POSTS STORIES REELS

Frizzle has been missing for 43 days, and 37,000 strangers are still looking for her.

When I look at Frizzle, I see Scout. If I were in Josh’s shoes, I know I’d do anything to find my baby too. You may have seen her in my stories, but I want to do more to help.

On the night of September 20th, an adventure cat named Frizzle disappeared from her campsite at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. Since then, her human Josh has combed miles of desert on foot and by drone. Trail cams and feeding stations have been set up, and there’s been no sign of predators. He believes someone picked her up, thinking she’d been abandoned. And because the flats are a tourist destination, she could be anywhere by now.

More than 37,000 strangers have come together to help find her, whether by searching the flats, posting flyers, sharing her story, or donating, all for a cat most of us have never met.

Now Frizzle’s army is trying to reach people who aren’t on social media. The plan: Taylor Swift lent a pair of boots to a friend, @ally_zacovic, in high school. If Taylor authenticates the boots, they’ll be auctioned off. Some of the funds will help the search, and the rest will go to a cat rescue called Kai’s Place. Getting Taylor’s attention on this would also help us broadcast Frizzle to a larger audience.

If you or someone you know picked up or recently adopted a cat that looks like Frizzle, please contact @find.frizzle. There’s a $10,000 (limited time) reward for her return, and so much gratitude from a man desperate to find his best friend.

One share could reach the right person. Please repost and share this to your stories, and help us get @taylorswift’s attention.

Let’s bring Frizzle home. 🩵

TAYLOR SWIFT & TAYLOR NATION ❤️
@taylorswift @taylornation

If this reaches you, we have a pair of your boots we'd love to use to help find Frizzle and support a cat rescue crisis response unit in Arizona. Please watch video #6.

Frizzle still needs national coverage. I believe someone picked her up. Video #5 explains the evidence behind that belief.

FRIZZLE'S ARMY 🐾

Together, we've carried out what may be one of the largest search and rescue attempts for a missing pet in recorded history. We've MOVED MOUNTAINS for Frizzle.

We've uncovered clues suggesting someone may have taken her in. And because of YOU, I was able to buy a thermal drone and search places I never could have reached otherwise.

When I leave the flats this week, I'm passing that drone to Holly and Keith, who tragically crashed theirs while searching for Frizzle.

WHAT COMES NEXT FOR ME ❤️‍🩹

I lost my best friend. My adventure partner. My ride or die. And now I've lost the adventure in myself.

I've decided to leave life on the road and find a place to settle, possibly Salt Lake City or Arizona. I want to stay close to where Frizzle disappeared, but I also know this will be a sad boy winter. So the idea of being in the cold isn't growing on me yet.

I have to figure out how to build a life while she's still missing. Everything I've built until now feels like shifting sand.

Those who knew me before know how unlike me this is. But everything I am is being rewritten.

TO MY PEOPLE ❤️

You've been here from the beginning. Searching, maintaining feeding stations, providing cameras, drones and flyers, getting Frizzle on the local news, and holding me up when I couldn't do it alone. You've been angels.

And to EVERYONE sharing, posting, donating, searching and refusing to let Frizzle be forgotten: this spotlight belongs to you too. I wish I could name every single one of you. But here is a 2200 character limit and I'm reaching the end of it.

I'm leaving the flats, not giving up on Frizzle.

Thank you for moving mountains with me. ❤️

**CALL TO ACTION**
Please tag 1 local news station and 1 national news station

*HOW CAN YOU HELP**
Post about Frizzle, I'll reshare. Tag me and @find.frizzle

Full quality photos of her are in my bio on a Google photos album. They can be used for anything involving the search. Flyers, posters, shirts, social media posts. Anything to help. Please use her pictures! Please share about Frizzle. Please share your stories. What you've been through. How you handled these kinds of situations. How you relate. Let's be a community of support for each other ❤️‍🩹

**UPDATES**
I'm still not going to be on very much. I'm dealing with a lot of anxiety and sleeplessness. Erin and Leah will still be helping me out with messages and comments.

I'm heading back out to the flats to get more answers with the thermal drone. I'll be scanning the whole area for about a week.

If we can't get this story national by next week I will be playing our ace before Halloween so the message doesn't get drowned out by Halloween posts and the holidays to come.

Keep believing with me. Keep hoping with me. Keep praying for Frizzle. Let's bring her home. It's time.

Thank you for all of your support and everything y'all are doing to help me find my baby girl 🫂🥹

🔎 WHY I BELIEVE SOMEONE MAY HAVE PICKED UP FRIZZLE

After more than a month searching the Bonneville Salt Flats, I believe someone may have found Frizzle and mistaken her for an abandoned cat. Here's why.

📍 GEOGRAPHY: Our campsite was surrounded by exposed salt. To the east, there was no vegetation or shelter. The mountains to the west offered more habitat and prey, making them a more plausible direction for a land predator to approach from.

But the closest mountain base was 3.5 miles away. A predator coming from there would have crossed miles of open terrain, potentially passing other campers west of us.

🔊 THAT NIGHT: An EDM party was 2.2 miles northeast of us. Music carried across the flats, and vehicles were moving throughout the night. That activity may have discouraged some wildlife, although it couldn't rule out an encounter.

🐈 FRIZZLE'S HISTORY: I've tracked her movements for years. In five years of camping, she's never traveled more than half a mile from camp. Wandering several miles into exposed desert would be unlike her.

🦊 WILDLIFE: Our feeding stations had tuna, sardines, and cat food. Trail cameras recorded kit foxes, rabbits, and chipmunks—but no coyotes. We also haven't observed hawks, eagles, or owls during our searches. That doesn't prove predators weren't there; it means we have no confirmed evidence linking one to her disappearance.

🚁 SEARCHES: We've covered more than 100 miles of ground travel, searched with thermal drones beginning September 21, returned with additional drone teams, monitored cameras, and checked pipelines, canals, and the mountain base. We've found no confirmed trace of Frizzle or evidence of an attack.

🚗 MY THEORY: With so many people and vehicles on the flats that weekend, someone may have encountered Frizzle near camp—or at another campsite after she became disoriented—and taken her home believing they were helping.

I can't rule out every other possibility. But I can't ignore this one.

If you found a friendly, blue-eyed cat near Bonneville on September 19–20, please contact @find.frizzle. You may have rescued a cat who was never abandoned. ❤️

🐾🐈🎃OPERATION HALLOWEEN’S BOOTS IS LIVE!🎃🐈🐾

SWIFTIES AND FRIZZLE’S ARMY, WE NEED TO JOIN FORCES! 🗣️📢

Taylor Swift has a following of unfathomable proportions. Her voice could reach the ONE person who knows where Frizzle is.

We’ve turned the Bonneville Salt Flats upside down searching for her. We’ve covered miles of desert, flown thermal drones, and deployed trail cameras and feeding stations. And we’re still not stopping until I have peace with the area.

But we believe someone may have picked Frizzle up, thinking she was abandoned. They might have no idea she’s missing or that thousands of people are looking for her.

National coverage is the last major stone we have left unturned in getting her story out there. We desperately need to reach beyond this desert.

That’s where Ali comes in. ❤️

Ali went to high school with Taylor and has kept a pair of boots she says Taylor loaned her over 20 years ago on Halloween. She didn’t have to offer them to help Frizzle. But she chose to.

@taylorswift @taylornation, we’re not asking for money. We’re asking for help verifying and authenticating these boots.

We hope this story brings Frizzle national attention. If authenticated, Ali plans to auction the boots to help Kai’s Place build a cat rescue and emergency response unit in Phoenix, Arizona.

🚨 PLEASE HELP US:
❤️ Like and SHARE both our videos!
❤️ Watch Ali’s video for the full story behind the boots.
❤️ Visit the Facebook page linked in Ali’s Instagram bio to see the rescues she does.
❤️ Watch VIDEOS 1–6 for Frizzle’s full story, and explore my other posts to learn who she is and how far we’ve gone to find her.

Swifties, Frizzle’s Army, help us reach Taylor and bring Frizzle’s story to the nation!

TWO MISSIONS. ONE PAIR OF BOOTS. THOUSANDS OF LIVES. 🐾

#findFrizzle #TaylorSwift #Swifties #TaylorNation #SwiftiesForFrizzle by @find.frizzle

I’ve had these boots for 21 years.

I went to high school with Taylor Swift, like many of us in Hendersonville. Halloween 2005, before video phones 😂, I had a cowgirl costume but NO boots! I texted Taylor to borrow some. My dad drove the quarter mile from our house to hers, and she graciously lent me these.
I unintentionally never returned them.
We weren’t close friends. We shared a friend group, talked at school and on AIM (AOL Instant Messenger 😂), but rarely hung out or talked outside school.

Here’s what I want people to understand:

I’ve had these boots for 21 years. If I wanted personal gain, I would’ve tried something when she was at her peak. I didn’t. Money isn’t what matters to me. Animals are. My Facebook shows that.
I’d been talking with Josh for two weeks, searching for ANY way to help find Frizzle. Then it hit me… THE BOOTS.
I’m asking Taylor to authenticate them, hoping to bring national attention to Frizzle, so that if someone has her that does not have social media, this will reach them and she can be reunited with her soul person. Remaining proceeds would help Kai’s Place build a facility and dedicated emergency response unit—resources we don’t currently have.

But this isn’t just about Kai’s Place. We want to partner with local rescues, respond to their emergencies, and make our facility available for urgent cases. If enough is raised, we hope to create a shared assistance program for food, veterinary care, medical supplies, and vet transportation, with a request database and transparent financial tracking.

Once you’ve witnessed an animal’s suffering up close, you understand how desperately help is needed. Phoenix is in crisis. Animals are suffering and dying on our streets daily. Resources are exhausted. Every single rescue is beyond capacity.
No one is coming.
With your help, we pray to bring Frizzle home—and help save the thousands of other Frizzles out there right now desperately waiting for someone.

Frizzle is chipped. Her information is corrected and no longer under "Crypto" and reported missing

This was our exact camp location

40.79891, -113.81370

If you were camping out there the night of Sept 19th and have any information on her. Please let me know.

If you were camping out there, please check your campers storage compartments and small places where she could have jumped in a hid. Even in your car. Possibly some place that was missed.

It's also in my bio

What we've done:
Thermal drone search by Devin Stutz
Drone search by @thehandwrittenatlas & @waywardnerd94
Ground search by my sister @luh_cook & I.
All within a 10 mile radius of the camp as well as the entrance of the salt flats and now the mountains.

We suspect someone picked her under the impression she was abandoned.

We have contacted authorities, shelters, and vets in the SLC area as well as the Wendover area.

This is a tourist destination so if someone picked her up they could have been from anywhere.

There are no wild animals, vegetation, birds of prey, places to hide under, and no water.

I'm now totally relying on word of mouth, socials, and the strength of a community who adores pets and cats to help Frizzle find her way home to me.
