Just another idea ... you might check Petfinder.com for ragdolls or similar breeds. Just punch in a zip code and there will probably be many in your region. If you like ragdolls, you might also like Norwegian Forest Cats (BIG ... the bull mastiff of cats) or a Birman, which is a little smaller and is a semi-longhair. Or you could certainly get a "mutt" with one of those breeds mixed in.
You might also look for some advice on introducing kitty to the dogs so that the doggies don't end up with hurt feelings. My sister got a kitten right when my brother in law got his puppy ... so the cat and dog are great friends. Her older cat just tolerates the dog, but the younger cat loves him. Ruger (the dog) just loves everybody and everything.
