Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Cotton. 7-10 month old Seal Lynx Ragdoll
Cotton came to us along with three other adorable juvenile kitties; maybe we should call them juvenile delinquent kitties because they are certainly having a rowdy time in their foster home. This gang of young cats has so much fun playing that their foster mom can hear them thundering around upstairs. When that happens their foster mother refers to them, not as cats, but as the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Seriously, though, its is a wonderful thing to see. When they first arrived in foster care, they were so scared they were hissing at everything, even themselves! They were just upset and afraid after being dumped in a shelter and then taken on a long car drive to a strange house. In short order, however, they came out of their shells and are now extraordinarily loving and attracted to humans.
Cotton was a little shy at first, but fairly quick to realize he had a good thing going in his foster home. He is all about the five-star service he's receiving: room service, lap time with special kitty massage upgrades, pillows for sleeping with his foster mom, tummy rubs. The list goes on! He's sold. Cotton gives as good as he gets, though. He is a kind and loving kitty who will bring years of joy and therapy to his human companions.
For such a big cat, Cotton has a tiny squeak of a voice, quite charming on such a big boy. He is nearly identical to his brother Wooley Bear, just a tiny bit smaller, and his coat has a different texture with subtly different markings. Cotton's fur is like the softest 1,000 theadcount sheets you've ever felt.
Like his brother, Cotton is probably going to be a big boy. If he grows into those feet, he is going to be a sizable boy. There is no guarantee as to how large he will be; however, he is already the size of a normal adult cat, and this breed continues to grow and mature up to age three.
Although he's still shy of strange noises and people he doesn't know, once he gets to know you, Cotton can be picked up, snuggled and turned over for tummy rubs and kisses. His foster mom likes to snuggle him like a baby. He is getting used to the big dog in the house. Like his siblings, he tends to hiss at strange cats, but it is expected that with proper introduction he will get along with other resident cats. He might be OK with older children once he gets used to the activity level of the house.
Cotton and Silky are the closest of the group and tend to sleep together, either on their foster mom or under her nightstand.
