Gimme’ Shelter – Chickory at the Providence Animal Control Center
Hello out there! I’m an 8 or 9 month old floofy female kitty who was originally found as a stray, can you believe it? I was adopted out quickly but, I came back to PAC, me and the resident cat just didn’t hit it off – and that’s OK.
My volunteer friend says I am the BEST cuddler EVER and I am SO sweet! I would try and live with another kitty again but, it would have to be the right one, cat savvy kitties who have lived with other cats before would be awesome – or maybe a kitty my own age, either gender is fine, just not a dominant kitty. OR I can live solo with no problem. I will need some brushing/grooming due to my floofy hair so I will have to get used to that to stay mat free.
If you can see me, I am still available! No phone calls please, everything is done online and we do need an application submitted and approved before scheduling a visit. We differ from other shelters by offering a one on one experience between you, our staff and the animal or animals you’ve chosen to become a new family member! Please email [email protected]
About the Providence Animal Control Division
The Providence Animal Control Division protects the health and safety of our residents and their pets with progressive leadership and education. We do this by engaging the hearts and minds of the community to help all animals.
Since 2015, we have adopted a “low risk euthanasia” philosophy of healthy adoptable animals. We will continue to improve the live release rate of shelter animals via adoptions, returning strays to their owners, transferring animals to rescues, TNR, programs/services and treating medical cases. We believe that with progressive programs, we can have a more humane City. Through our Gimme Shelter program, PAC is spaying and neutering owned and feral cats for Providence residents. To participate please send a message through our Facebook page at Providence Animal Care Center.
With more than 330 million people in our country and about 12,000 furballs in shelters, why is there even ONE dog or cat in a shelter? How selfish can we be? I’m celebrating 40 years of rescue this year and have two mixed-breed dollies in residence. Nothing beats the love you get from a rescued furball. They go from a cement enclosure to a loving home and they absolutely bloom like you wouldn’t believe. I spent 37 years with Rotties. Every one was a rescue and every one was a love bug. Try it — you’ll love it. ?
