Houston the" Snowshoe Cat"
Uploaded: June 29, 2011
This is one of my 18 cats named Houston. He is a rare breed called a "Snow Shoe Cat". He is very intelligent, quiet, loving and does not like to be left alone. He has gorgeous blue eyes and is a very sweet and loving cat. He lives outside on our back porch and in the back yard and rarely leaves the yard. He was a rescue at birth.

Oh, my, isn't he a beauty? Coincidentally, I have a rescue snowshoe also, Emile - and he goes by the name of Hank. He was so scrawny and malnourished when he came to us and had been thru so much that we wanted to give him the "toughest" name we could think of to befit all his courage. He's a fine strapping inside cat now full of life and vigor and gives us many smiles. This is a fine portrait of Houston - give him some "pets" from me! #9514084Emile Abbott July 07, 2011
