described as very similar and both have been crossed to old-style Persians to improve the

THE IRCA LONGHAIRS - RAGDOLLS, HONEYBEARS AND CHERUBIM CATS
(RAGAMUFFINS)
Baker's Cherubim Cats included Ragdolls, Miracle Ragdolls, Honey Bears, Doll Babies,
Baby Dolls, Shu Schoos, Catenoids and Little Americans among the fanciful names. The
origins included fanciful claims of secret government laboratories, infusions of skunk genes,
human genes and/or alien DNA while a Catenoid would supposedly produce Ragdolls
regardless of what you mated it to. Baker seemed increasingly unstable; she distributed
photos of herself amidst a hundred dead kittens that she claimed were killed by rival breeders
who broke into her home. Disturbed cat fanciers were certain she had killed them as part of a
publicity bid and tried to figure how to get other cats safely away from her (I recall the pleas
for information circulating on mailing lists at the time)
