Magnificent looking Seal Colourpointed Ragdoll individual with a magnificent temperament to go with it. Head has stunning appearance with great breadth at the cheekbone level and remarkable width between medium large ears emphasized by his tendency to hold them out when charming his audience, so that when he does this he looks almost flat from ear tip to ear tip, not quite correct but very dramatic. He can however bring them into a more conventional set when they tilt appropriately. Short, strong, deep, broad rounded muzzle. Eyes of size with a benign expression, smoky blue shade. Shallow curve to the profile, aligned chin, strong deep muzzle. Lengthy strong body, proportionate powerful limbs and balanced length of tail. Profuse semi longhair coat with silkiness to it, well developed ruff and trowsers, tufts to the large paws and well furnished tail. Some body shading but good contrast to the seal points.
