My daddy's kitty cat. Such a beautiful kitten! Possibly snowshoe mix?

My dad sent me a pic tonight of the stray kitten he is going to keep. Whenever I get down there I am going to take her to the vet and have her spayed/vaccinated for him. :) She looks like a snowshoe mix, doesn't she? Possibly himi mix? She is absolutely beautiful!


For months my dad has been taking care of the feral and stray cats in the mobile home park where he lives, but this one has really made herself at home and my dad has her very social and plans on keeping her. Her name is Snowball. I am attaching a pic of her.

Yes that is 7up in the background. Since my father no longer drinks alcohol he drinks 7up. See our old Lincoln in the back? :D

Oh my gosh, she is beautiful. So glad your Dad is keeping her. She really is just so so cute:D

That is a really pretty cat.!!!

Your dad has great taste in kitties.:D

Give her a scratch for me when you see her.

She's gorgeous, but I don't think she's a snowshoe. I've never seen such a beautiful kitty wandering the street.

Thanks! :D He actually has about 40 or so cats he takes care of, but sadly since he can barely support himself because of his health problems few are spayed and just keep reproducing. One day they just showed up and then it was a big boom. He does the best he can for them, feeds them and gives them water and occasionally lets them in to his trailor. He is allergic to fleas so they don't stay in long. She will also be treated with Frontline when I go down there, and he hopes to make her an inside kitty. It's sad as he knows he can't save them all. :(

She was born there to one of the feral females. She does look like she has snowshoe ancestry in her. The dark points don't come from nowhere. ;) There are several beautiful stray that look like that born in the park.

She is gorgeous!!!!
Good for your dad (on all accounts) :)

Yes, I know the dark points didn't come from nowhere, but snowshoes aren't the only breed with dark points. I was just giving my opinion is all. I could be wrong. Its happened before.

The cat just doesn't resemble a snowshoe at all to me.

Actually it's not a snowshoe I am thinking about, it's something similar. Darnet, I can't remember the name........but I will find out.
Also I know they are not the only cats with points.

Ragdoll is actually what I mean. I always get those two confused. :o

Whatever she is, she is beautiful! What a catch!

Luckies4me,

I think she looks more like a Chocolate Point Himilayan/Siamese mix. She IS beautiful!! I do hope she gets spayed soon. It only takes once for a cat to get pregnant.

Hope all is well with your dad.

Yeah, my brother has a Chocolate Point Himilayan that resembles her. I don't know a whole lot about cat breeds though. I've always had "mutts". :)

Snowshoe is just purrecious. Is there a local rescue organization or shelter that could help your dad out with the cats? I know he is doing as much as he can and he deserves a lot of thanks. I am sorry he is not well, but I know this beautiful new kitty will make him feel better.

She's gorgeous!! :D (But then, I'm a sucker for blue eyes... ;) )
