The UK RagaMuffin Group The United Kingdom RagaMuffin Group
In May of 2008, Allen and I became part of a group of experienced breeders who decided to import the RagaMuffin Cat into the UK. A breeder in Scotland was already in the process of bringing the breed in and we felt that if the breed were to be successful and protected, they would need to be recognised by the GCCF.
Most of our group had already served together on a Ragdoll breed club and knew just how hard it could be to achieve but, with a lot of hard work and determination, plus having been involved with breed applications before felt we were up to the challenge.
Our hard work has paid off and the RagaMuffin name, complete with it's capital 'M' had been approved by the Executive Committee and as from June 2009 our Muffins were able to be registered with the GCCF.
Here are the first of the cats that the Group have imported into the UK and we will be importing more in the future to ensure that the gene pool is diverse. All the cats have been DNA tested negative for the known Ragdoll HCM gene & PKD as will all further cats that are imported in accordance with the RagaMuffin Registeration Policy which you will find on the United Kingdom RagaMuffin Cat Society 's web site.
As we are all working together, this enables us not to have too many cats in any one household but still be able to produce litters with diverse pedigrees along with many colours and patterns.
