Welcome to the world of "Gemme Preziose"

 
My name is Maria Rita, I have always had a predilection for the cat breed that I have loved since childhood!
My memory lingers to my childhood, when I spent the summer in a country cottage and after much insistence made my mom to have a cat of my own, I finally found waiting for me a little kitten European in the small garden of c asa. .. it was love at first sight!
 
I was watching her in everything she did, I spent whole days studying her movements, behaviors and there was no shortage of games to play together!
I was well in his company and he gave me so much joy.
After so many years she is gone but her memory is indelible and the passion for cats has never faded.
This passion, as you can well understand, I have also passed on to my family: my three daughters Gemma, Gloria and Miriam and even my husband began to fall in love with cats but particularly with Ragdolls!
 
In 2007 I began to get interested in this feline breed, I was struck by their extraordinary beauty but above all what most distinguishes them from any other feline breed: the CHARACTER.
Any cat I have picked up has always left me a few scratches and so have my daughters, but never our ragdolls; studying this breed I realized that I had reached the TOP and I could finally keep cats at home in my comfortable apartment that would not have done me any "damage" but above all I could enjoy my cats together with my family because they are perfectly suitable for domestic life and in addition to this, also suitable for pet therapy.
 
I HAD A GOAL: to open a small amateur breeding to make this unique breed known and appreciated, especially in Sicily and I succeeded!
For me and my family it is a great joy to carry on this amateur breeding despite involving, in addition to the passion and love they deserve, a great commitment.
 
NB: The necessity of physical contact with the human being for the Ragdoll is essential especially in the first months of life, so that the character of these puppies develops fully and they can in turn bring joy, beauty, sweetness to other families or people who they want and love this cat that is truly "UNIQUE" of its kind and in turn receive the same.
 
Our cats as breeding animals have been tested for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Syndrome), FELV ( Feline Leukemia Virus) and HCM (Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy).
