Hi,
I posted on this forum 3 months ago when I got my first kitten and he was extremely scared. Everyone's replies helped tremendously. It took awhile but he got over his shyness, although he still runs under the bed when my dad gets home or a visitor comes over. But when its just me and him his a crazy little kitty.
When i first got him I read that ragdolls didnt shed which i thought was odd because they had such a long coat. He didnt lose much hair at the beginning but now Ive had him for 3 months (his 6 months old) and my room is covered. Other rooms arent as bad cause he spends most of his time in my room. When i brush him its insane how much hair comes off. I did read that ragdolls shed in Spring and in Australia we are one month into spring. So I'm hoping that is the case and its just a seasonal thing and his not sick or anything. Last time i went to the vet they said nothing was wrong but I'm finding a lot more hair everywhere now. Any ragdoll owners with similar problems.
Thank in advance for any advice or help
