Monkey's N' More's owner Lisa Whitaker has again taken a customer's deposit and refuses to refund it. After being involved in this situation, numerous other individuals have contacted me with even more horrible stories of animal abuse and fraud.
I find myself fortunate to only have lost $2,500 to this woman as other's unfortunately are in far worse situations from trusting this individual. Her usual methods, which unfortunately I too succumbed to, are to take your hefty deposit and promise you a monkey.
If you want your deposit back after hearing the kind of condition her monkeys can be in when sent to you in, if in fact you do get a monkey etc., she will stall you hopefully until you give up.
With me she told me she would refund the deposit, but she had already paid tax on the deposit and had to figure out how to do it. She suggested I pay the $4,500 balance (with out getting a monkey) and she would then refund the entire balance when she sold the monkey. Of course I wouldn't give her any more money and so when I told her I would take her to small claims court she told me the deposit was for "a tour of the facilities".
I presume that was standing in her store. She has told other's that she has had various operations, and what is amusing is that one can only have a hysterectomy once and not as many times as she has claimed to various people.
It seems there is no limit to this woman. I feel sorry for the many other's in similar and worse situations, I feel sorry for the monkeys and other animals that she is in contact with.
