Wendy’s Cats: Guardian Sold Them? Shocking Lawsuit Details

There’s been another development regarding Wendy Williams’ two cats.

A lawsuit filed by Williams’ ex-husband, Kevin Hunter – purportedly on her behalf – alleges that Williams’ guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, “sold” the former talk show host’s “beloved, rescued cats,” Chit Chat and My Way, without her “knowledge,” thus “isolating” her from “much-needed companionship and emotional support.”

The lawsuit further alleges that Morrissey “breached her fiduciary duty” to Williams “by refusing to continue paying for the boarding fees” for the two cats and “subsequently selling” them. Williams, 60, has been under legal guardianship overseeing both her finances and her health since 2022 and has been living in a N.Y.C. assisted-living facility since 2023.

Williams previously mentioned during an interview on a radio show in January that Morrissey had informed her that her cats – whom she rescued in 2019 – were “gone.”

“I said, ‘You mean they are gone gone gone gone gone?’” she recalled. “Chit Chat and My Way, my twin cats, they’re gone.”

Questions about the cats’ whereabouts initially surfaced after they were featured in a documentary.

The lawsuit names 48 defendants – including Morrissey, the judge presiding over the guardianship, Lisa Sokoloff, Wells Fargo, and others – alleging violations of her constitutional rights.

While the lawsuit claims Williams is not seeking an end to the guardianship, Hunter is requesting a “new impartial guardian,” the unsealing of her case files, her release from “involuntary confinement,” and $250 million in relief for “financial loss, reputational damage, emotional distress, reputational harm, legal expense, and deprivation of liberty.”

Hunter alleges Williams “has been the victim of unrestrained abuse, maltreatment, and fiscal malfeasance” in the three years since her guardianship was first imposed due to her dementia diagnosis (which she has since contested).

Hunter further claims that his ex-wife “was not afforded an independent medical evaluation” before being placed under a guardianship and has since been “subjected to overmedication and undue restrictions.”

However, LaShawn Thomas, the attorney who filed the lawsuit, acknowledges in a statement that Williams is “not legally aware of all of the evidence that supports our claims that she should not be forced to suffer from this guardianship.”

“I plan on laying out sufficient evidence to support our claims and ensure that her rights are vindicated and she is made whole financially,” the statement continued.

Wells Fargo declined to comment.
