...go completely limp?
Ferris seems to be quite loose-limbed. He doesn't lay down, he literally collapses where he stands, especially when I pet him. Ginger, on the other hand, lays down deliberately, placing her limbs just so. Ferris just goes limp, like he has rubber legs.
If I pick him up and put him on my lap, he seems to lose his legs right away, even if he jumps off a moment later. I still can't hold him in my arms for more than a few seconds, but I'm starting to think that if he was comfortable with being held, he'd go all limp then, too.
I'm starting to wonder if he has Ragdoll in his family history somewhere.
Are there any other breeds that have that as a typical characteristic?
