Gimme’ Shelter – Micha at the Providence Animal Control Center
Hi! I’m Micha and I am about then years old. I have a story to tell…
My former person thought I was spayed, or thought she spayed me, but I wasn’t – and she didn’t. She also thought that I was 17 years old, and I’m not. I am around 10 years old and sadly I had a very painful uterus all of my life, and it was very awful for me. Sometimes with pain, animals can act out and that’s how I ended up at PAC.


I am feeling A LOT better now! And, I am getting used to my new life NOT in pain – I am very healthy too! I just had my teeth cleaned during my spay, blood work, all my vaccines and a microchip.
I am all ready to go home to a nice human companion or 2! I am really happy I came to PAC to get well taken care of.

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.
