What makes Equinox Cats different from other catteries?

At Equinox Cats, we are a small, family-run cattery located in Arizona, specializing in breeding beautiful, loving cherubim Ragdolls. Our focus is on the health, pedigree, and temperament of our kittens, ensuring they grow up in a nurturing home environment. Because we raise our Ragdolls with love and care, they make wonderful companions for families.

What does Equinox Cats focus on when breeding Ragdolls?

Our priority is breeding healthy, well-tempered Ragdolls with strong pedigrees. We carefully select our breeding pairs for their genetic health and temperament, ensuring that each kitten is not only beautiful but also has a gentle, affectionate nature.

What is HCM, and why is it important to test for it?

HCM (Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy) is a common heart condition in cats that causes the walls of the heart to thicken, making it harder for the heart to function properly. It’s important to test for HCM because it can be inherited. At Equinox Cats, we ensure all our breeding cats are tested for HCM to reduce the risk of passing this condition on to future generations, prioritizing the long-term health of our kittens.

What can I expect from the temperament of a Ragdoll kitten from Equinox Cats?

Ragdolls are known for their friendly, affectionate, and calm demeanor, and our kittens are no exception! Raised in a loving home, they are well-socialized and make perfect family pets. They are known for being gentle and often described as "puppy-like" due to their tendency to follow their owners around and enjoy being held.

How do you ensure the health of your Ragdoll kittens?

In addition to HCM testing, we regularly screen for other common health conditions and work closely with veterinarians to maintain high health standards. We provide vaccinations, deworming, and thorough health checks for all our kittens before they go to their forever homes..

Do your Ragdolls come from strong pedigrees?

Yes! All of our Ragdolls come from champion bloodlines and are bred with a focus on preserving the breed's standards. We take pride in providing pedigreed kittens with a documented lineage that emphasizes health and breed quality.
