Gimme’ Shelter: Gilligan, Providence Animal Control Center
I’m Gilligan, you might remember me at PAC about a year ago. Sadly, my person had to bring me back to PAC. I miss her a lot but I couldn’t go where she was going. It was rough at first, but I am back to my goofy self.
I am sweet and affectionate and outgoing, seems I learned a thing or 2 when I was outta PAC! I don’t seem to mind the cats that are next to me, either. I would love a home where I could soak up all of the attention and look out all of the windows and eat plenty of canned food. I am about 3 and a half years old.


If you can see me, I am still available! We prefer everything regarding adoption be done via email, this way we can answer any time or day! We do need an application submitted before scheduling a visit. If you don’t have access to email, no worries, please call 401 680 7591. 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, 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.
