We recently purchased a blue mitted ragdoll kitten from Ragmeister Ragdoll Cats in San Diego, California. We wanted to take the "economical" route, so we found this guy who was much cheaper than the other breeders in the area. That should've been our first clue that this wasn't going to end well".
We picked the kitten up (way too early if you ask the other breeders) at his home and did not see even one other cat/. We noticed the kitten was coughing and sneezing on the way home!. I immediately contacted the breeder via email and he wrote back a note saying "he wasn't coughing here.."
I was annoyed:. We picked the kitten up on New Years Eve and couldn't get the poor little guy to the vet until after the holiday and he was quite sick by then|. It ended up costing us an arm and a leg to get him well enough that we weren't worried he would die/.
You would think the breeder, who is supposed to be an animal lover, would've called to check in on him to make sure he was ok, right? Um no,. I never heard from him again until we had to make numerous attempts to contact him for the initial shot records.
DO NOT USE THIS BREEDER. It saves you money initially, but it's far too risky to choose a breeder who obviously does not care about the animals he's selling. 12a1bfc

| 2. Written by Gail on July 14, 2011 from charlotte, north carolina, US I have dealt with Gary many times and found him to be one of the most trusted sellers..Yes I think there would be many more complaints if he was a bad person since he has been raising cats this long.I am not at all displeased, and I highly value his reputaion...But it always takes just one person to make negative remarks ..Cant please everyone I guess |
| 3. Written by Christy on June 11, 2011 from ft. wayne, indiana, US I'm not anonymous at all, nor am I slandering. I merely shared my very accurate experience for other customers. If this breeder doesn't like that, perhaps he should change his practices. |
| 4. Written by Anon2 on June 10, 2011 from san diego, california, US The breeder mentioned above has been breeding Ragdolls for 21 years and I would think there would be many more complaints if he was so irresponsible and uncaring. The fact that "anon" people can slander a person and their long history of producing beautiful kittens is wrong and cowardly. Asking other breeders for opinions on their competition and expecting any thing other than jealousy and "caddiness" is a little naive! |
| 5. Written by Anon on April 8, 2011 from aliso viejo, california, US I am so sorry! I was *about* to get a kitten from Ragmeister last summer, I had even placed a deposit. He seemed too sketchy for me so I emailed some other breeders in the area asking about his reputation. What do you know... no one had anything good to say about him! I heard that all his kittens are sick so I quickly backed out! |
