"Cassie Lane"
Soulmates Cassie Lane of Velvet Rags               
Blue Mitted with Blaze
Retired Breeder

Cassie Lane is a dignified beauty to behold with her striking eye color, lovely markings, sweet disposition, and outgoing personality.  Her
eyes are extremely blue and seem mystical.  This dream cat does everything with class and is all a Ragdoll should be.  She is the top cat here
and uses wisdom in keeping all the other cats in line.  Her kittens were just as outgoing as herself and quite a few have had plans to rule the
world. We have kept several of her daughters to add to our breeding program as we really liked her line. Cassie Lane has now retired from
breeding and has made it very clear she wishes to stay as a resident cat here at Velvet Rags.     She now holds the title of Sales Associate.   
Please note that in the picture in the middle Cassie is still a breeding cat and on the right she is an alter.  Between weight gain and extra coat
she looks to be twice the cat that she was as a breeding cat. Because an altered cat will have more coat and weight than a breeding cat, our
breeding cats are not always an example of what our altered kittens will look like.

"Trixie"
Velvetrags Trixie   
Seal Mitted
Cassie Lane X Darcy

Trixie is a wonderful mixture of her mother Cassie Lane and her father Darcy.  From her mother she got her smarts and blaze.  Her blaze is
so perfect it looks as if someone painted it on her face.   Her fur is thick and her tail looks like a bottle brush. In personality she resembles
her father with a plethora of enduring qualities.   When she is in the mood for love none can resist her.  She likes to lay on our chest and if for
some reason she feels she is not getting enough attention she will mock nip our nose (just like her father does).   There is only a problem
when she combines her smarts with being naughty.  She looks up to her Auntie Fudge and attempts to copy her obnoxious behavior.
"Angel"
Soulmate Angel of Velvetrags     
Blue Mitted Lynx

Angel is a blue mitted lynx with attractive blue eyes.  She is very decorative lounging around and is an easy going girl getting along with
everyone.   She does have this irresistible urge to kiss anyone she sees.  She has actually stopped running across a room when we say, "Angel
kisses," changing direction in order to plant one on us.   One time when she got outside we were able to catch her by again saying, "Angel
kisses."  She never demands anything but is always thankful when called or given attention.

Song:  "I Believe In God," by Zoe Girl.
Moto:  "True beauty comes from within."
"Addy"
Vunderland Addy of Velvetrags    
Blue Mitted Tortie

Addy is a blue mitted tortie with lush soft fur and just a little bit of sass to make her interesting.   When picked up she melts like butter in our
arms resting her head on our shoulder.  Preferring human company to cat, she chats with us about all sorts of matters.  Like all torties she
has strong opinions.  Her coat is full with an impressive plume like tail.  She has added some nice variety to our breeding program.

Song:  "Super Girl," by Krystal Harris from the movie, "Princess Diaries."
Moto:  "Humans respond best to cat needs when cats are very vocal about what they want."
Goal:  "To make slaves of all around me, to do my bidding."  
"Tess"
Bethelcats Tess of Velvetrags  
Seal Bicolor
Winter Bliss X Tucker

Tessa has worked her way into our hearts and laps with all her endearing qualities.  First of all, she greets us with a chatty meow and bounces
across a room to say HI a lot like Tigger (of Winnie the Pooh) does.  In an effort to convince us to give her a good belly rub she will flop on
her side.  If she is rewarded with her goal she will turn on her very loud purr.   She always says THANK YOU with her eyes.   She will lay right
next to us as close as she can get.    She has proven to love motherhood as the kittens seem to give the best belly rubs ever while they nurse.   
Midnight blue is the best description of her eye color which can at times be hard to notice because they are so dark.

Favorite Book: "Winnie the Pooh and Tigger too."
"Pixie"
Velvetrags Pixie   
Seal Mitted
Cassie Lane X Darcy

With a baby doll face and a feather like tail Pixie is a pleasure for the eye to behold.   She is like a moving, breathing work of art.  Petting her
coat is a luxury.  Upon seeing her, visitors have simply said, "Wow."  She is large like her mother, Cassie Lane.    She enjoys taking care of
any kittens around acting like a big sister.   When the house is quiet and dark she likes to give all her love to who ever happens to be on the
couch at the time.   We definitely take advantage of those moments.  She considers her mother Cassie Lane to be her mentor.
"Brook"
Soulmates Brook of Velvet Rags   
Blue Mitted Lynx

Brook came from another cattery when it closed and we are so excited to have her.  She is happiest when she has found a human lap to keep
warm by.  She craves any and all attention she can get and likes to be held on her back like a baby.  She has been known to use her paws to
pull our face closer in order to give kisses.  When she is happy she needs to lick something and if a human hand is not around then she will
lick the air.  Her adorable face structure makes her look as if she is smiling all the time.   We often call her kittens velcro babies because they
crave human attention.
"Violet"
Champion Velvetrags Violet  
Blue Bicolor
Cassie Lane X Darcy

Violet is by far the best cat we have produced yet here at Velvet Rags.  She has everything a Ragdoll should have wrapped up into one
package.  She earned the title of Champion her first show and in her best ring won 1st place out of 38 other cats.  She thrived at the show
because she loves people who agree with her that she is beautiful.  Violet is an incurable flirt and species or gender is no barrier.  Her boning
is large, her coat is plush and ideal, her eyes are dramatically blue, and her temperament is mellow and floppy.   Violet is under the delusion
that she has opposable thumbs.  She picks up her dry food with her paw and puts it in her mouth.  This seems to be a behavior she has
learned from watching her humans.  Obviously it is a cleaner and more proper way to eat.
