Gimme’ Shelter – Meet Cardi!
This is Cardi – this is what she’d like you to know:
I’m the queen bee around the shelter! I’m a short, stocky and sweet brindle bully. I demand and love everyone’s attention and have big opinions. I came with some behavior issues from my past family, but haven’t shown any of those behaviors here at the shelter.
I absolutely love car rides so a family road trip would be amazing. Give me a big hug and kisses and toss a tennis ball and I’ll be your best friend! I’m the queen so I want to be the only one getting attention in the house.

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, and continues to engage the hearts and minds of the community to help all animals.
As of November 2015, the Animal Control Division has adopted a “low risk euthanasia” philosophy of healthy adoptable animals and 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.
