Heaven can wait animal sanctuary
HCWS
is regularly out in various low income neighborhoods trying to help
control the pet overpopulation here in Las Vegas. The mobile vet clinic
is a great option for people who have problems getting to our regular
clinics, and it also enables us to target areas with the most feral
cats.
Betty Honn's Animal Adoptions
Animal Adoptions, LTD. "Where the love of animals reigns supreme". Saving animals lives since 1968. Your help in making a donation will help us make more room for more animals to come in. Help us save more pets lives.
CLAW (Cat lovers around the world)
The
goal of our organization is to trap, spay, neuter and inoculate feral
and stray animals, cats mostly pets who are left behind when their
former owners move away. These animals are turned loose to fend for
themselves and repopulate at an alarming rate should they survive. They
will have to overcome the desert heat, starvation, dehydration and other
predators just for starters. Our organization feeds and waters 24/7 at
various sites so that at least some of these animals will not die a slow
and horrible death.
Southern Nevada Parrot Rescue
The
Southern Nevada Parrot Education, Rescue & Rehoming Society
(SNPERRS) is run by volunteers. Our members realize that there are many
reasons why someone may need to give up a pet bird for adoption;
circumstances change for everyone, and simply selling a beloved pet is
not an option for many owners.
