ABOUT HEAVEN CAN WAIT ANIMAL SOCIETY:

Heaven Can Wait Animal Society, a non-profit 501 (c)(3) animal humane organization, was formed in 2000 by a group of five concerned citizens with the idea of building a beautiful 20 acre sanctuary to house all of the unwanted animals in our community. In the meantime, though, animals were, and still are, dying at rate of around 30,000 per year in our local shelters with even more just dying in the streets. Therefore, the non-profit decided to refocus their efforts slightly away from rescue and more toward promoting spay/neuter as the solution to the tragic pet overpopulation problem in Las Vegas.
