At Hepper, we advocate for adopting before shopping, but we understand there are many reasons for seeking a breeder, so we encourage it to be done the right way. We’ve put the top-recommended breeders here for you to get in touch with and ask all the right questions. We have not personally investigated each breeder ourselves. Learn more about our position and the questions you should ask before selecting a breeder here.

The Ragdoll is one of the most popular cat breeds in the United States. Not a surprise, given this cat’s sweet, gentle personality, soft, silky coat, and beautiful blue eyes.

Because the Ragdoll is so popular, you may see Ragdoll kittens offered for sale in online ads or retail pet stores. Be careful, though, because just like puppies, kittens can come from mill breeders too.

To make sure that your Ragdoll is as healthy and well-socialized as possible, always look for reputable Ragdoll breeders. We’ve found some of the best in Connecticut and the surrounding states in our list below.
