Empress Sissy - Domestic Long Hair Cat for Adoption in Reisterstown, Maryland

Meet Empress Sissy: Her Royal Shyness

Like her historic namesake, Empress Sisi, our Empress Sissy is a celebrated beauty with magnificent hair, an independent spirit, and little enthusiasm for noisy court life.

At just 6 months old, Sissy is a gorgeous medium-to-long-haired tabby. She was rescued alongside a group of kittens as a terrified, hissy little mess, but with patience and kindness, she has blossomed into a sweet girl who loves gentle pets, luxurious brushing sessions, and-naturally-being served Churu.

Although reserved at first, Sissy abandons all royal decorum when playtime begins. She enthusiastically chases balls, pounces on strings, and goes wild for little toys that skitter across the floor. Afterward, she prefers to retreat to a peaceful sanctuary and recharge her royal batteries.

Sissy is a true introvert who finds loud noises and chaos overwhelming. She needs a calm, adult-only home with a quiet safe zone where she can relax and settle in at her own pace. She may do well with an easygoing cat who will respect her boundaries, although this has not yet been thoroughly tested.

If your home is peaceful, your brushes are ready, and your Churu supply is plentiful, Empress Sissy may be ready to grace your kingdom.
