Pflegeguide

RagaMuffins need regular grooming and plenty of companionship. They are trusting cats that should be kept indoors for safety. Their docile nature makes them easy to handle but they should not be left alone for long periods.

Bewegungsbedarf

Moderate activity level. They enjoy gentle play sessions and interactive toys but are not overly demanding. Watch their weight as their large frame can mask obesity.

Fellpflege

Brush 2-3 times per week. Their plush coat is less prone to matting than many longhaired breeds but still benefits from regular attention.

Males can weigh 7-9 kg and females 5-7 kg. They are one of the larger domestic breeds and can take up to 4 years to fully mature.
Are RagaMuffins good apartment cats?
Yes, their calm, gentle nature makes them well-suited to apartment living, provided they have enough space and companionship.
Do RagaMuffins shed a lot?
Moderately. Regular brushing helps manage shedding, and their plush coat tends to resist matting better than some other longhaired breeds.
