Which cat breed is right for you?
The Snowshoe was developed in the 1960s in Philadelphia by crossing Siamese cats with American Shorthairs, creating a pointed cat with distinctive white "boots" on all four paws. This medium-sized breed weighs 7–12 pounds and combines the Siamese's colorpoint pattern with a more robust, moderately stocky build. Their short, smooth coat comes in seal point and blue point, always featuring white paws, an inverted white "V" on the face, and striking blue eyes.
Snowshoes are vocal, social cats that inherit the Siamese's love of conversation but with a softer, more melodic voice. They are playful and intelligent, often learning to open doors and turn on faucets — many Snowshoes are fascinated by running water. They bond closely with their families and can become distressed if left alone for long periods.

The Ukrainian Levkoy is a distinctive and very rare breed created in Ukraine in 2004 by crossing Donskoy (Don Sphynx) cats with Scottish Folds. The result is a hairless or nearly hairless cat with unique inward-folding ears that curl gently forward like a levkoy (wallflower) petal — giving the breed its name. Weighing 7–12 pounds, this medium-sized cat has an angular, dog-like face with prominent cheekbones, almond-shaped eyes, and soft, elastic, wrinkled skin that ranges from completely bald to a fine velour covering.
Ukrainian Levkoys are gentle, social cats that form strong attachments to their families and enjoy being handled and cuddled. They are intelligent and playful without being hyperactive, content to alternate between interactive play sessions and long naps in warm spots. Friendly with children and other pets, they are adaptable and easygoing in most household environments.
