Snowshoe Cat VS. Siamese Cat.
What are the differences between these two cat breeds?
This Siamese-American Shorthair mix’s affectionate and sweet disposition Snowshoe Cat is supplemented by distinctive fur markings and a strong body.
The sophisticated Siamese cat looks dressed for an elegant masquerade ball in pale evening wear with chic black accessories and tanzanite-blue eyes.
The Snowshoe has a short, smooth coat that’s easy to care for. Snowshoe kittens are born white. Their points begin to develop when they are a few weeks old and darken as the kitten matures. The body is usually a light cream color ranging from beige or tan with a seal or blue points. Other point colors such as chocolate or lilac are difficult to produce and rarely seen. Those colors also provide little contrast with the white paws. Paw pads and nose leather can be pink, the same color as the points; or a combination of the two.
Because Snowshoe’s pattern is recessive and involves several gene factors, it’s difficult to consistently achieve the desired look. No cat has perfect markings. Those who come closest to the ideal, the ones you’ll see in the show ring, have an inverted white V between the eyes and over the muzzle, two white mittens in the front, and two white boots in the back. The more symmetrical the markings, the better. Markings that are acceptable but not preferred include a blaze on the face or white markings on the chin, throat, and stomach.
It’s best if all four feet are solid white with dark points separating the white foot color from the light body color. White that goes too high or too low on the leg or face is a flaw and may put a kitten into the pet quality category depending on her other qualities. In a perfect world, a Snowshoe won’t have spots of the point color in the white areas or white streaks going from the white areas into the points. A Snowshoe glances at you with large, wide eyes of sparkling blue. The eyes are described as walnut-shaped, larger and rounder than the Siamese eye, but not as round as the eye of a Persian.
The rectangular body is firm and muscular, but never bulky. The Snowshoe resembles a runner, not a wrestler, but is more powerful than she looks. When you pick her up, you may be surprised at how substantial she feels. Medium-large ears top the slightly rounded head, which should be as wide as it is long. Medium-size paws are oval and taper to the toes.
What the Siamese looks like depends on the breed standard of each particular organization. Most cat associations call for the Siamese to have a svelte but muscular body with long lines. The wedge-shaped head is long and tapering from the narrow point of the nose outward to the tips of the ears, forming a triangle. The unusually large ears are wide at the base, pointed at the tip, giving them the same triangular shape as the head.
The short coat of the Siamese has a fine texture. In the Cat Fanciers Association, it comes in four colors, seal point, a pale fawn to the cream body with deep seal brown points and deep brown nose leather and paw pads; chocolate point, an ivory body with milk chocolate-colored points and cinnamon-pink nose leather and paw pads, blue point, a bluish-white body with deep blue points and slate-colored nose leather and paw pads; and lilac point, a glacial white body with frosty pinky-gray points and lavender-pink nose leather and paw pads.

I accidentally discovered today my cat is a snowshoe 😂
Me too 😭😅😅
Me too and she's crazy
I did too, and have no idea what kind of kittens will they have lol
Today was my day! I was told half Siamese half Persian. I love my Frankie so much that I think I’m gonna make a point to always have a shoeshoe
Me too 😌
“When you pick her up, you may be surprised at how substantial she feels.”
‘Substantial’ is the best way I’ve ever heard anyone say their cat is CHONKY.
I found out about the snowshoe breed today and I’m now obsessed! Personality and looks it’s everything I look for in a cat!
I've got one and, boy, does he have a personality
I accidentally got one 11 years ago, when she was a kitten. My friends cat had a litter, and her (all white at the time), and her all black brother were the only ones left. I picked her, and I'm so glad I did! She's the best and has such a unique, silly personality.
Didn't find out she was a Snowshoe until I started to do some digging when she was about 2 or 3.
@E1ated Worlds awwh! I'm glad you adopted her, too. 🥺💙
I rescued my Snowshoe. He is a dedicated companion. You will not go wrong with a Showshoe cat.
i have a snowshoe mix and she is the sweetest cat i’ve ever met. she loves to snuggle and is always incredibly gentle
I'm getting my snowshoe siamese on the 28th and I'm researching everything I could about it! they are so adorable!
I was told by a vet that I had a Siamese/Calico mix. After learning about snowshoe I believe she fits this description more.
Could she be a calico point? Or tortishell point siamese?
I grew up with Siamese cats I loved; as an adult, the first cat that was all mine was a Snowshoe. He was the best, and lived a long life... almost 18 years. I love and miss him still, after all these years. I have other wonderful kitties in my life; but my darling Snowshoe remains in my heart!
I have a snowshoe named Oso (Bear) and he's so cool. He's already 10 years old and he's not my fattest cat, but he's got a strong build, and he walks with a kind of alpha male swagger... But then he's so tender with his brother and mom and with us. He loves being pet and insists on posing showing his belly in impossible ways and he even caresses my face with his paw beans looking me in the eye and whenever he doesn't see me he goes upstairs to cry in front of my bedroom door.
I miss my Snowshoe. He would also cry at the front door demanding to come inside. Once inside he goes strait to his bed.
I have 2 snowshoes that wandered into the yard and eventually became pets. They're beautiful and sweet cats.❤
I have a ragdoll and 2 Lynx-Pointe Siamese. They are amazing.
I bet they're beautiful! I have a six year old Snowshoe. She is so pretty. I love her so much!
The whole time I thought I had a Siamese cat breed until I came across a TikTok that compared the two and oh do I now have snowshoe cat!
Lol I have a snowshoe cat and he’s amazing and I love him and he snuggles with me every minute, his name is bandit and he has striking deep blue eyes,
Extremely helpful and good humor. Thank you. You answered my question of if my brother's is a siamese or snowshoe. Didnt know there was a snowshoe breed until yesterday. Lol
Glad to help!
One snowshoe wondered into my yard I have 2 cats and live behind a bike trail so maybe she was abandoned there and followed my cats she looked like a month old but she was fierce with humans over the weeks we lured her with games and took her to the vet and adopted her, she is the sweetest cat ever and a great companion.
mines got a tabby markings mixed with snowshoe markings and he's very white but has some snowshoe brown a lil his tabby genes took over his snowshoes genes
I have a Snowshoe cat. She's beautiful, and she's six years old. Her name is Momo. She has ice blue eyes.
Aweee I have a snowshoe she's the sweetest ❤️
I own two snowshoes in my opinion they are the best breed ever!
my snowshoes she probably the quietest cat I've ever had, she doesn't talk but she is very generous with other cats. shell let her sisters eat their food first then she'll have hers. She's a little grumpy but she so affectionate, she doesn't like to be bothered or touch and shell come to me when she wants to. She is 7 now and she still as grumpy as ever lol
That exactly reminds me of my Snowshoe, I miss him so much. Hope your Snowshoe has a long life.
My snowshoe talks a lot
Georgious Kitty's 🐈🐾❤️❤️❤️
There's one of these gorgeous cats at a house near where I live, and I call it Oreo.
My girl, Tara, is a seal point that is almost the quintessential Snowshoe. The only thing that would mark her down is that the white on her back legs goes up about ⅔ of the way. But I bought her off a lady for $30 with no papers so we won't be doing any shows. Boy she is stunningly beautiful but with weird neurological quirks that I would classify as being very autistic in behavior. Most cats act somewhat neurodivergent but she has some issues. 😅💕🌈
My Cat is Snowshoe too . He is very sweet & so cute!!! 😍
I’m just here cause I love my snowshoe cat just a rare beautiful being it’s like owning a Siberian tiger lol
For the first time, I know my cat has a snowshoe 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I have both 😻
i have both
The dominos I used to work at had a bunch of stray cats living in the sewers right night to it and I ended up taking this little tuxedo cat home. She ended up having kittens a few weeks later having not one but 3 snowshoe kittens! I believe the kittens father must have also been a snowshoe for this to happen, still to this day wondering why someone would let such an expensive cat wind up in the sewers.
The father doesn't necessarily have to be a Snowshoe since the traits are passed on by recessive genes. That's what makes breeding them so difficult.
jesus, the narrator sounds like american psycho patrick bateman describing the "perfect cat".
Beautiful cat.. that's same as with my neighbour cat..
I have a snowshoe named Odin (but me and my family calls him King) I love him like he's my genuine son.
Ironically, i didnt find or buy my cat. My moms cat gave birth to him. She was NOT a siamese. She was a black cat, which is why we got confused when we got a pure white baby kitten. Then we got MORE confused when his fur became darker
He's very clingy and cuddly. He likes to bonk my head whenever I get home from school and keeps me up until 3 am.
i have a mixed snowshoe and siamese:)
Snowshoe is practically Siamese mix with white gene...
Same!! 😻
Our shoeshoe, Quincy, is a cat that makes ppl obey her meows
My snowshoe cat is active and i like this breed
I have a snowshoe siamese!
Same
Me too!
@@AllergicToAshAndDust We should start a gang.
@@AllergicToAshAndDust We'll take over the world!
I have a snowshoe, she's sooooo cute
Our quincy is too cute for a kitty.
i have have a beautiful siamese her nose is brown on two sides and then the middle is pink i love the unique look
This is an awesome video thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Help me figure out my cat’s breed! She has black nose, ears and tail but her feet are white with a lil bit of black points not like how siamese cats who has full black socks! Is my cat a siamese snowshoe mix? 😿
It would be more helpful if people could see a picture of your cat.
If it has a strong build it’s a snowshoe, if it has a lean or skinny build it’s a Siamese, I believe your cat is a snowshoe but maybe ther was a flaw in her muzzle color because a complete snowshoe color is a ressive gene
My snowshoe is smart but so mischievous bro. When light reflects off her eyes they look red 💀 we call her monster (playfully) since she is always being a little monster.
Love my 2 snowies
I'm kind of wondering if I have a snowshoe. 😳 He doesn't look like he weighs as much as he does, but he is DENSE.
My cat is a snowshoe but hes lazy
Legit snowshoe🥰
Yes
so my cat is a snowshoe cat i've been lied to
Gotta do your homework. Where did you get it?
I have one!....its also have young kitten snowshoe...but its absurd...the kitten die 4 yrs ago...
Left only the mom kitty...

This is anecdotal but i would never leave my snowshoe in a room with a child.
this is sooo confusing for someone who isnt the smartest this seems to complicated to understand
