Gimme’ Shelter – Mortimer at Providence Animal Control Center

Yes, it’s a Guinea Pig! Mortimer is an adult male. He’s a medium cram, champagne and black, handsome young fella.

Mortimer says, “I am a name Guinea Pig who was found as a stray, strange huh!? I am just happy that I am safe! I was very well behaved for my vet exam and nail trim. I just needed some better food and care. I would be great for any home interested in a friendly companion. I’m economical, too, only in the $20 range for adoption – plus what you will need to keep me well-housed and fed. But, any way you look at it, I’m a bargain…

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].

If you have general calls on adoption, call (401) 680-7591 – but it’s always better to email us.

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.
