Adult, spayed, female, domestic shorthair, white. Snowball was picked up as a stray with no microchip by Animal Control and obviously was on her own for a little while by the condition of her matted fur. Snowball was given a clean bill of health from the veterinarian and is now at the shelter. She was a bit sassy at first and tolerated short periods of brushing while getting the mattes under control. Now that her gorgeous white fur is matte free, and is getting lots of attention and playtime from the volunteers, we find that her attitude has softened greatly and she seems much happier. Snowball’s favorite activities are enjoying her Fancy Feast pate at breakfast and dinner, fiercely trying to conquer the elusive red dot of the laser toy and long cat naps in her favorite plush bed. Snowball loves gentle petting but not being picked up or cuddled. Snowball is not at all fond of other cats and prefers a quiet surrounding so we are looking for an adult home with no other pets for this very special kitty.
