ABOUT US

Welcome to NOVA MAO MAO's ragdoll cattery.

Our ragdoll business has, and always will be family-owned and operated. We are stationed in the DC metro area. 

Our cats get plenty of attention from our two children, and our dog is friendly as well. The kittens are socialized from the beginning.

Recently we have set up another location for our cattery, where we can separate kittens from adults to produce healthier kittens.

I am a US graduate and have the qualifications to be a scientist or engineer. I am interested in feline nutrition and behavior. It is my interest to keep in contact with our customers for years after they left our home. I like to gain data on size and personality. Therefore, any purchase from us will not be a one time deal. You are more than welcome to contact us and let us know how your cat develops.

Often times I ask myself that there are so many breeders… why should people get cats from us?

  1. We have over 10 years history. We built our own bloodline. We have generations of cats proving healthy and staying with us.
  2. We live with our cats. We stay with them in our bedroom until they are 7 weeks old. We practice proving theory which is the first 7 weeks’ people interaction with them. That is very important in the process how they know the world.
  3. We get lapcats. We tell you rightway. We can claim that our cat’s super friendly personality is guaranteed.
  4.  We work with customers on different household situation. We do a match.

So far I have been breeding over 10 years. People mostly asks about “lapcat”.

Well, here is my experience. Cats’ personality can be differentiated by introverted and outgoing. Some cats are very outgoing. They can be picked up constantly and never be afraid of strangers. However, it doesn’t mean he/she is a lapcat. But this kind of cats are good for a family of big size. They will thrive well in that situation. There are also introverted cats. They are a little shine from strangers. But they will be a good lapcat when they are familiar with surroundings. They will workout perfect well with a small household. 

It is reasonable for people to desire a cat as a companion with physical touch. That is also why people spends money on this purebred thing. 

I welcome customers’ telling me about their desire and household situation. I can work out a match for your guys. I guarantee that my cats are good and they will live well in your household.

People often asked me how I price my kittens:

  1. Depends on breeder: if this kitten contains some coloring gene and is marketable in both breeder and pet markets;
  2. Depends on coloring: if this kitten's coloring is more market friendly;
  3. Depends on coat coloring, disposition, size and physical figuring - show grade?
  4. Depends on personality - how big the market it fits in.

Often times, people assume that all ragdoll cats should be friendly. In our cattery, yes. But we have struggled ten years for it. It is our goal to get 100% people friendly cat. It is our goal to say "our cats' personality is guaranteed". We match up people And cat.

However, there is great price variety in market nowadays. Please check http://ragdollscam.com/
