Are Ragdoll cats floppy from birth, or does that characteristic develop later in the cat's life?

Not sure about this. I have a Ragdoll male 1 year old, and from birth he was not floppy. But now he seems to be a little bit more yielding when I pick him up, so I wanted to know how other Ragdoll cats are in this regard. My cat is pure bred Ragdoll.

    Its kinda a myth about this. The Raggys I know (cause I show cats) are not all that "floppy". They relax more then others, but I would not call them more floppy then any other cat. I've had shorthair cats that were more docile and relaxed.

    In fact, I've seen some Raggys give judges a hard time and are FAR from docile/floppy!
