Saff is a DSH who has a screechy nonstop meow and who goes limp when held. However the two breeds that's common in (siamese and ragdolls) look nothing like her and are pointed, where she's a spotted tabby. She could have 20 or more different breeds in her on top of those two stand-out traits, or she could be a fluke and not have any Siamese or Ragdoll in her.
and mixes dont alleays have the traits ellies part ragdoll and she dosnt flop i wish she did
anyone know what a persian should weight? on avrage i think ellas under
Yup, genetics do silly things. Ragdolls (and Ragamuffins later) were only bred because someone found a fluffy kitten that was incredibly docile and went limp "like a ragdoll" when held. As a result, Ragdolls/amuffins are a fluke and it's a naturally occuring gene, so they show up even in cats that have no ragdoll/amuffin in them.
Since Ella is part ragdoll and part persian she might not be the correct weight for either. Persians iirc get to about 15, Ragdolls can reach 20.

i came back from my california trip. i left Lily with a very good friend of mine and when i came back to pick her up, i was amazed how she grew in just 2 weeks ._.
i'll upload a new picture also, but i was wondering. she is 16 weeks now (3 months), is it alright for her to be eating adult canned cat food? i prefer sticking with the kitten formula, but i was just wondering.
