The Isle of Misfits

The Isle of Misfits is a 5 acre farm that is home to nearly 30 misfit animals.

We’re not a rescue, and I’m not a veterinary professional—just a weirdo that loves animals. 🐾💜 Welcome to the community, and don’t forget to ! We are not open for farm tours, weddings, or events at this time due to COVID-19, but keep an eye on our events tab to be notified of our local pop-up events!

Thank you FOX 13's Jennifer Epstein and FOX 13 News for shining a light on my babies and their resilient and joyful spirit! 💜

Greetings from my post-rescue life! Closing the rescue a few years ago was bittersweet at the time, but I become more convinced every day that it was the right decision.

I couldn’t dwell in the grief of losing Ninja and Richard any longer, so I made some changes to the tiny house village. Richard’s house now acts as a plant nursery and air conditioned pen for the pups when I’m outside doing yard work. The dogs have permanently moved back into my house with me, and their dog house is now an art studio. The sh*tzus love to follow me out there and sleep at my feet while I paint.

I’ve been able to work full time outside the farm again, and I found a job working with seniors that I absolutely love.

Travel, art, music and gardening have become a way of life, and I finally have time to spend with my favorite people in the world. I’m so grateful, and I hope all is well with all of you out there. 💜

I’m convinced that mothers are the glue holding society together. I know I’d be nothing without my momma. Happy Mother’s Day to ALL the mothers and those in mothering roles everywhere. This world would fall apart without your love. 💜

Yesterday was a first for me! I got to visit and fit two very special goats for new sets of wheels! The goat pictured here is Axle—he was my little buddy for the day even though he doesn’t need a wheelchair. I did, however fit his two adorable buddies, Elvis and Daisy, for two new carts. When Elvis’s new cart arrives I’ll be venturing back out to Ladybug Farm to grab some footage of him zooming around their beautiful property!

I also had the honor of meeting Kris, the founder of Ladybug Farm. Kris and her staff work tirelessly to give an amazing quality of life to the animals in their care. They frequently take on animals with special medical needs which makes them even more dear to my heart. Ladybug Farm Sanctuary is a 501c3 nonprofit sanctuary in Odessa Florida, and they could really use any donations you could spare. If you could go give them a follow and show them some support I would really love that. Thank you Kris for all you’ve done and continue to do for so many. Thank you for inviting me to your sanctuary and allowing me to work with your amazing animals. God bless you. 💜

I just signed Rocky and Charlie up for this fun event at Dog Bar St. Pete supporting our good friends Limbo Chihuahuas!

Rocky and Charlie are both Limbo alums and we appreciate all they do for the community! I’ll put the link to register in the comments.

Sh*tzu or porcupine? We’ve had a lot of hawks flying over the farm lately, so the small dogs have been wearing their when they’re playing outside.

This is NOT a sponsored post—I bought these for the littles a few years ago when we moved to the farm. I noticed that we often had birds of prey flying overhead and I was terrified one the pups would get snatched. I still supervise them closely when they’re outside, but I feel a lot better having extra protection against predators. I don’t recommend dog parks for a lot of reasons, but if your pup visits them, coyote vests come in handy there as well. The spiked collar can help deter bites to the neck, plus it makes your pup look extra badass. 😉

Stacy and Darcy are getting a haircut this week, but I needed to keep their bangs out of their eyes in the meantime. I present to you: sh*tzus with topknots. 💅🌸✨

Celine had to get an e***a yesterday, so she’s spent the last 24 hours beached on the couch, watching horror movies with Daddeh, and generally rethinking every life decision she’s ever made up to this point.

Apparently she and Walter Croncat got into some mischief in the tiny house the other night. I don’t know how a dwarf kitten and a three legged cat managed to pull an entire bag of kibble out of an eight foot loft, but they did. And they ate the WHOLE. THING. Walt was fine, but Celine got more clogged up than a chimney after a blizzard, so I had to run her to .nextdoor to get everything flowing again. Shoutout to Dr. Melissa and staff for saving Celine from her own gluttony.

Queen Celine is back to her usual shenanigans and tomfoolery today so I think she is feeling much better now. I know I’m feeling much better now that the whole internet knows about my cat’s bowel habits. Have a good day everyone 💜😹

My Valentine took this picture of Stacy and I in our matching hoodies because we look “snazzy.”

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone. 💜

Thank you so much to “JM” and “MH” for sending these goodies from our Amazon wishlist! I’m so grateful!! 💜

Looks like we have another storm coming our way next weeks friends 😭

If anyone wants to send supplies from our Amazon wishlist to help us get ready, it would be appreciated more than you know. My amazon wish list is below, so everything will ship directly to the farm.

During a storm, our most-needed items are dog/cat food, water, trash bags, paper towels, and cat litter.

Thanks friends! Everyone stay safe out there! 💜

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated wheels to me in the last few months! Charlie and I are fitting a very special pup with a new set today, and we couldn’t do it without the support of our local community! 💜 If you are a rescue organization, feel free to message me and I’ll show you how to set up a Misfit Wheels Program in your area! If you’re local to Tampa Bay, I can even hold a brief class for your organization free of charge!
