Houston "Our Snowshoe"
Uploaded: April 16, 2014 | Entered: April 16, 2014 13:06:42
This is Houston who is 8 1/2 years old and is a Snowshoe. They have failed to be able to breed this cat, and they are accidental genetic off-spring that have intense blue eye, white (snowshoes) and distinctive markings. He lives outside and on the back porch. He is very affectionate, healthy and a lover.

Emile, I've never heard of snowshoes, before! I had kitties that had little flat ears, can't remember the names of them, but like yours, they can't be bred, they're genetic! I think Houston is a fine specimen of a breed - how do you choose which kitty lives inside, which one lives at the surgery, and which lives outside? #11024945Jeff Robinson April 17, 2014
