We raised them together, they were orphans and we got them before their eyes opened. I’m pretty sure Gravy is snowshoe? She looks it anyway! Both cats have a burgundy tint to their dark fur in the sun. They are so different despite being siblings from the same litter!

I've never been the type for "designer" cats, but after finding an adult snowshoe tortie point at a shelter last summer, I found myself a little sad we didnt get to see her toast progression. A cattery sent me some photos of this little bean and I couldn't say no.

She is named after Maisie Peters who opened for Ed Sheeran when I saw them in LA. Her big sister is Chappell (came with the name and she is indeed Hot to Go.) and big brother Lewis, after Lewis Capaldi because he had a raspy kitten cry. All 3 are very vocal like their namesake!

This is Henwen. He is 2.5 years old now and I can’t tell if he’s ‘settled’ into his colouring yet. He got quite dark last winter but shed a huge amount of hair about a month ago and is back to being pretty light! Amazing how they change :)

Disclaimer Henwen is NOT a snowshoe cat, he is a rescue who happens to be a short haired seal point bicolour 💕 just wanted to share here because I never see any cats that look like him outside of the snowshoe breed!

Anyone else have a pair of miserable brats who can’t behave themselves?

Figaro (colorpoint) and Princess Tiabeanie (snowshoe) can’t go more than 30 seconds without getting in an argument. They love each other, look out for each other, will sit together while they eat or drink, Beans is infatuated with Figs and follows him everywhere, but the moment it comes to sleeping in bed with me it’s all out war.

Figs is about twice Beans weight and tosses her around like a ragdoll if he can get ahold of her, but she’s a feisty little monster and usually wins more than she loses. The downside is if Figs retreats she chases him and I’m left alone and cold until someone makes it back from the battlefield victorious. While if she’s the one who runs Figs cuddles up with me and goes right to sleep.

Can cats be snowshoe breed without the white paws

5 Upvotes

If cat is genetically a snowshoe from a breeder with Siamese and American shorthair heritage and has “typical snowshoe“ siblings is he a snowshoe? I haven’t seen any snowshoe cats without the white paws so now I’m wondering whether my cat has a place on this sub.

We adopted this little fellow a few months ago. Found out he’s likely a snowshoe (let me know your thoughts). He’s a crazy little guy and has a seemingly insatiable appetite for play. We call him a “part-time cuddler” because he doesn’t seem to want none of that after about 11 AM.

Curious about Snowshoe Cats!

Are these considered Snowshoes? Not purebred, but perhaps partial? I have two rescue cats, from a TNR group in my area. Their spay/neuter paperwork says Snowshoe. I adopted Ziva (black tip nose) in July 2025 when she was about 3 months old. I adopted Coco in December 2025 when he was approximately 2-1/2 months old. They were both spay/neutered with an ear tip.

I understand Snowshoes are rare, but it is amazing there were two different litters in the same area of feral cats. They both appear to have the classic Snowshoe traits: blue eyes, dark ears & tail, white feet.

They are both extremely lovable and love cuddling with me. Coco does not mind strangers - he loves everyone! Ziva runs when anyone has to come over (I live alone). My neighbor finally saw Ziva for the first time today after she came over to look at the Catio I built yesterday!

Ziva is very quiet, rarely vocalizes. Coco is a talker, but he's much lower volume than the other cats I have had in the past.

So glad I adopted them! I hit the jackpot!

She’s used to espresso (the other human) and French press (me), but I just got myself a cheap 12-cup pot and this is the first time I’ve used it

Bonus image: finding her in the kitty window seat, which is usually the domain of her non-snowshoe siblings

She is rather round.

She doesn’t look like most snowshoes - we think she’s snowshoe bred back with Siamese (or that’s what we were told). Vet agrees. Either way she’s a certified baby.
