Happy first birthday to Wisp, Tampa's icky stinky TikTok-famous queen

Happy fur-st birthday to Tampa's own icky, stinky queen !

• By that we mean Wisp, the Persian kitty with thousands of fans around the world, thanks to local animal rescue Rags to Riches' wildly popular TikTok videos chronicling her life.

State of play: In just a year, Crispy Wispy has published a children's book (with a second on the way ); inspired a calendar, stuffed animal and so much fan art ; and helped bring attention, and money , to the rescue's other critters on the hunt for their furever homes.

• After struggling with health issues, she's pooping on her own and gaining weight, per a health update in April .

The bottom line: She may look more like a cat these days, but she'll always be a scrungly used tissue in our hearts.
