Can mixed Ragdoll cats produce purebred-looking Ragdoll kittens?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Himalayan | Female | unspayed | 3 years and 5 months old

Habla is half ragdoll half mixed ( ragdoll Himalayan ), her daughter Muffin is mixed half ( Himalayan) half ( ragdoll Himalayan) ; howver Muffin has more ragdoll treats in term of looks than her mother Habla. If I have access to ragdoll male cat for breeding. Who would have more chances to produce ragdoll ( the mother Habla whom father is ragdoll, or her daughter Muffin though both her parents are mixed but she looks more of a ragdoll than her mother ) ?

What a beautiful kitty! Unfortunately it can be really difficult to predict what a kitten will look like when two breeds are mixed. Habla would have more ragdoll genes than her daughter but it’s difficult to say whether or not her offspring will look more like a ragdoll, especially since she is part mixed breed. Good luck!
