Because of their short, low-maintenance coat, grooming is simple. A weekly brushing keeps their fur sleek.
Their affectionate nature means they don’t like being left alone for long periods, so make sure they have stimulation if you’re away. Many Snowshoes benefit from interaction with other breeds or even time outside in a secure enclosure for fresh air.
As with most cats, a high-quality diet and clear feeding guidelines are essential. Regular vet checkups will ensure your Snowshoe remains healthy.
While they’re a healthy breed overall, like their Siamese ancestors, they can occasionally experience issues similar to those in Siamese kittens and American Shorthair breeds.
