Pet quality kittens: Loving babies with slight conformational or pattern flaws. $700 for males, $750 for females.
Show quality kittens: These are available first to those who wish to show. $850-$950. These babies have the right markings, good conformation, temperament, and age/gender-appropriate size. It may take up to 4 months to determine if an eye-catching kitten is a show prospect. Since these are neutered or spayed, they can be shown in the kitten and premiership/alter classes.
Breeder/show quality kittens: These kittens are available only to small, established catteries. These kittens are usually shown before sale and are individually priced. Only a few breeder/show kittens are available each year, so these are available only to those on my waiting list. Please be patient; a kitten has to be truly exceptional to be considered breeder/show. These kittens come from HCM DNA negative parents. HCM DNA test certificates on sire and dam available upon request. $1300/up.
Adults (retired breeding cats) range in price from $200-400. Please consider a young adult or getting a second kitten if you lead a busy lifestyle. Kittens need more attention from you to develop into model citizens. They also have a higher energy level until they reach 6-8 months of age.
Our kittens are sold to approved homes only.

Please consider that you will be adding a permanent family member when you get a Ragdoll. Seriously consider your lifestyle, health, home/job stability, and allergies among members of the household.
SHIPPING within the US is available at buyer's expense, weather permitting. Shipping via the following carriers out of Albuquerque International Airport is relatively simple: Continental, United, American, or Delta. I currently ship kittens Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, or on weekends. I am an experienced shipper and will gladly give you a quote on shipping. Generally speaking, for Continental, add $200 to the kitten price to cover shipping and related costs. For all other airlines, add $260.
Sorry, but all kitten buyers must reside in the United States or Canada.
RESERVING A KITTEN: I have a small in-home cattery; I average 3 litters per year so I don't have kittens at all times. It is easy to get on my waiting list. First, I screen you as a potential buyer. Then I will send you a pet buyer's contract ( please view the sample) to sign and return with a $100 deposit. This deposit is refundable until a commitment has been made to purchase a specific kitten, at which time an additional non-refundable $100 is required. Most kittens are reserved in advance. I accept 3 advance reservations per litter. Those on my waiting list get up-to-the-minute updates on the litter's progress and photos every 2 weeks as the babies grow. By the time your kitten goes home we will have gotten to know each other well :)
PAYMENTS: A $200 non-refundable deposit will reserve your kitten for you. Final balances must be paid with a cashier's check, money order, PayPal, or cash. Please use Delivery Confirmation/Fedex/UPS if mailing payments. Thanks for your understanding.
(Please add 3.3% to cover PayPal fees. )
CATTERY VISITS: The best way to learn about the ragdoll breed is via the Internet or by visiting a local cat show and chatting with exhibitors. Due to time constraints I cannot welcome all interested parties to my home. I allow each buyer up to 2 cattery visits of up to an hour apiece. The first is to select a kitten from a litter. This is scheduled after I have received a deposit and a signed copy of the contract agreeing to the conditions of sale. If a buyer decides on the day of the visit that a kitten from the current litter isn't suitable, the initial $100 deposit check will be returned. The second visit is to pick up the kitten. New parents are reminded to bring a cat carrier when picking up.
