Why do Ragdolls follow their owners so much?

Ragdolls exhibit their famous "puppy-cat" following behavior due to their exceptional memory (5/5) and strong social drive. While their social intelligence is rated 2/5, they form deep bonds and enjoy staying close to their trusted humans, indicating an affectionate nature rather than a highly strategic one. This constant companionship is a direct result of their desire for engagement and their ability to remember positive interactions.
