Snowball is a silver dilute Persian girl. She was taken in by Strawberry along with her mum, but was not receiving enough milk from her mum, so she was one of the tiniest kittens.

At Strawberry, she has been fed on kitten food and developed a major appetite, often getting food all over herself! She is a little live-wire who frequently falls asleep on humans who are cuddling her. She is so loving and playful (but not manically so) and very very special.

Snowball loves her fellow kittens and lived with a dog at the breeder that she came from.

She has put on so much weight in foster and is now neutered, wormed, flea’d, vaccinated and microchipped.

Adopters must have another playful cat or adopt her with another kitten – we do not let kittens go to homes where they will be without a feline playmate.

Adoption fee £650, which will help towards saving the rescue – we take in an endless stream of cats (with no donation from those giving them up), often with complex needs, such as eye problems requiring surgery etc. Kittens like little Snowball are helping to keep us going and being able to help. Please adopt from a rescue to keep us helping as many as we can! We are normal people volunteering and letting cats stay in the spare rooms of our homes, but vet costs, food, litter etc. have to be covered – as they are insane!

Located in West Midlands foster.

Before applying for a Strawberry cat please read the following:

1. Unless otherwise stated, our cats are strictly indoor-only. This means that windows/doors cannot be left open in any room to which the cat has access. A cat cannot be trained to be indoor-only – it must be supervised. All members of the house must be in agreement and understand about keeping doors and windows closed. We are happy to re-home to a flat but, likewise, this means windows closed and no balcony access, unless the balcony is totally cat-proofed (netting all the way), same is true for roof terraces, so that they cannot drop to their death.
2. Unless otherwise stated, we do not re-home to households with children under 8 years old. If there is nothing stated to contrary, assume the cat cannot go to a home with any children under eight. For other cats, please also bear in mind that some cats may also be found to be unsuitable, even for children over 8. WE DO NOT HOME WITH PEOPLE PLANNING CHILDREN, AS SO MANY CATS ARE GIVEN UP JUST BECAUSE CHILDREN ARRIVE OR CATS DEVELOP BEHAVIOURAL ISSUES AFTER BABIES ARRIVE.
3. It is a requirement of our adoption policy that lifetime insurance is obtained and maintained for every cat adopted. We provide 5 weeks’ free insurance with every adoption, but the original policy may not suit you, and as we are not financial advisors, you should seek out the best and appropriate insurance to suit your own needs.
4. Most cats are in Greater London, Essex or Worcestershire (an hour from Birmingham), with some fostered further afield like Durham at times. See each listing for details – if not detailed it will be Greater London, London or Worcs. Cats cannot be adopted by public transport – you must be able to collect by car or get a taxi home from fosterer’s home (many get a lift or get a taxi home with cat and things).
