What Is A Snowbob?
Most people believe that the Snowbob is a breed of it's own...and this is not the case. The Snowbob is the only color registry. This means that the bobtail breeds that produce kittens in the snow color range can duel register the kitten in their main existing breed and again as a Snowbob. That is why you will see Snowbob's in a litter with non-snow colored kittens. This also gives the Snowbob's a lot of diversity when wanting to breed for a all Snowbob litter.
As the registry grows so does the snow mutation gene, giving us more snow colors than there was in the past. What the future holds for this color breed is always exciting, never knowing what shades of snows will be possible. In the future the Snowbob may become a breed of it own, as more and more breeders breed for all Snowbob litters, or it just may stay a color breed.

Does the coat color change with age?
Yes the colors on the snows can change drastically for some, please view the gallery page to view a Progression of Coloration from kitten to adults, at the bottom of the page. With some snows that get so intensely colored, some find it very hard to believe that they are truly snows but a good rule of thumb if in question is to breed to another snow and if all kittens produced are snows then chances are it is a snow. A very good example is Jessie in the Progression of Coloration.
