Snowball was my feline buddy for several years. His long-haired coat added to his feline dignity.


Underneath all that fur and dignity, Snowball had a sense of humor. In the picture below, he is ready for a game of “chase Snowball up-and-down-the-stairs”. This started when he ran up the stairs, then, just when I got to the top of the stairs, he would run down, and the game continued until I refused to chase him anymore. I wouldn’t be surprised if he laughed to himself as he played the game.


Snowball accompanied us when we moved to a rural area. Not long after we moved there, other cats joined our household. Since Snowball had been an only cat all his life, we were concerned, but he handled the changes well.

Snowball was beautiful, or should I say handsome? From the photos he appears to be all white.
Growing up my family always had a couple of dogs and one cat. It was great to have two different kinds of pets.
Thanks for sharing about your feline friends. I enjoy your photos and stories! Blessings.
Snowball was all white. He used to lay under the Christmas tree, on the white sheet. His shining eyes were the giveaway to his hideout.
