Providence has beautiful green eyes and a lovely ‘singing’ voice — and if you’d like to hear it, just show her a little love and she’ll start her melodic purring. She also loves to be the center of attention, and would therefore do best in a home where she’s the only cat.

Providence recently had a litter of kittens, and now she's a bit thin, so she could use a little fattening up. With a good dose of spoiling, Providence should have no problem getting back to a healthy weight.
Providence is available for adoption at Rancho Coastal Humane Society. Her adoption fee is $125, which includes a medical exam, spay, up to date vaccinations, and microchip.
is located at 389 Requeza St. in Encinitas. The hours of operation are from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., except on Tuesday, when the shelter opens at 11:30 a.m.
