Ragdoll cats are affectionate, intelligent, and docile indoor companions that often go limp when held, but they require significant attention, grooming due to their long fur, and are prone to certain health issues like HCM and obesity. Their gentle nature, while perfect for families with children, also makes them vulnerable outdoors and susceptible to separation anxiety if left alone for long periods. 
> Gentle and Affectionate Nature:
Known for their calm, docile, and affectionate personalities, they are excellent companions and are often good with children and other pets. 
> Intelligent and Trainable:
Ragdolls are intelligent and receptive to training, enjoying interactive play sessions and learning new tricks. 
> “Go Limp” When Held:
Their signature characteristic is going limp or floppy when picked up, a sign of their trust and comfort with humans. 
> Good Indoor Cats:
They are content to live indoors, as they are not particularly suited for outdoor life due to their lack of street smarts and self-defense skills. 
> Dog-like Qualities:
Some Ragdolls exhibit dog-like behaviors, such as following their owners around, greeting them at the door, and even playing fetch.
