Welcome to Maple Leaf Ragdolls, a small home-based cattery located in Norman, Oklahoma! We are dedicated to raising healthy, outgoing ragdolls who are loved and well socialized with adults, children, and other pets. We do NOT cage any animals in our home; they are members of our family and loved by all! Our home is immaculately clean and inspected each year. This loving, clean environment is best for raising such gorgeous ragdolls!
Maple Leaf Ragdolls breeds to TICA and CFA ragdoll standards!
We are happy to work with new ragdoll families from the Central U.S. where we are located (including Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, Colorado,and others), as well as the entire U.S. and worldwide. We are happy to ship as well, pending good weather. Should you have special delivery issues, please be sure to ask us.
We are proud of our Canadian heritage; however, we have lived in the U.S. most of our lives. Norman, Oklahoma has been our home for the past 16 years - the "Heartland of America". Norman is approximately 20 minutes from Will Rogers International Airport in Oklahoma City.
I have been blessed with three children (ages 25, 24, and 18) who adore our ragdolls and help with the raising, socialization, and showing of our cats. All the ragdolls sleep with us and have free roam of our house. Our babies are loved and nurtured from the day they arrive. Most prefer a human's bed to sleep on at night!
I earned my Bachelor's and Master's degrees (University of Northern Colorado and University of Oklahoma respecfully). My hobbies include genealogy, traveling, and gardening. We occasionally travel to show our cats in TICA and CFA on the weekends!
Please see our Kings and Queens pages to view our stunning ragdoll breeders! I have included personal information about each cat to let you know about their personalities. It may take a moment to load; please be patient as the photos are worth waiting for.
*****ALL BREEDERS HAVE BEEN HCM SCANNED NEGATIVE BY A BOARD CERTIFIED CARDIOLOGIST AND/OR DNA TESTED BY UCDAVIS. THEY ARE ALSO FREE OF FELV AND FIP. All breeders have had their blood type confirmed by my vet as "Type A". For more information on HCM (Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy) and other severe illnesses which are prone to ALL purebreed cats, please check my "Favorite Links" web page*****
Be sure and view our new Professional Photospage to see examples of our stunning Maple Leaf Ragdoll babies! The photos were not retouched!!!
