We had what we think was a half rag doll half moggy (my moggy cat got very friendly with a neighbours cat and had kittens) She was excellent with children and loved to sit on laps and just get patted. She also 'flopped' when you picked her up and let you do what you wanted with her, so she just would be limp in the kiddy's arms, they loved it! Hair was an issue though, we just brushed her every day to keep it under control.
