Hi!
I just wanted to say how glad I am to find another breeder of minks that truly stands behind them and knows their roots!
I have started showing one of my minks in TICA and would love to talk to you!
Send me an email!
I currently run the National Cat Fanciers' Association Registry and found your website because I was looking for "mink" colored Ragdolls. You are the only one out there with the pictures and I would like to see a more detailed description of the mink and sepia colorations on your site so I can refer people to it. These are not-so-well-known colors and this would be good for your site. Education is what we should be promoting--and a beautiful, healthy, loving FurKid. Great job--I was impressed. On another note, were you aware NCFA was the first Registry to recognize and register the Ragdoll Breed..... Look forward to visiting your site again--
Linda, NCFA
I too had a horrible experience with a DC breeder. I waited months without word of a kitten and lost a rather large deposit. Thankfully I stumbled across Heather's site and now have the pleasure of being the "mother" of my own steadily growing tumble of fluff.
Grendel cries when he wants my attention or when he realizes I left the room without him noticing. He loves play in any form. He has become the monster he is named for because I taught him to stand on my shoulders. ha ha. Now he takes his own initiative to climb there, painfully I might add. he always needs to know what I'm doing, especially in the kitchen. I couldn't love him more if I had given birth to him myself. lol
Thanks again Heather, I'll send more pictures soon.
After going through a terrible experience with another ragdoll breeder the DC area I thought I would give up my search in looking for a ragdoll. I then found the Castletopdolls site and they had a couple of kittens available I had seen this cattery years ago and forgot it existed when I seen it was still up and running I went immediately and found the kitten of my dreams. Thank you Heather you were kind and allowed me to come in to your home and see all your nice breeding cats and you sent many pics of my kitten as he grew.
I would like to congradulate you on your website and your beautiful cats. I also commend you on your de-sexing practices, here in Australia we are being pressured into early spaying which i stronly dissagree with. Mine go with a contract and a small refund as an incentive to fulfill the contract, so far so good. I am very interested in the solid and mink ragdolls, at the moment we are trying very hard to have them recognised as part of the breed for showing, some are applying for an outcross program I would how ever prefer to stick to the original lines if possible, as from research I know they are there in the background. If you could help I would be forever gratefull.
Yours Warmly

Hi Sue You tooo have beautiful cats!!
Heather Kerns
I purchased a kitten a year ago and she is just an amazing cat she follows me everywhere and never uses her claws. I can see why this breed has a no Declaw they are gentle and are thoughtful about scratching you maybe its just my ragdoll but they are indeed a special breed and the breeder at Castletopdolls was very kind to us and even answered our emails months later about any questions we had.
I had the pleasure of meeting one of your kittens with his owner at Carney vet's yesterday. She was kind enough to give me your website. I am considering placing my name on your wait list.
I have had kitties for many years, and am fairly certain an adopted and well loved kitten who lived a long life had a great resemblence to a ragdoll by appearance and temperament.I have always been on the look-out for the breed and was pleased to see that there is a lovely breeder just up the road from me.
I also did show Shepherds many years ago and I see you have a love of them as well!
I enjoyed your website . I will be in touch.
Best

I am Co owner of three wonderful breeding cats from Heather Kerns and have a small cattery called Blueheaven dolls come check me out. www.Blueheavendolls.com
Purchased a ragdoll here 3 years ago and wanted to say that my cat is up to 20 pounds and is so special he flops at peoples feet and loves water he purrs non stop and is so human like. I wonder what Castletopdolls does to make her kittens so human like :) maybe its the socialization she gives ? I don't know but he just loves everyone. when we got him back in 06 he hid under the bed and cried for the breeder or maybe cried for his mommy then that night he came out and we will not forget how he all the sudden jumped up in our beds and slept by my head the whole night. I will be planning to get another cat from here and I hope my current cat agrees to it he needs a playmate I think because I am now a full time nurse :( and hate to see him all alone
I have a wonderful smart ragdoll from this breeder. I tried doing business with another cattery closer to me in DC and they were very forgetful and forgot that I was wanting to purchase a certain cat.. they sold my cat that I was sending in a deposit for the very day I went to send in my money my cat was sold. Im so glad I did not go as far as putting it in the mail box, they did not care about the customer only the sale and would have sold it to any one.
I cannot tell you how happy We are with our \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Little Annie\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\", that we are so blessed to have from you!! She is Absolutely the most loveable lil fat baby I have ever had!! In my 37 years on this earth I have had many kitties and loved them all special in their own way...This little girl is a Queen, sweet, beautiful, affectionate, never hisses, just wants to love on my 2 other cats..Even when my 3 yr old taps her on the head! Annie just purrs away and just wants to love on her! What a Wonderful Breed! I am Hooked! My next kitten will most definately be a Ragdoll from Castle top Dolls! Perfect Pet! Thanks! I will be sending Pic\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s, Lil Annie is the 1st kitten you see when you go to look at the Kittens section, she is on a chair and the 2nd pic is her on same chair rolling on her back! I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'m in Love! Thanks Again!
