Review for WildCat Ridge Sanctuary, Scotts Mills, OR, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

WildCat Ridge Sanctuary is a piece of Heaven on Earth for abused and relocated exotic cats. It is a place for these cats to go and retire in comfort, respect and get the TLC they need and deserve. Amazing Team of true exotic cat Heroes! My story working with WildCat Ridge was when Cheryl and Mike contacted me in Ohio about Tigers that they were going to relocate to their facility. My group, Outreach for Animals, was needed to do the prep work ( medical needs/physicals, preparing travel cages,etc.). As many remember, Ohio had the worse Big Cat incident in the USA's history...The Zanesville Massacre. A notorious private exotic animal owner turned 38 Tigers, Lions, Leopards and Mountain Lions loose on the city of Zanesville, Ohio forcing Police to shoot and kill 36 of them. He actually released 56 animals in all; Bears, Wolves, Primates, etc. At this time in Ohio, we needed all the help we could get to find homes for numerous Big Cats and were not getting many offers for help. WildCat Ridge Sanctuary stepped up and volunteered to help! They set up the move and did the logistics to relocate Nora, a White Tiger, and Katie, an Orange Tiger from Ohio to Oregon. Cheryl and Mike's professionalism and genuine love for these exotic cats were amazing! I have since been invited to come out and see Nora and Katie and watched the growth of WildCat Ridge Sanctuary into one of the premiere Sanctuaries in the World. I have since been invited to be an advisor to their Board of Directors and I consider that an honor. Good people, great place!
