Heaven Can Wait Animal Society was founded as a non-profit in 2000, with the goal to eliminate the senseless, unnecessary killing of cats and dogs in Las Vegas area shelters. We focus on the critical need for high-volume, low-cost targeted spay and neuter surgeries for companion animals and free-roaming cats, as well as providing educational programs and adoption opportunities. Here are the key areas of our focus:

We focus on spay and neuter efforts that target neighborhoods from which a large number of dogs and cats enter the shelter system.

We create opportunities for dogs to obtain a second, and often a third or fourth, chance at a new lease on life through our Pups On Parole Program.

We help form local coalitions with other animal welfare groups.

We offer free vaccination clinics in neighborhoods with a high percentage of pets entering the shelter system.

Our Pawsitively Seniors is a cat-companion program for cats and seniors on a fixed income.
