Furrballz Ragdolls | Breeding for Health, Temperament and Size

About Us...

We are Terri-Ann, Peter and our children. A small family-run breeding cattery, close to the shadows of the Dandenong Ranges. We have 3 gorgeous children between us that are a terrific help with the cats, both in the day-to-day feeding of them and in the kitten raising.
We started breeding and showing cats in 1998 and are proudly registered and involved with the Cat Authority of Victoria (CAV) who are affiliates of the Australian Cat Federation (ACF). I would highly recommend them if you are looking to show your cat, pedigreed or not!
We have bred other breeds previously. British Shorthairs, concentrating on the pointed variety and specialising in the lilac and chocolate colours, and Burmese. Unfortunately for these breeds, the Ragdoll has stayed firmly in our hearts and is the chosen breed we are concentrating on at the moment.
We have other animals in our four-footed side of the family. A young retired Greyhound, Bobby. He is also Blue/White and is adjusting well to not chasing the furry things running around under his nose!! Soon after Chippy's death (our lovely Blue-White Border Collie, Chippy that was campained in the show ring, obedience ring as well as a trained Pets for Therapy dog. He was our guard dog, family companion and main kitten socialisation tool, and is missed greatly) we also added a young Black/White Greyhound puppy that was in need of a home. Angel came to us at the young age of 6wks old, and we are hoping to campain her in the obedience ring when she is older.

We have also bred Arab/Appaloosa Mare, Milly and her Chesnut 1/2 brother Banner. Due to financial changes in our household, we have had to find a new home for these 2 gorgeous horses. I am happy they are going to a wonderful home together where we can go and visit occasionally.
All of our animals are treated as part of the family...tho the horses weren't allowed on the couch! We believe we have the best of all worlds with our family and our animals. We trust you will enjoy looking thru our website and we encourage you to email or phone us with any questions or comments.

Our Breeding Cats

We are very proud of the breeding cats we have and we take great care of them. We have found our cats from some wonderful breeders that have been there for us and have entrusted us with some of their gorgeous babies that they have lovingly raised and cared for.
The following cats are those that are our active Breeding Cats.

This is our gorgeous Stud, the centre of our Breeding Programme. Thanks To Marj Dunmal of Purrdolls Ragdolls in Queensland, we have been entrusted with our next breeding Stud boy. Purrdolls Mr Connor (DOB - 10/02/2004) has already started proving himself on the show bench for us and is consistantly getting Top 5 in Group One Kittens, and Top 5 in Best of Breed!!

Purrdolls Mr Conner is a seal mitt with incredible size and purrsonality!! As you can see from the picture (at 8mths old!!) he is HUGE and has a HUGE amount of growing left in him, as Ragdolls continue to grow and develop till they are around 4 years of age.

Our Second Stud is also the newest addition. 'Bluey' as we call him, is really registered as Cheznut Pearl Blueberry, and was kindly given to us by Pearl of Cheznut Hill Ragdolls...she also runs a MEAN bed and breakfast near Lakes Entrance!! If you are interested in checking our Pearl's bed and breakfast - http://www.chestnuthill.com.au/home.htm
We are excited about his addition to our cattery and look forward to his offspring.

This gogeous creature is called Missy. She is our first Ragdoll that is from the 'O' gene (or Red series) as she is a stunning Blue Cream Mitt. Torties are my personal favorite and I am very excited over what can be bred from her. Thanks to her breeder Narelle at Gembelle Ragdolls for breeding this stunning girl!

Furrballz Princess Fiona, or Princess as we call her, is a Blue Point and a daughter of Pip and a Grandaughter of Stumpy. She has fantastic size and is also a fantastic Mum. Another very smoochy girl that loves nothing better than to lie on our laps, or on our beds with us.

We are pleased and excited to announce the successful arrival of a gorgeous Blue Bi-Colour girl from New Zealand. 'Kare' shows fantastic promise with her fantastic temperament, size and boning. She was born on Xmas Eve '04, and is prooving herself as a worthy addition to our cattery already!!
Special Thanks to Sharon from Sharntalia Ragdolls (NZ) (Sharon's website can be found here - http://www1.freewebs.com/sharntaliaragdolls/ ) for breedingsuch a special girl, and entrusting her to us...we also know Sharon will take care of the 2 babies we have sent her.

This is one of our home grown girls, Furrballz Angel in Seal, or Angel as we call her around home. She is pictured here with her first litter born early '07, that was to our Connor. Angel's Mum is also Pip, and her Grandmother is also Stumpy, both of these girls are now retired and living the life of luxury! Angel is a very smoochy and laid back girl that is showing lots of promise in size!

Another 'home grown' girl. This gorgeous Seal Point young girl is due to have her first litter in the second half of November '07 to Connor. Dee Dee is Registered as Furrballz Dark Angel and her Mum is our gorgeous Blue Bi-colour import, Kare. Dee Dee has a funny little quirk where she jumps up into your hand when you are patting her! She is maturing into a lovely addition for us here at Furrballz Ragdolls.

This last stunning girl in our cattery is Furrballz Majik Bella, who was from the last litter Stumpy had before being desexed. Bella is a lovely Blue/cream tortie Point, and her Dad is Dandy Ragdolls boy, Murphy, who is a HUGE Red Point. Thanks to Sandy from Dandy Ragdolls for the use of her boy.
