Bicolour Ragdoll Cats and Bi-Colour Ragdoll Kittens in Australia

A bicolour Ragdoll is the pattern with the most white: a white inverted V down the face, a white chest and belly, four white legs and a pink nose, with colour on the ears, outer mask and tail. It comes in seal, blue, chocolate and lilac, always with blue eyes. Most of this season's kittens at Regal Ragdoll Kittens in Bowral, NSW are bicolours, because our king Atticus is one.

The bicolour Ragdoll pattern, marking by marking

Read a bicolour from the face down. The mask is split by a white inverted V that starts between the eyes and opens out over the muzzle and chin. In a well-marked cat the V is roughly even on both sides and stays inside the outer edge of the eyes, but for a pet the exact shape makes no difference at all.

Below the face, the chest, belly and all four legs are white, including the feet. The back carries a soft wash of the point colour, which deepens as the cat ages, and some bicolours have a few white splashes on the back as well. The ears and tail are fully coloured. Because the nose and paws sit in the white, the nose leather and paw pads are pink.

Bicolour kittens are born white like all Ragdolls, and they can look almost entirely white for the first months. The points arrive slowly against so much white, which is why a young blue or lilac bicolour is often mistaken for a white Ragdoll.

Seal, blue, lilac and chocolate bicolour Ragdolls

Seal bicolour Ragdoll

The highest-contrast bicolour: near-black seal ears and tail against bright white. Adults in cool climates can look black and white in photos. Atticus, our king, is a seal bicolour, and so are several of this season's kittens. More on the colour is on our seal point Ragdoll page.

Blue bicolour Ragdoll

Slate grey ears, mask and tail with white, and a cooler, softer look than a seal. Blue bicolour kittens stay pale for a long time. Our blue point Ragdoll page explains how blue differs from lilac.

Lilac bicolour Ragdoll

The palest bicolour of all, with pinkish-grey points that barely show in young kittens. Poppy, our queen, is a lilac bicolour. See our lilac point Ragdoll page.

Chocolate bicolour Ragdoll

Warm milk-chocolate points with white. It is uncommon in Australia because both parents must carry chocolate. Our chocolate point Ragdoll page has the detail.

Bicolour vs mitted Ragdoll

The two white patterns are easy to mix up in kitten photos. This is the quickest way to tell them apart.

High-white and van bicolours

Some bicolours carry more white than usual, with colour only on the ears, the top of the mask and the tail. Some breeders and registries call this a high-white or van pattern. It is a variation of the bicolour, not a different breed, and it makes no difference to a pet's health or temperament.

Is a bicolour Ragdoll right for you?

Pattern is about where the white goes, not personality. That said, for a first Ragdoll I often point families toward a bicolour boy: they grow into big, easygoing cats, and the open white face makes their expressions easy to read. Temperament, size and grooming are covered in our Ragdoll cat breed guide, and every pattern and colour is compared in our Ragdoll colours guide.

Bicolour Ragdoll questions

What is a bicolour Ragdoll?

A bicolour Ragdoll is a pointed Ragdoll with a lot of white: a white inverted V on the face, a white chest and belly, and four white legs. The ears, the outer mask and the tail carry the colour, which can be seal, blue, chocolate or lilac. Like every Ragdoll, a bicolour has blue eyes.

Do bicolour Ragdolls have pink noses?

Yes. On a bicolour the nose sits inside the white inverted V, so the nose leather is pink rather than the colour of the points. The paw pads are pink too, because the legs and feet are white. That pink nose is one of the quickest ways to tell a bicolour from a colourpoint or a mitted.

Is a bi colour Ragdoll cat the same as a bicolor?

Yes. Bicolour, bi colour, bi-colour and bicolor all describe the same Ragdoll pattern. Australian and British breeders usually write bicolour, and American breeders write bicolor. The cat is the same: pointed, blue-eyed and white on the face, chest, belly and legs.

How much is a bicolour Ragdoll kitten?

From Regal Ragdoll Kittens a bicolour costs $1,500, the same as every other pattern and colour. The price includes desexing, microchipping, two F3 vaccinations, a vet check and ACF pedigree papers. Some breeders charge extra for very symmetrical show markings; we price every pet kitten the same.
