 18–25 pounds or more once fully grown, and females averaging 12–18 pounds. Ragdolls are still a large breed but generally a bit smaller, with males averaging 15–20 pounds and females around 10–15 pounds. Both breeds take several years to fully mature, but Maine Coons are often considered the largest domestic breed overall.

Final Thoughts

For now, our cattery doesn’t have RagCoon kittens available, but we’ll always keep our community updated if we decide to welcome another mixed litter in the future. In the meantime, if your heart is set on a purebred Ragdoll, I wholeheartedly encourage you to check out Equinox Cats. Their kittens are raised with the same love, care, and integrity we put into our Maine Coon program, and I have no doubt you’ll fall in love with them.
