Meet The Breeder

Hi my name is Kari, I started this journey in 2005 caring for cats and kittens in a refuge setting at my home here in the Midwest. Over the next 15 years I hand-raised hundreds of kittens, and provided care to local cats as well. Then, in 2020 we got our first Ragdoll and saw firsthand just how therapeutic and life-changing they are. In the search for a second Ragdoll I had a difficult time finding a both ethical and reputable breeder. That struggle inspired me to create a place where people could find their perfect kitten without all the difficulty and worry of legitimacy and health concerns. Furthermore, I wanted to offer a fun and engaging experience for families in search of a kitten, rather than just a sale. I strive to foster life-long relationships between myself and kitty parents, and I’m happy to offer ongoing support if needed or desired. I have to mention here that I could not have accomplished all I have without the support of my family. I have five children, two of whom are still at home and help me run my cattery with hearts and arms full of love. Our ultimate goal here at CIRR is to provide every kitty parent with a seamless and fun experience. I hope my passion, dedication and appreciation for cats and kittens shines through in bold colors and THANK YOU for being the BEST part of what we do!

Our Story

We began this journey in 2005, caring for cats and kittens here in central Iowa, and over time developed a focus on solely Ragdolls and Ragamuffins, after finding out firsthand just how therapeutic they are. We specialize in providing the best personalities a cat can have, that you can be proud and excited to introduce to all your friends and family. We have provided many families with their dream cat, as they report, and many have even gone on to register as Emotional Support Animals. We want you to have the kind of cat that you can travel with, teach tricks to, and that offers you unconditional love and daily entertainment for many years to come.

Kari is wonderful to work with and goes above and beyond with communication, providing all the information you need and promptly answering any questions or concerns throughout the process. Ground transportation is easy to coordinate if you are not local, making the adoption process convenient and stress-free. I would not hesitate to recommend this ethical and reputable cattery to anyone looking for a Ragdoll kitten. My Ragdoll is healthy, affectionate, and has an amazing temperament. We couldn't be happier with our experience and would gladly work with CIRR again in the future.

She’s a beautiful white ragdoll with a unique mark on her face so I named her macchiato. Maki for short. Kerri has been fantastic in following up and answering any questions I have as I am a new cat owner. Maki has adapted very well to her new home and she is easily trained and has not had a single accident.

When you reserve a kitten , she sends weekly updates and pictures. She is always there to answer questions. We’ve been very happy with our boy. He made himself right to home as soon as we brought him in the door. I recommend her to anyone looking into the Ragdoll breed.

Kari was incredibly communicative, knowledgeable, and clearly dedicated to the breed and each kittens well being. We received weekly updates with details on how the litter was doing with photos/videos. Our Olly has been the sweetest boy, and we couldn’t be happier! If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, ethical, kind breeder Kari is the best.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hi, my name is Lindsay and I am the proud owner of a male ragdoll. His name is Marshmallow. I’ll give you a brief backstory. In April 2025 I was admitted to the ICU.  After months of treatment, physical therapy and speech therapy, I was able to go home. Being a single Mom with two boys and the boys not being able to see mommy took a toll on them.  My cat at the time was taken in graciously by my younger sister, her family and small children in North Carolina. There was something missing because there wasn’t a furry little cat running. I was mediating one morning and I took a break to look at Facebook where I saw so many forums, breeders and people across the country posting kittens for sale. I was meant to look at Facebook that day. I fell in love and immediately wanted a kitty. It was a magical dream and I wasn’t sure how I was going to get a kitty for me and my sweet little family.  That’s when Kari reached out. The love, communication, warmth and the professionalism was top-notch. She communicated with me regularly and kindly offered to show me kittens. There was one male left who was about four months old. I couldn’t turn back! We FaceTimed, shared pictures and my kids got to talk to Marshmallow. We kept in touch after that sweet little boy was dropped off so his nursery Mom knew he was OK. Kari adores these kittens as if they were babies. Marshmallow was brought by courier and when he arrived safe and sound just like Kari had explained we were over the moon. He had a litter box, toys, bedding, blanket, dry food, raw homemade kitten food individuality sealed, treats, catnip, a backpack, litter and of course every single document that proves his breed.  The information was in the details were incredible. He had been microchipped, examined and had his immunizations as well. I have never felt so good about making a decision then I do right now and the disease that I am battling doesn’t seem so heavy anymore. He was loved from the second we were told that he was ours. The joy in our home was forever changed. I didn’t know I had love in my heart like I do for this cat. He’s more than a cat, ragdoll’s are family. Anyone, and I mean anyone can hold, brush, feed, play or sleep with Marshmallow.  He is the most darling cat anyone has ever seen. In fact I have family members who have joked around saying that they’re going to take him home! All of this to say one thing, you can trust and be guaranteed the same professional, warm feeling I received from day one. Oh and did I mention he is stunning! Perfect white hair, beautiful tail, little dark panda ears, pink nose, and his eyes are the most beautiful shade of blue. Please consider taking my recommendation and trust me, you will not be disappointed.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our family just purchased a Ragdoll kitten from Central Iowa Ragdolls. Kari was wonderful to work with! We were very impressed with how easy she made the whole process, from start to finish. She was very responsive and made everything a breeze. After getting him, the transition was so easy because of everything she sent with for him, and all of the information and tips. She gave our kitten the very best start possible in life, we are so appreciative of that. He’s been an absolute perfect addition to our family. We’d recommend her to anyone looking for a kitten. You won’t regret it!! Thank you Kari!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our family has always adored ragdolls and when our beloved Purrsephone passed we were heartbroken. After a few weeks, we decided to search for a new ragdoll to join our family. We found a Central Iowa Ragdolls through the TICA website and were very impressed with the level of love and care Kari raises her kittens with. She’s both TICA and CFA certified, which is very important when looking for a reputable kitten breeder. She is very knowledgeable about her kittens and answered all of our questions and did a great job at keeping in touch. Every kitten we encountered when meeting her was obviously well cared for and well socialized, as well as beautifully bred. We purchased Aphfurdite (nursery name Strawberry) and fell in love with her playful and cuddly temperament. She  fits right into our family perfectly! Aphfurdite even befriended our (human) baby and now they’re inseparable. If you are looking for a fantastic breeder for ragdolls, ragamuffins, or British long hairs, Central Iowa Ragdolls and Ragamuffins is one of the best places to look.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have two ragdoll kittens from CIR. They are 6 months old now and are very lovable and active. They get along great with our Golden retriever. We are very satisfied with the quality of the kitties and the information we have been provided by CIR over the last 6 months. If we ever want another kitten it would be a CIR kitten.
