Wendy was born and raised in New York. She was always the type of person to bring home strays—cats, dogs, birds, snakes—you name it, she would rescue it. She has always had a passion for helping animals. After a stint in Virginia, where she worked her way through nursing school and then decided she would rather work with animals, she moved to South Carolina. Once she settled in, she became involved with the SPCA and started taking every certification class that was offered. She still has a passion for shelter animals and rescue and is glad to be a part of a veterinary clinic that works with both. As she enjoys being able to help however she can, she also spends time with her grandbabies and, of course, her own two rescues, Babs the Boston and Ol’ Wild Bill. Many of you have had the pleasure of meeting Bill while he lounged around sunning in our lobby, but after a weekend at Wendy’s, they both decided it was time for him to be an apartment cat instead of a clinic cat [citation].
