my gay ships(all of my ships are gay ships
aaaaaa you ship speckles and snowball too aaaaa! they are so cute together! since speckles is lonely and probably shy too and mellow snowball is kind and friendly without being overwhelming or hyper, the two of them work so well!
yeah i love this pair very much!! in my headcanon they’re both originally stray cats(orphans). in the character book speckles is said to be “adopted by a (buddism) temple”, which may imply that they’re originally a stray cat and was found and took care by monks or sth. in another official book of neko atsume, there’s a line written in first person perspective of a cat which mention they’re a stray cat and don’t remember who their mom is. and that page gets a illustration of snowball. but since it’s not the chara book they may probably just pick up a random illustrantion for that page, whether snowball was actually a stray cat isn’t officially confirmed. but i headcanon that way anyway. and obviously from what you can see on character book, snowball is currently not a stray cat. they’re kept by somebody.
so this is how i started consider this ship. assumed that they’re both stray cat at first. it’s interesting that they develop their personalities in quite different ways. i think that speckles’s personality is lonely is driven directly from the fact they were a stray cat. they might lack of love and proper care when they were a kitten. they may also feel themself inferior due to that and have self-doubt problem. and then they met snowball, a nice, calm and friendly cat. later on also learnt that they’re primarily also a stray cat. despite that snowball doesn’t worry about the past that much. instead they’re able to appreciate and enjoy what they have now. being with snowball and learning things from them speckles may gradually be able to rethink about themself and maybe regain self confidence one day too. this is how i view them as a pair. not only snowball give speckles love and care they will also help speckles to grow and get stronger in heart and get over the insecure feeling.
