Trisha Meyer, also known as Mimi Erotic is a Houston resident and exotic zoo-keeper. She's also a fugitive on the run from the FBI, wanted on multiple offenses including but not limited to the unlawful sale of a jaguar.
Law enforcement is looking for Trisha Denise Meyer, a.k.a. "Mimi," 40, of Houston, Texas, who is charged in a federal indictment alleging she illegally transported and sold a live jaguar cub. The jaguar later was re-sold and abandoned, and now lives at an animal sanctuary in CA. pic.twitter.com/WOsiOEdov3

Meyer has a long history of housing exotic animals including tigers, monkeys, a fox, and even a skunk. At one point, officers arrived at her home to inquire about the sale of a $3,000 exotic Savannah kitten. The money had been paid by a California man, but the cat never showed up.
In 2017 Meyer was charged with child endangerment for having wild big game animals roaming freely in her home. Those charges were later dismissed.
In the interim, Meyer has started multiple Instagram pages, and an OnlyFans account (which is now deactivated.) Seemingly, the sole purpose of these channels was to scam people out of money.
The largest of which is her most recent offense. The aptly dubbed 'female Joe Exotic' illegally sold a jaguar to a California man for $30,000. According to court documents, she's facing charges including trafficking endangered species, interstate sale of an endangered species, trafficking prohibited wildlife species, and interstate transit of an endangered species in the course of commercial activity.
As of October 11th, Meyer was still on the run from law enforcement. Word of advice...don't give this woman your money.
