This
is Sara and Seng-ge. They are brother and sister, separated at
birth, but found their way back together. My husband and I bought
Seng-ge (Tibetan for Snow Lion, which is exactly what he looked like
as a baby) shortly after we got married as our first pet together. A
friend of mine had started breeding Ragdolls, and this was his first
litter. We fell completely in love with Seng-ge and he became our
little baby. At the time, Sara was kept to be a breeder in the future.
As Seng-ge grew, he became quite a character, harassing our two older
cats by biting their butts when they weren't looking (this is really
hilarious to see). His favorite game is fetch, and he returns it and
drops it for you every time! He is such a lover and wants to kiss all
the time. He is the softest cat I have ever had, and feels more like
an angora rabbit than a cat.
About a year and half after getting Seng-ge, we found out that Sara,
who didn't grow big enough to be a breeder, had been "petted
out" to a girl who couldn't get a kitten. Our friends told her
that no matter what happened, if it didn't work out, they would give
her a refund and they would take Sara back, as she was their favorite.
Well two months after she was petted out, the girl returned her saying
she "wasn't affectionate enough". Very strange. So we
decided to take Sara. Upon getting her it was like our own little
"Nature vs. Nurture" experiment. Sara and Seng-ge acted the
exact same way in some respects, such as walking the exact same way,
the way they would plop on the floor, the same meow, they played the
same way. It really made us see that genetics do take a part in
animals personalities. But because Sara was raised with her cat momma,
so never bonded with humans the same way totally co-dependent Seng-ge
did, she was a bit shy when it came to lovin' on her people. But with
much patience and one-on-one time, Sara has come around to being my
little girl. She now will wake me up with licks and kisses as soon as
the alarm sounds.
Sara and Seng-ge are really unique cats, and have gotten me totally
hooked on the Ragdoll breed. They are so affectionate, beautiful, and
love to be around their humans. I highly recommend this breed to
anyone who wants a loyal, lovable cat, who is also so beautiful and
soft, you'll just want to keep getting more and more.
