Welcome to Day Spring Ragdolls

Affectionate Ragdoll kittens raised with intention, gentleness, and care.

Welcome to Day Spring Ragdolls, where our ragdoll kittens are raised slowly, in a peaceful home environment, with hands-on attention and deep respect for their emotional development. We focus on temperament, connection, and calm—so our kittens grow into loving, confident companions.

No special paperwork or approvals are needed — just a loving home ready to welcome a new kitten.

Day Spring Ragdolls is a small, TICA-registered cattery and licensed with El Dorado County and is located on five quiet acres in Northern California.

Shingle Springs is in El Dorado County, CA. Sacramento is 40 miles from us, on HWY 50. We are nestled in the beautiful Gold Country Foothills in Northern CA. We service the surrounding areas like San Francisco (Bay area), Lake Tahoe, Reno, Carson City, Northern Nevada.

Our kittens are raised in our home, surrounded by gentle routines, daily handling, and intentional care. We believe the way an animal is raised matters—not only for health and beauty, but for the kind of companionship they offer for years to come.

Here, care is unhurried. Here, gentleness is practiced every day.
