A Thoughtful, Personality-First Matching Process
We believe choosing a kitten should feel calm, guided, and intentional — not rushed or overwhelming.
At Shades of Sapphire Ragdolls, we focus on personality, lifestyle alignment, and long-term happiness for both our kittens and their families.
This page walks you through how our matching process works, step by step.
We Learn About Your Home & Lifestyle
Every family and home is different.
We take time to understand your daily rhythm, household dynamics, and expectations — because the right environment matters just as much as the right kitten.
We Thoughtfully Guide the Match
Rather than a first-come or first-pick system, we take a guided approach to placement.
By combining what we learn about each kitten with what we learn about your home, we’re able to recommend the kitten most likely to thrive with you — setting everyone up for long-term success.
Placement Happens When the Time Is Right
Our matching process isn’t about speed — it’s about readiness.
We take the time needed to ensure each kitten is placed thoughtfully, when both the kitten and the family are truly ready. This approach allows for confident placements, smooth transitions, and lifelong bonds.
When the time is right, we’ll guide you every step of the way.
What Happens Next
If you feel aligned with our approach, the next step is to join our waitlist and complete our pre-approval questionnaire and, if approved, join our Priority Notification List.
This allows us to begin learning about you and your home, and ensures thoughtful, personality-placement when the time is right.
