Gimme’ Shelter – Whitman’s at the Providence Animal Control Shelter

Well hi there, I am a nice boy who somehow wound up outside and injured 🙁 I somehow made it through all on my own even with my injuries.

I was trapped at a home that looked warm and safe and it was. Then I was able to get the help that I needed.

I am only about 2 years old and all I have known is a life of struggle, I am hoping all of that changes soon, I am pretty scared but I would blossom in a home, especially with another cat 🙂

I am FIV positive but, don’t let that scare you, I can live with negative cats! Think of it this way, if I was bothered by my FIV, I wouldn’t have healed as fast as I did all by myself with no help..

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.
