Contents

[edit] First Appearance

She first appeared in "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire", where it is explained that Snowball I had died the previous year and they had gotten Snowball II. Neither Snowball I or II were seen or mentioned in the Tracey Ullman Shorts. Her name is slightly ironic because she is black unlike the original Snowball or an actual snowball that is white.

[edit] Relationship with Santa's Little Helper

Snowball II and Santa's Little Helper have always been shown as having a good relationship; usually they are seen sleeping near each other. In the "Fly Vs. Fly" segment of "Treehouse of Horror VIII", Santa's Little Helper chases Snowball II into a transport device and their DNA gets mixed. Two different animals emerge: Santa's Little Helper emerged with both pets' heads (similar to CatDog), Snowball II with their rear ends.

[edit] Love Life

Snowball II also found a love interest in Scratchy in the "Terror of Tiny Toon" segment of "Treehouse of Horror IX".

[edit] Supporting Roles

Her largest role was in the fourteenth season episode "Old Yeller Belly", in which Snowball II saves Homer from a burning treehouse built by the Amish after Santa's Little Helper runs away. She also had minor roles in "Bart Gets an Elephant", where she tries to get attention; in "Two Dozen and One Greyhounds", in which she is scared by the many puppies; and in Make Room for Lisa, in which Lisa has a hallucination in which she becomes Snowball II.

[edit] Death

In "I, D'oh-Bot", Snowball II was hit and killed by Dr. Hibbert's Mercedes-Benz G500. After numerous fleeting replacements for Snowball II, the fifth (and last surviving) Snowball was named Snowball II to avoid future confusion and having to spend more money on a new bowl.
