Balinese vs Ragdoll

The Balinese is a longhaired Siamese, combining the Siamese's striking blue eyes and colorpoint pattern with a flowing, silky coat. Named for the graceful temple dancers of Bali (not for any Indonesian origin), the Balinese moves with the same elegant fluidity their name suggests. They share the Siamese's intelligence and social nature but are often described as having a slightly softer voice and calmer demeanor.

Ragdolls are large, strikingly beautiful cats famous for their tendency to go completely limp and relaxed when picked up — just like a ragdoll. With their stunning blue eyes, silky semi-long coat, and exceptionally gentle temperament, they are often called the most dog-like of all cat breeds. Their sweet, trusting nature and love of human company make them ideal indoor companions.
