Sir Seamus, the Cat of the Day
Name: Sir Seamus
Age: Seven and a half months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Blue-Mitted Point Ragdoll
Home: Berlin, Maryland, USA
 
   This is Sir Seamus laying in his crib up on his window perch. Sir Seamus is our Blue Mitted Point Ragdoll who came from Royaldolls Ragdolls cattery in Rome, PA. He is such a sweet, loving and gentle boy and is constantly entertaining us with his sweet Ragdoll charm.

    When we first brought him home he wasn't quite three pounds. He was such a tiny little thing. Before we even made it through the door of our apartment, he was yelling at us to let him out so he could explore the place. As soon as we let him out of his carrier, he told us who was the boss of the place; he was into every little corner, cubbyhole, you name it. By the time he was finished exploring the apartment, he was sitting on top of his three-foot high scratching post we had bought for him. He looked like he was sitting on top of the world the way he was perched up there.

    Every morning he patiently waits for us to open our eyes before he attacks us to get up out of bed so he can sit between the inner/outer shower curtains while we take our showers; he loves running water. It seems every time we walk by the bathroom or turn the bathroom sink/bathtub/shower water on he is right next to you within seconds wanting a sip of water. He also enjoys taking short car rides around town and sits in the back window and watches everything. When we come home he flops himself down in front of our feet all sprawled out on his back wanting a tummy rub. He loves to be held and rocked like a baby and looks up at you with his big blue eyes. He turns into one big teddy bear when we're holding him. He even has a basket he sleeps in that we call it his crib.

    Whenever we take him to our friends and families homes, he likes to take over and dominate. We refer to him as a Cabbog since he has fur like a rabbit, acts like a dog and looks like a cat. He's now 7.5 months old and weighing in at 8.5 pounds. The ragdoll breed can get up to 15-20 pounds for full-grown altered males. His mother is ten pounds and his father is fourteen pounds. It will be interesting to see how big he gets when full grown.
