Answers about Ragdoll kittens, reservations, veterinary care, pickup, and bringing your kitten home.
Gulf Coast Ragdolls is based in St. Petersburg, Florida and serves families throughout Tampa Bay and across Florida. Kitten pickup is in St. Petersburg, and delivery may be available depending on location.
Availability changes as kittens are reserved. Our Available Kittens page is kept current with available and reservable kittens, photos, birth dates, pricing and reservation status.
Every kitten goes home with their first FVRCP vaccination, a wellness exam, a Florida health certificate, deworming, a fecal test, a feline leukemia (FeLV) test, and complete vet records to bring to your veterinarian.
Yes. Every kitten comes with a one-year health guarantee. Ask us for the current guarantee terms before reserving so you know exactly what is covered.
Adoption fees currently range from $1,500 to $2,500 depending on the individual kitten. A $500 reservation deposit is applied toward the adoption fee. Exact pricing is listed on our Available Kittens page.
After availability is confirmed, a $500 non-refundable reservation deposit confirms your reservation and is applied toward the adoption fee. Do not send a deposit until Gulf Coast Ragdolls has confirmed the kitten's gender, pattern, and availability with you.
No. Submitting a Kitten Application does not hold or reserve a kitten. We confirm current availability first, and the reservation is confirmed after the applicable $500 deposit is received.
For kittens within the same gender and color or pattern group, pick order follows the order reservation deposits are received. For example, the first family to place an accepted deposit for a Blue Bicolor girl receives first pick of the available Blue Bicolor girls at their scheduled pickup time. Pick position cannot be guaranteed if the family cannot attend its allotted pickup time.
Go-home timing varies by litter. Current ready dates are listed on our Available Kittens page and are based on each kitten completing their pre-pickup veterinary care and being ready for the transition home.
Kittens are not spayed or neutered before going home. Because Ragdolls are a slow-maturing breed, we generally recommend discussing spay or neuter around 5–6 months with your veterinarian based on your kitten's development.
Yes. Florida delivery may be available for an additional cost depending on location and scheduling. Approximate pricing is $300 within about a 2-hour drive and $500 within about a 4-hour drive, such as St. Petersburg to Miami. Pickup is in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Most commonly blue bicolor, blue lynx bicolor, and flame point Ragdolls. This varies by litter.
Yes. Our kittens are raised in a home environment with regular handling, attention, and exposure to everyday household life.
No. Registration status varies by kitten. When a kitten is TICA registered, that is clearly noted on the kitten's profile and the stated registration papers are included. All current registration details are listed individually on our Available Kittens page.
Ragdoll kittens grow quickly and do well with consistent, kitten-appropriate nutrition. We recommend keeping your kitten on the food they are already eating at first and making any changes gradually. Our Ragdoll Kitten Feeding Guide covers meal frequency, portions, and transitioning foods.
We recommend establishing care with your veterinarian within 30 days of pickup. Bring the veterinary paperwork we provide so your vet can continue the FVRCP vaccine series, plan the rabies vaccine at the appropriate age, and discuss spay or neuter timing.
Ragdoll kitten availability changes throughout the year as litters are born and kittens are reserved. Check our Available Kittens page for current availability, or submit a Kitten Application for a future litter.
