WildCat Ridge is a 501(c)3 non-profit ‘last hope’ sanctuary located in beautiful Scotts Mills, Oregon. Our mission is to provide a safe, natural lifetime home for captive-born wildcats in need. WildCat Ridge Sanctuary is not open to the public; nor do we buy, sell, breed, or exhibit our animals. It’s a philosophy we believe in and stand by for the safety and well-being of the wildcats.

WildCat Ridge Sanctuary was founded in 2001 by Michael and Cheryl Tuller. We care for more than 80 animals, including 50 wildcats and hybrid cats as well as many domestic feral cats and two dogs. Our WCR herd and flock consists of two roosters, one turkeys, two donkeys, two Jacob sheep and two cows. We love all animals in our care equally, and it is our mission to provide a safe, natural lifetime home for all WCR residents. 

As a sanctuary, WildCat Ridge chooses not to be open to the public. The wildcats that we take in usually have a traumatic and painful background that comes from their previous lives. Because of that, we want to be a place where the animals can thrive and learn to forget their past and enjoy their present.

Earning accreditation from Tigers in America (TIA) ) The Big Cat Sanctuary Alliance and verification from The Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries (GFAS), WildCat Ridge meets strict care & safety standards, and we are the only accredited big cat sanctuary in the Pacific Northwest.
