My Story
Hi. I’m Snowball. Yes, I know. I’m gray. No, I was not discovered in a pile of slushy mystery snow. (At least… I don’t think so.) Let’s just say the name stuck and I’ve decided to own it. Now, since I believe in transparency when interviewing potential humans, here’s what you should know about me:I am a calm, cuddly, sweet girl who believes the world would be a better place if everyone paused for more lap time. I adore gentle pets, soft blankets, and warm laps that are both willing and available.I’ve been told I’m affectionate and intelligent — and honestly? I won’t argue. If you enjoy having thoughtful conversations with your cat, I am absolutely your girl. I listen. I respond. I probably know how the story ends. (I always guess the ending.) Speaking of which… my foster mom reads me bedtime stories. I enjoy them very much — mostly because they put me right to sleep, which is when I curl up on her lap and pretend I wasn’t already dozing. Adorable? Obviously. Now, let’s discuss my charming quirks: I like to perch on the sink and gently tap my human’s shoulder for pets. Some call it demanding. I call it efficient communication. I must have kicker toys and wand toys. They are non-negotiable. I am well-read and emotionally intelligent. (See bedtime story comment above.)A tiny note: loud noises like thunderstorms and fireworks are not my favorite. I prefer calm vibes. If you sit with me for a few minutes during the booms, I’ll settle right down. Moral support is important.My ideal home? Quiet, cozy, loving. Comfortable laps.Nice people to chat with.A few good toys.Maybe some older, respectful kiddos.As for other furry roommates? I haven’t formed an official opinion yet. We can discuss that later.So… if you’re searching for a clever, gentle, slightly quirky, story-loving feline companion, I might just be your missing piece.Come meet me. I’ll be the gray “Snowball” with excellent taste in literature and very high lap standards. WE DO NOT HAVE A PHYSICAL LOCATION AS WE ARE A FOSTER-BASED ORGANIZATION.
