Thumbs down in normal case will ragdoll fur knott easily???? or is it just neglect

This really disgusted me.. that she/he allowed the cat's fur to get to the point where it KNOTTED AND MATTED SO MUCH IT HAD TO BE CUT/SHAVED OUT.

AND THEY REFERR TO HIM AS 'IT' RIGHT AT THE END OF THE ADVERT
'I SPENT SO AND SO MUCH ON IT' LIKE HE IS A F$%^%$^& ITEM NOT A CAT?! NOT A LIVING BEING?? HOW DID THEY EVEN GET TO ADOPT HIM IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!
'I HAVE A BABY AND DONT WANT FUR EVERYWHERE...'
THEN BRUSH YOUR F&^t&^ CAT! YOU P^$^$%
AND WHERE THE HELL IS HIS BREEDER?! a good breeder should be atleast checking up to see how he is now and then when they get no updates, i understand breeders can be busy at timeS but to be completely unaware of something like this i just dont understand it at all unless they cut the breeder out or something by changing their details that they're supposed to give them so that they can be contacted any time!!! :/

I have been in bad sick with a really high fever for 5 days and usually i am the person miyu allows to brush her.. and her fur is nothing near being matted!!! so serious WHAT THE HELL!?!!?!

I have been on and send a message suggesting they contact either TBRCC Rehoming or the Traditionlist Ragdoll Cat Society Rehoming as though they won't "buy" the cat they would find a loving home for Obi, unfortunately the Ragdoll Rehome Group has no-one down there who could help.

surely you just have to look at a ragdoll to know it needs groomed. Poor baby hopefully he gets a much better home

Re: in normal case will ragdoll fur knott easily???? or is it just neglect

What a disgraceful advert
Sadly so many people see a pet as just another 'thing' to own without any consideration of the time and effort needed in looking after one. Ragdolls and probably Bengals have become designer accessories to some people who just want the status symbol. I think that goes for a lot of dog breeds too and then these poor animals are just discarded when the next *thing* comes along I really hope the advertiser knows what they're letting themselves in for by having a baby - I mean cat hair is nothing compared to a baby with projectile vomiting, believe me I know

Re: in normal case will ragdoll fur knott easily???? or is it just neglect

Only selling because having a baby and dont want fur everywhere. Paid £450 for it £150 ovno

a 'it' is that all its worth?

actually raggies only matt if you leave them for AGESssssssssss without brushing, so I doubt that they own a brush

why buy a cat?? they moult in the spring!! if she paid £450 that means that he should be neutered with paperwork, if no paperwork, more than likely they paid the £150 and just want their money back

just brush the cat 'ta daaaa!!' no hair!!

as judge judy says 'anything can have babies'

Re: in normal case will ragdoll fur knott easily???? or is it just neglect

"Aw, but he was a cute little ikcy wicky fluffy kitten when we got him" - well guess what Sweetie? Kittens grow up to be cats very quickly!

What did they expect to happen to a longhaired cat if they didn't assist it in grooming itself.

Stupid irresponsible owner!

I have two long haired moggies, not even half as fluffy as a ragdoll and I still brush them every day to get them glossy. I remember panicking on the forum before collecting them asking for advice as I had no previous experience of longhaired cats. Also, if the stupid owner bothered to ever brush their cat they would have realised that brushing them for 10 minutes a day also means they don't leave as much hair all over the sofa etc, as you have collected a lot of it on the brush.

The rescue centres I spoke to before getting my kittens said loads of 1/2 year old cats they get are due to owners having babies and either blaming cleaning the litter tray v pregnancy, cat not liking baby or fur problem as a reason to get rid of the cat.

Very sad but fingers crossed the new owners of "it" love him like he deserves to be loved.

Re: in normal case will ragdoll fur knott easily???? or is it just neglect

I did wonder if it is worth copying the ad and put it on the club forums to see if any breeder could possibly recognise the cat as one of theirs? But then if you go down the Preloved or Pets4Homes forums there are loads of Ragdolls of various ages for sale - so could be there all day.

I cant look anymore and I end up fuming, esp when they are selling odd eyed white raggies for £450 at 7weeks with no papers as 'rare' and shorthair tabbies?!!? as pedigree ragdolls?!

I doubt that she bought him from a breeder that would take back as the ad doesnt mention any paperwork or that his neutered
