Cinnamon Ragdoll: A Real Color and Internet Star
Cinnamon is an officially recognized Ragdoll coat color, listed by the International Cat Association alongside seal, blue, chocolate, lilac, fawn, red, and cream. The shade is a warm reddish-brown produced by a modifying gene acting on black pigment, distinct from the darker brown chocolate color caused by a different gene. Ragdolls of any color, including cinnamon, retain the breed’s signature blue eyes.
The cat that has brought this color into the spotlight is Bubba, the TikTok star known as the internet’s chocolate boy. Bubba’s coat is a cinnamon shade, and his family calls him “everyone’s chocolate boy.” His fluffy brown fur and striking blue eyes have attracted many admirers online. Commenters frequently praise him as one of the cutest cats they’ve seen, and Bubba appears unfazed by the attention, often posing confidently for the camera.
Bubba’s popularity highlights how a cinnamon coat can stand out while the cat’s demeanor remains calm and self-assured. The social media presence offers plenty of opportunities to appreciate his coat, eyes, and unmistakable expression.
