If it's a raccoon, you could put stinky things around the attic (ammonia-soaked rags, your cats' old litter, mothballs) or put a loud radio up there (might not be optimal if it's going to bother your family as well) or bright lights (flashing optional but might work better?). Mind that you leave the escape hole(s) open for a while, though, in case there's already a litter - that way the female can relocate them herself. Cayenne pepper sprinkled around makes a good repellent once they're gone.
