This is Sissy, she is Mikey’s sister, his actual litter mate. She is such a sweet cat but she is scared of her own shadow. I have six cats and Sissy is at the bottom of the hierarchy around here even though she and Mikey are the oldest in the house (they just turned 8) and have been here the longest. Needless to say she spends much of her time hiding behind me, I am the equalizer.

I think it mostly stems from Mikey’s younger days before he was neutered, he was quite aggressive towards other cats including Sissy. That sort of set the stage for her and though all my animals are spayed and neutered now, Sissy doesn’t trust this at all.
She is a wonderful cat though, I have enjoyed her immensely. Sissy sleeps on my pillow at night and during the day she is my conversationalist, if you talk back to her, it’s on, she will keep the conversation going as long as you do.
