Eliteragdolls

Eliteragdolls, Ragdolls breeder in Warren, Indiana, serves northeast Indiana near Fort Wayne. Melanie Leas has devoted more than a decade to breeding Ragdoll cats and participates in leading feline organizations, adhering to health-screening guidelines recommended for the breed.

All adult cats undergo annual cardiac screenings and genetic testing to manage risks of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Breeding adults are selected for health and temperament, with pedigrees traced through several generations to maintain the breed standard. Kittens are raised underfoot in a home environment with daily socialization and gentle handling to promote confidence and ease. Each cat lives in climate-controlled rooms with access to enriching toys and secure outdoor enclosures.

Leas draws on a background in animal care to support smooth transitions, offering guidance during a kitten’s first months in a new home. Homes visited for placement reflect a commitment to pairing each Ragdoll with a suitable family environment.
