{{about|the enemy from the games|the [[monster]] in the anime|[[Whippy (monster)]]}}
'''Whippy''' is an [[enemy]] that debuted in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', yielding the [[Whip]] ability when swallowed.

Whippy has an oval shaped body with vaguely feline features and a long, whip-like tail on top. It has orange whiskers on the side of its head, and its fur consists of warm colors, mainly reds and oranges. Whippy bears a dour expression, accented by its brow.

Whippy spins its tail around in the air once, then snaps the whip toward the closest target. This has a decent amount of range to it, making Whippy rather dangerous.
