Purrecious Snowball

Snowball's story is reminiscent of Cleveland Amory's rescue of Polar Bear. Amory too was surprised to discover, after several baths, that he had a white cat. When I found my bedraggled, starving white cat 13 years ago, I thought of Polar Bear and named her Stella, for stella polaris, the polar star.

Thank goodness for people like you who rescue beautiful creatures like Snowball and do what it takes to give them a loving home. It has to be said - tooooo many people in this world obviously do not understand what the the "human" part of "human being" means. So many of the Cat of the Day (and cats at the many many shelters and rescues in this world, and dogs too for that matter) have been subject to negligence, ignorance (voluntary or otherwise), cruelty, cheapness, etc. of supposed "human beings". It is heartbreaking to know but heartwarming to read how so many of us catlovers have saved them from further harm. Depending on where you are, tougher laws need to be demanded of your politicians or this suffering will continue and it is already overwhelming.

Thanks to Snowball's family he is one of the lucky ones - and all of our furry friends should be this lucky.

WOW! This handsome kitty drew an unusual number of responses! He's a beautifully handsome boy, for sure, and as for the sorry state he was in, we found a kitty like that when I was a kid. I believe the Lord has a special place in His Heart for those who love and rescue and then take care of animals who have become unable to care for themselves.
I'm amazed at how white Snowball is but one thing is certain- he is aptly named, for sure.
Snowball, may you have a long, happy, healthy life with your caretaker(s) with lots of good food, warm sunny days in which to galavant around the house and cool, cozy evenings to sleep and recharge for the next day. Your fur looks really soft. I hope your caretaker brushes you on a regular basis, at least a couple of times a week. It appears they already do. I also hope they keep you inside. It's been proven that indoor kitties live considerably longer lives than outdoor kitties.
May the Lord bless you, dear caretaker, for doing what you did for this wonderful kitty. It's obvious he loves you. May the Father hold you close to His heart.
Take care, my friend(s).

I see you live in England. Central Kentucky is a beautiful part of our state. I hope you will go to a search engine when you have time, set it in "Images", then type in one of the following- "Horse farms in Lexington, KY" --- "Horse farms on Pisgah Pike, Woodford County, KY" and "Lexington, KY". You'll find I live in a really pretty part of the world. "Lexington, Kentucky, the Horse Capital of the World"
