Ragdoll Cat Patterns
COLORPOINT PATTERN: The ears, mask, feet and tail to be darker, with well-defined color. Nose leather and paw pads are fully pigmented and match the point color. There is a definite contrast between body and points, chest, bib and chin areas may be somewhat lighter in color.
MITTED PATTERN: The legs (except for feet), ears, mask, and tail are well-defined with the point color. The front feet have white mittens on both feet. The back legs what white boots which go up to and around the hocks entirely, extending no higher than mid-thigh. May have a white blaze on nose or between eyes. Chin must be white and extend into white belly stripe. The nose leather is fully pigmented and matches the point color. The paw pads are pink but may show minor spotting of color corresponding to point color. There is a definite contrast between body and points. There should be a white belly stripe, varying in width from the bib, between the forelegs down the midline of the underside of the cat. Soft shadings of color are allowed on body.
BI-COLOR PATTERN: The Bicolor also has dark points, but the mask has an inverted "V" extending between the eyes to the muzzle. Symmetry preferred. The nose leather on a Ragdoll Cat is pink. The body color is white with a "saddle" on the back, which has a white area in the middle. The chin, chest and underside of the Ragdoll is white. The upper body may show white spotting. The legs and feet are preferably white. May have minor dark spots. The paw pads are pink, but a mixture of colors on paw pads acceptable. When determining color, point color of ears is the deciding factor.
Mid-high white bicolor has a broader "V" on the mask. Sometimes a breakthrough spotting on the legs. The amount of white varies. Mid-high wites can be shown too if they have a good "V" and no white in tail and ears.
High white bicolor/van has usually no "saddle" on the back. The "V" on the mask extends almost up to the ears. This pattern can sometimes be shown as a "van" if the cat is marked like a Turkish Van cat.
High mitted is a mitted with two mitted genes instead of one. There is often a little breakthrough spotting on the limbs, but otherwise high mitted looks like a bicolor. If the pattern fits the bicolor standard, a high mitted can be shown as a bicolor. Most breeders in the U.S. work with high mitted bicolors bred from two mitted Ragdolls.
