New info effective 2025 - ragdoll breed Group CATEGORIES
Ragdoll & Cherubim
This year 530 Ragdoll breeders came together to vote on a change to the Ragdoll Breed Group in regards to registration and showing with TICA. This is the association that I am a voting member of and my cats & kittens are registered with. This has been a long time coming and is a positive change in that now Mink, Sepia and Solids will be allowed to obtain Championship status at TICA cat shows. They are all still in the Ragdoll Breed Group, but they will have their own categories; Ragdolls (pointed, blue eyed) and Cherubim (Mink, Sepia & Solids with eyes of aqua, green or gold).
The Cherubim name was created by Ann Baker, the original creator of the Ragdoll breed. Ragdolls in either category are purebred Ragdolls. Traditional colored Ragdolls can have both traditional and mink babies in the same litter. Mink or Sepia can have traditional colored kittens. Mink, sepia and solid color variations and Cherubim name trace back to Ann Baker and are deep seated in the history of the breed. I believe this is a step forward in recognition for Ragdolls of the beautiful color variants of mink, sepia and solid colors.
So you may ask “I got a mink kitten from you, will his/her registration change?”, the answer to this is no. Up until May of 2025, all Ragdolls registered will continue to be registered in the same category and will receive a registration number starting in SBT. After May 2025 any registered traditional colored, pointed, blue eyed kittens will receive a registration number starting in SBT, and any Mink, Sepia or Solid colored kittens will be registered as Cherubim and receive a registration number starting with SBV (V standing for variant). Even if they were born in the same litter.
So all this being said, Ragdoll and Cherubim possess the exact same breed standards and are the same breed group. They all share the same body type, wonderfully plush coats and the amazing floppy, gentle, smart and cuddly personalities we all know and love them for. The only difference in Ragdoll & Cherubim categories is variation in coat & eye color.
Still have questions? As always, please feel free to reach out. :)
