Ragdoll Kittens for Sale in Colorado

How a kitten gets from Sedona to Colorado

Choose a kitten, call us, and a $400 deposit holds it. A flight nanny carries it in the cabin from Phoenix to Denver in under two hours, or Colorado Springs when the schedule suits. Mountain-town families meet the flight in Denver and drive, and we time the landing so the drive is done in daylight.

Denver, and sometimes Colorado Springs

Denver is one of the busiest routes out of Phoenix, about an hour and three-quarters in the air with flights through the day, which makes it an easy morning for a flight nanny. Colorado Springs takes nonstop service too but less often. Mountain towns almost always mean meeting the flight in Denver and driving: Summit County is a couple of hours, Durango is most of a day, and in winter that drive needs planning more than the flight does.

Driving to us is also realistic: Denver to Sedona is about eleven hours through some of the better scenery in the country, and families from the Western Slope are closer still.

Altitude and dry air

Give a new kitten a quiet few days and do not be alarmed if it sleeps more than you expected in the first week. Cats adjust quickly. What does not adjust is the humidity, which in a Colorado winter indoors can sit in single figures. Wet food matters here more than almost anywhere: it is the simplest way to get water into a cat that has never learned to drink enough. Several bowls, and a fountain if your cat takes to one.

Winter, and the spare date

Denver weather turns fast and the airport closes when it does. February and March plans carry a spare date, and we would rather move a flight by a day than send a kitten into a storm system. Nobody has ever regretted waiting twenty-four hours.

The outdoor question, answered firmly

Colorado tempts people into letting a cat out. Coyotes, owls, foxes, cars and altitude weather all say no, and a Ragdoll has no instinct for any of them: it will walk up to a coyote to see what it is. Indoors, or a secure catio with a roof.

What it costs, and what is tested

$800 a kitten, every color and sex, with everything on this list. Travel is quoted for your airport and never bundled into the price. Both parents are DNA tested for HCM and PKD, the two inherited conditions the breed is known for. Every kitten leaves vaccinated and wormed for its age with the written record, seen by our vet, microchipped and registered in your name, and litter trained. Everything that travels with it.
