Flounder Cat All Designs are Hand Drawn by Nina
Nina, also known as Flounder’s mom, is an award-winning artist, animator, and children’s book illustrator whose creative passion shines through every piece of her work. With years of experience bringing whimsical characters to life, Nina has found her greatest inspiration right at home — in the form of her beloved fish, Flounder the Purrmaid. Flounder isn’t just her muse, but also the heart and soul of this collection.
Nina’s favorite subject to paint and draw has always been Flounder, and every design you see begins with real-life moments captured through photography. Flounder has happily “modeled” for countless reference photos, allowing Nina to capture her playful personality and signature expressions with incredible accuracy and charm. From the initial sketch to the finished artwork, each design is lovingly hand-drawn and carefully crafted by Nina herself.
Every product in the Flounder Cat collection represents the bond between artist and muse — a blend of Nina’s artistic skill and Flounder’s irresistible charisma. The result is a one-of-a-kind line of artwork and products that are not only beautiful, but also deeply personal. When you bring home a Flounder Cat design, you’re not just getting a piece of art — you’re getting a little piece of FlounderLand.
Wingapo is a greeting, and this is Flounder giving it. Hand drawn in watercolor by Nina Leipold, it is the softest thing we print: a purrmaid mid-wave, paddle in hand, in washes of blue and green that look like they are still wet.

Who Flounder is
Flounder is a real cat who talks using communication buttons. Nina draws her by hand, from life, which is why every design looks like a specific cat rather than a stock one.
Why this one
Most of the Flounder designs are funny. This one is not trying to be. It is the one people buy for someone else, and the one that works year round rather than only in December.
The purrmaid shows up again in Flocahontas and Youth Purrmaids. Everything she is on lives in the full Flounder Cat collection.
