I grew up in southern Illinois and moved to the Colorado Springs area in 1989 just before I turned 21. I became a Black Forest resident in 2006 and hope to remain here until I die. I’ve been fortunate enough to work as a software developer for the same company since 1997. Most of you know my wonderful…
I’m a retired corporate event planner that moved from Atlanta to CO in Spring of ’22. I will celebrate my 30th wedding anniversary in December with my husband Neal. We have two adorable cats named Niro and Keenan. The latter which I adopted from WB in August. I learned about Wild Blue from a neighbor…
Hello! My name is Erin Ong, and along with my daughter, Addie, we’re on our second round of volunteering with Wild Blue Cats! We first fostered kittens in 2018 but took a break when life (and our own cats’ medical needs) got a little overwhelming. Early in 2025, we jumped back in and have loved…
I’m Wendy Jones and I’m a Colorado native, but I’ve been in the Springs for about 15 years. I absolutely love being able to help out around Wild Blue in any way I can, but my heart belongs to Maya’s Wildheart Village. It means so much to me to slowly earn the trust of our…

My name is Nicholas, and I have been dedicated to rescuing animals for over 45 years. My journey began with aggressive large-breed dogs like Chows, Akitas, and Mastiffs. These breeds, often misunderstood and unfairly judged, became my calling. Over the years, I’ve worked tirelessly to rehabilitate and provide them with the love and structure they…

Hello, we are the Hockett family. Our Wild Blue journey started, we think, in our oldest son’s (Jordan’s) sophomore year in high school (he’s now a sophomore in college) – although Nichole remembers a project Jordan did in middle school that initially introduced him to Wild Blue. Jordan started with socializing the cats – we…
Hi my name is Meg Reed! I have been here at WBC for almost two years. I’m a lead in Kaylenes Kradle and when I can I help out by being a runner on clinic days! I have a cat, not from WB, she doesn’t like other cats or I’m sure I would have more.…
