Sally Domestic Short Hair Sumter, SC

Sally, the shy gray cat, was a delicate and demure feline with a coat as soft as a misty morning. Her fur, a subtle blend of ash and silver, held a muted elegance that mirrored her reserved nature. Large, luminous green eyes peeked out from beneath a gentle fringe of whiskers, revealing a quiet curiosity that contrasted with her overall timid demeanor.

Sally's petite frame moved gracefully, almost as if she were a wisp of smoke navigating the world around

her. She had a penchant for finding cozy hiding spots, often nestled in the quiet corners of the house, where she could observe the happenings with a watchful gaze. Despite her reserved nature, Sally's heart was warm and kind, evident in the gentle purrs that emanated from her whenever someone approached with a soft touch.

In the presence of strangers, Sally would shy away, seeking refuge in the safety of her favorite nooks. Yet, when in the company of those she trusted, she blossomed into a loving companion. Her moments of vulnerability revealed a charming vulnerability that endeared her to those fortunate enough to be part of her small circle.

Sally's days were spent in a careful balance of solitude and connection, her shy demeanor masking a deep well of affection that she reserved for those who took the time to understand the subtle beauty of her quiet world.
If you are interesting in meeting any of our pets, the process is to complete an application. It can be downloaded as a pdf document from our website and submitted by email to WindyRidgeRescue@gmail.com as a scanned document or as photos OR can be completed entirely online. Both links are in the header of our website.

Because we are foster based, we require an approved application to schedule a meet and greet. We feel that is fair to our fosters and rescues so every meet and greet can result in an adoption. A limited number of cats are showcased at Peetco in Sumter, SC weekly.

We do not have set adoption fees for dogs, but hope adopters will donate generously so we can rescue more. The medical care for every dog can easily exceed the adoption donation. Average adoption fees for dogs in the area range from $175 up to $450. Your generous adoption donations help us continue our programs of providing quality food and medical care to those who pass through our fosters.

We ask for a minimum adoption donation of $70 for cats who are not yet altered and $100 for cats who are already spayed or neutered, regardless of age. Please bring your own carrier for the ride home! Each cat is up to date on vaccinations, dewormer, and microchipped. Larger donations are always welcome so we can rescue more. Medical care for each cat easily exceeds the minimum donation.

As with every rescue, our resources are limited and the need for rescue help is unlimited. Your generosity helps us to rescue more and funds the only Trap Neuter Return Program in the county. It's like tossing $100 bills in the woods when we trap a cat, vaccinate and spay or neuter that cat and then return them to the colony. Young kittens are tamed and available for adoption. We are alone doing this in our area. Your increased donation at the time of adoption can help us cover costs for the cat becoming part of your family as well as a feral to prevent more feral litters.

Adopting or fostering for a rescue frees up a space where a new rescue can reside.

If you can't adopt or foster, than please consider donating.
