Do Ragdolls go limp when picked up?

Over the last 15 years, one of my favorite things to tell novice Ragdoll owners has always been that Ragdolls are the best breed of cat in my opinion , but they are still fundamentally cats. They are all friendly and have great coats but the rest depends on what you teach them to do. If you want your kitten to be a lap cat you need to teach him that your lap is a great place to be. If you want her to get used to being carried around then reward her when she is calm and quiet after being held. They are very smart cats and easily taught whatever you want them to learn. Using an extra tasty treat like Gerber minced chicken helps a lot too.
