About Hissarina

Meet Hissarina! This affectionate 4-year-old cat is feeling the pressure of the shelter environment. Initially sweet and handleable, she has shown some signs of stress since arriving. Although she enjoys social moments and seeks attention, Hissarina can quickly become overstimulated. When she needs her space, she communicates by swaying away or hissing. She would thrive in a calm, quiet home where she can decompress, gradually build trust, and have her boundaries respected. With a bit of patience, Hissarina's affectionate personality can shine again. Ready to make a difference in Hissarina's life? Apply to adopt!
