The '''Hissi''' is a snake-like [[Neopet]] with wings, likely based on the [[Wikipedia:Aztec|Aztec]] serpent god [[Wikipedia:Quetzalcoatl|Quetzalcoatl]]. It was released May 4, 2005. Hissi have acute vision and a keen sense of smell which makes them extremely good at games of hide and seek.

The '''Hissi''' (from ''hiss'', [[wikipedia:onomatopoeia|onomatopoeia]] for the noise a snake makes) is a [[wikipedia:snake|snake]]-like [[Limited Edition]] [[Neopet]] released on 4 May 2005. It has wings, like an [[wikipedia:amphiptere|amphiptere]] or the [[Wikipedia:Aztec|Aztec]] serpent god [[Wikipedia:Quetzalcoatl|Quetzalcoatl]]. They have acute vision and a keen sense of smell which makes them extremely good at games of hide and seek.  
Users had been wanting a snake-like Neopet for a long time, and were happy to see the Hissi created. It is generally considered to be a fairly good pet, with nice artwork for the standard colours. Since most of the Neopets are made to look "cute," there is a large group of players who celebrate every time Neopets releases a non-cuddly pet.


A limited number are available for creation every ''Hissi Day''. An existing Neopet can be turned into a Hissi by a [[Transmogrification Potion]], [[Morphing Potion]] or by certain zaps the [[Lab Ray]]. The [[Ice]] Hissi is reminiscent of the [[Snowager]], and the [[Spotted]] Hissi is reminiscent of a real life snake like a ''[[wikipedia:Boa constrictor|Boa constrictor]]''. In the [[Neopets Trading Card Game]], they are associated with the element of darkness.  
Because they are [[Limited Edition]], not very many are created. A limited number are available for creation every ''Hissi Day''. They can also be created from an existing pet with a Hissi [[Transmogrification Potion]], [[Morphing Potion]] or by a species-changing zap from the [[Lab Ray]].
