Thanks, MissJoeyDFW! He is indeed a handsome guy., but I am not sure whether or not he has any Snowshoe in him. He is predominantly Siamese with (clearly) some tabby genes. Purebreds with this type of coloring are called Lynxpoint Siamese.

Marino was adopted from the local animal shelter exactly 6 years ago today. Needless to say, it was love at first sight. His sister (whom I also tried, unsuccessfully, to adopt) was all Siamese markings with no stripes.

Here is a picture that shows his handsome face and more of the striped markings:
