Dealing with unwanted wildlife in Rhode Island, particularly in the Providence area? It's a common issue across the Ocean State.

Choose your city

Rhode Island's coastal climate, with its distinct seasons, influences wildlife behavior. While winters can be cold, they rarely deter persistent animals like squirrels and raccoons from seeking shelter and food sources within homes, especially in older housing stock common in areas like Providence. The transition between seasons often prompts animals to search for new nesting sites, leading them to attics and basements.

Who to call to pick up stray cats?

For stray domestic cats in the Providence area, you should reach out to local animal shelters or rescue groups. They are the most appropriate resources for handling stray cats and kittens, as our expertise lies in managing wild animals.
