Every Royal Court Needs a Poet. This Ragdoll Has the Soulful Eyes for It.

Every royal court needs a poet, and this one has the soulful eyes for it. The cream point Ragdoll sits in a dark velvet doublet worked with swirling gold embroidery, a wide lace ruff blooming around a full, fluffy neck. Pale blue eyes gaze dreamily into the distance, and pinkish nose and softly shaded ears complete a gentle, contemplative face. One white paw, framed by a lace cuff, holds a worn leather-bound book close to the chest, its cover tooled with faded gold. A patterned brocade cloak drapes over one shoulder.

Ragdolls are often described as one of the most laid-back cat breeds. They're known for being affectionate and people-focused, and many enjoy being held and carried, sometimes going relaxed and floppy in their owners' arms. Cream point is one of the lighter colorpoint variations, with pale cream points on the ears, face, paws, and tail. Ragdolls are slow to mature and are a large breed, so a sturdy cat tree and comfortable resting spots are worth investing in. Their semi-long, silky coat needs regular brushing to prevent tangles and reduce shedding. Because they're so trusting and gentle, Ragdolls are usually best kept as indoor cats.

Whatever verses fill that book, they're surely about sunbeams, soft cushions, and the quiet joy of a long afternoon nap. A poet this gentle could make even a bowl of breakfast sound like an epic.
