Snowshoe

Felis catus

✨ Dato Curioso

Snowshoe kittens are born completely white — their colorpoints and white 'snowshoe' patterns develop gradually over the first weeks and months.

Created by crossing Siamese with bicolor American Shorthairs to produce a colorpointed cat with white 'snowshoes' on all four paws. Medium-sized with vivid blue eyes and a gentle, quieter voice than Siamese. Rare breed, sweet-natured and devoted.
