Emma, the Cat of the Day
Name: Emma
Age: Four months old
Gender: Female
Kind: Blue Mitted Ragdoll
Home: Ontario, Canada
 
   This is a picture of "The Devine Miss Em" of Ayla's Ragdolls in Ontario Canada. She is a gorgeous Blue Mitted Ragdoll. I have been breeding Ragdolls for over two years now and was desperately hoping for a blue mitted girl. Well I got one and while working one night my husband promised it to his sister over the phone. I reluctantly gave it up and hoped that perhaps I would get another some day. When the mother of the first gave birth again I eagerly checked the babies. Five in the litter, one girl. Ragdolls are born all cream colored and don't get their points for a number of weeks so its always a surprise. About 3 weeks of age I saw she was a blue point and by 8 weeks it was apparent she also had perfect mitts. The first one my husband gave to his sister was mitted but they were mismatched mitts. This little girl was perfect. I was so happy, the old saying give and you get back ten fold is so true. She seems to know she is my little princess as you can tell by the look on her face. In a household of 6 cats she is definitely going to be a leader as already she has the others eating out of her paw. They all seem to know she needs help to keep that coat clean and each takes turns grooming her. She doesn't like to get her face dirty so takes the hard cat food out of the dish with her paw, one piece at a time and eats it. The Divine Miss Em can melt the hardest heart and even turned a few of my cat "tolerating" friends into cat lovers like me.
