Snowy is our new 5 month old kitten. She is a chocolate point Birman, a breed known for their silky coats and white paws, but most especially their loud purrs and affectionate natures. Snowy is a sweet, albeit somewhat naughty, kitten who has certainly livened up the house. We are having lots of fun with her and watching her quirky personality emerge. One of our favorite things about her (a Birman trait) is that she purrs when she is picked up and flops on our feet.
