Flipper the Fussy Kitty

How do cats have facial expressions without having facial expressions? This one has that mastered! Look at that side eye glare. 😂 (Last pic)

Say hello to Lannie! She's approximately 1-2 yrs of age & up for adoption in southern Louisiana. She's Spayed & vaccinated. Adoption fee applies and willing to transport within a 2 hour drive.

Please contact me via PM if you'd like to know her back story and find out what kind of kitty personality she might bring to your home. 🥰😁

Pics posted in chronicle order so, Im sure you can see she's put on quite a bit of weight! I might have to put her on a little diet before she can't clean her own butt.

Well, hello my Flipper the Fussy Kitty fam! Once again, me being consistent with posting updates of Flipper and our wild ride through life is a rare as a sea turtle spotted in the 🏜 desert, but here we go. But, anyway, Flipper and her kitty pose (Bates & Nala) wish to send you all positive vibes and hoping your week has been going well & send y'all all their love!

Can y'all believe this crazy girl is 11 yrs young now?! Time flies way too fast & since Moko disappeared a yr ago, I think about how little time I may have with my girl now. I have to remember to make every moment I have with them all count in every way possible.

Life has been a struggle for a few years now & being pulled back into rescue unplanned has definitely added stress, anxiety and financial struggles that have come close to disasters a couple of times, but one way or the other, things have managed to work out somehow.
I don't remember if I posted here about a kitten being dumped in my yard a few months ago as I watched them toss her tiny body out of the window like trash in horror, but if I didn't, then yes...this happened.
I named her Bailey (last pics of tabby and white kitten) and she's done wonderfully as she's learned to trust again (seemingly only me, though). I'm now trying to pull the money together to get her and another foster of mine spayed along with a Momma and her four kittens & the tasks seem daunting after all of my own personal funds have been invested in TNR work throughout the past year.
Flipper is also due to have her teeth cleaning appointment. We're actually like 5 months behind on that right now and I seriously don't want to let that go for too much longer. As anyone that's been faithful followers knows, I don't come on here asking for financial assistance with TNR expenses or anything else, for that matter. But, as of now, income being the lowest in years & ridiculously high prices for everything, I'm beginning to no longer find joy in much. The last thing needed in our lives is me struggling to care for my cats and fosters.

So, I hang my head in shame and humbly ask if you can spare anything, I'd be extremely appreciative and indebted to you for life for helping me stay afloat in my passion to help improve the lives of as many cats & kittens as I possibly can and hopefully be someone impactful in curbing these pregnancies leading to kittens and their parents die horrible deaths alone and homeless.
No amount is too little. Even $1 can go a long way so if you would like to help me help these fur babies along with helping get Flipper get to her dental check up and cleaning sooner rather than later, please know your donations will not only help these guys have their needs met but will also help anchor me in sanity for a little more time.
Also, don't feel bad if you're unable to donate! No judgement, fam! I'm broke too! 😂 But, a quick share can be just as helpful!

Below are my handles for my PayPal & Venmo accounts:

Again, thank you for any assistance possible, even if it's a simple share. We all love you and Flipper says thank you too!!😻

**READY FOR ADOPTION IN 2-3 WEEKS**
*NEW IBERIA, LA-WILLING TO TRANSPORT IF ADOPTION IS FITTING*
*please share with anyone near southern Louisiana*

Flipper the Fussy Kitty here asking y'all to please share for us?! These two are full of energy and interrupting my beauty rest, dangit!
I need my beauty rest! 😼

Say hello to Maverick and Susie Q!

Let me begin this with saying you might find this post different from the "please adopt" post you usually see and for good reasons. I often see new adoptions posted up as "Lost" sometimes as soon as a couple weeks after their adoption. I also don't want them to go to someone that might toss them outside for behavioral issues if it ever arises.

I'm not a rescue and haven't accepted donation for any of this. No one has helped me socialize these babies. So, if you find this post blunt, it is. I will have higher stipulations for their adoption than shelters and rescues which will not only be an adoption fee & vet reference but there is a mandatory quiz in cat behavior to complete (will be posted in the comments shortly) and mandatory home check.
These two are the perfect addition to your family if you've been searching for awhile and just couldn't find "the one" yet. Well, Susie Q & Maverick might just be "the ones" for you!
It's best they are adopted together as they are very bonded. These babies were rescued with their Mom from a life on the streets and living in a trash bin. They haven't been the easiest to socialize and will need patient adopters that not only say they understand but ACTUALLY understand that if they take a week or two (even a month) to come out from under your bed doesn't mean you give up on them.
It means you place food and water for them and a litter box next to the the bed so they don't feel It means you spend time in the room with them while talking on the phone or to them so they get used to your voice. It means you have empathy and earn their trust.

Once they trust you, they are so full of love and have adorable personalities! Maverick is more apprehensive and will sit back while watching his sister to check things out first. I don't know if that's a "ladies first" move or "hey, go check it out" move to test the area/object for possible traps. But Susie is quick to have her interests perked once her curiosity trumps her fear.
They are both incredibly cute and love to snuggle. Might be a good idea to have cat trees and toys as these two will run around the house for hours at times. More things they have of theirs the less likely they will knock your things off side tables and climb your curtains!

If you live within driving distance and interested in giving these two the FUREVER HOME they deserve, go ahead and send a private message to us!

Here is a much needed update into the glorious life of Flipper and her minions!
Flipper, as always believes herself to be in charge and she has no tolerance for hyperactivity from the younger ones.
I had to explain to her that Bates and Nala will grow out of it but that wasn't satisfactory. I then realized something! My baby girl is apparently 9 years old now!!! Where did the time go??
So, I agreed that their shenanigans will stay outside the sanctity of her room(our bedroom).
Flipper begrudgingly agreed. 😾😂

My name is Moko. I am described as a male Manx....

Can you accept my invitation so I can get free gifts worth up to $80? 🎁

Please share and anyone who can donate, please do! He's scheduled for surgery on the 5th and they have only gotten one donation of $15!

Well, we have some sad news. Flipper's brother, Moko got out on my mother the evening of Aug. 8th and haven't been able to find him. I've searched hi and low. Every shelter & rescue within a 200 mile radius, posted on every lost and found pets platform known to man, posted on social media and even apps like neighbors along with posting flyers everywhere.
I can't allow myself to give up on him so I'm still on the search daily and contacting anyone with a new intake not in driving distance to see if it's possibly my little buddy.
He turned 14 on the 5th of this month and it breaks my heart that he probably won't or didn't live out the rest of his life with me and in the comfort of his own home. He's been through a lot with me in those 14 years and has been there for me when I had no one else.

Unfortunately, a lot of cats have disappeared around here and I truly fear it's due to sightings of coyotes recently in the area. I'm just hoping I find him one day soon waiting for me to come scoop him up.

About a week ago while posting his missing posts on groups again, someone messaged me and said they had a 3 month old kitten that had to go and she couldn't get anyone to take him in. In other words, he was about to go to the local kill shelter if she didn't find someone in 3 days. He was the last of her female cats litter and didn't want to keep him.
After talking it over with my fiancé we decided that if Moko is gone, he'd want me to help out a kitty in need. He was always so wonderful and loving to the fosters I've had in the past. He has a heart of gold.

Sooooooo, everyone say hello and help us welcome Bates Royal to our family! Flipper is coming around a little now to him but making sure to let him know that she needs her Mom time too and is determined that she gets in her human cuddles as always. 😸
If y'all know anything about Bombay cats, you know they are one human cats and can be very possessive and needy. Well, my little girl definitely fits the stereotypes of Bombays. 🥰😂 She'll adjust in time and I'm making sure she gets extra love and cuddles to let her know that no one can take her place.

Here's some updated pics of Flipper and her new brother, Bates!

I have reached 2.5K followers! Thank you for your continued support. I could not have done it without each of you. 🙏🤗🎉

We are absolutely horrible about updating my little girl's page! Just to let everybody know Ms. Flipper is happier than ever and more in control of the household as she's aged gracefully and learned new ways to keep her humans in line. 😹😸
This is Flipper taking over the bed as always tonight. 😏
