Snowball (a fictional character in the television series The Simpsons) was the Simpsons' pet cat, replaced by Snowball II after her death. Snowball was, according to Lisa in a poem, run over by a Chrysler. At a later point it emerged that Snowball was run over by Clovis Quimby, drunkard brother of mayor Quimby (in a parody of what could be any of the Kennedy brothers or even Billy Carter). Snowball was so-named due to her white color. Snowball has been seen in heaven by characters who have undergone near-death experiences.
Snowball in Poetry
- Meditations on Turning Eight
- by Lisa Simpson
- I had a cat named Snowball
- She died! She died!
- Mom said she was sleeping
- She lied! She lied!
- Why oh why is my cat dead?
- Couldn't that Chrysler hit me instead?
