Saving Lives Every Day!
Heaven Can Wait Animal Society is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to eradicating the senseless euthanasia of more than 40,000 animals annually in southern Nevada. A leader in education and awareness of the principles of responsible pet ownership, HCWS has saved thousands of animals through its sterilization, rescue and rehabilitation programs including: The Feral Cat Clinic, controlling the overpopulation and suffering of feral cats; Ground Zero, offering affordable spay and neuter programs; It's the Pits, focusing on sterilization of Pit Bull and Pit-mixed breeds; Tales to Tails, fostering children's literacy utilizing trained dogs; and Pups on Parole, pairing homeless rescue animals with inmates in local correctional facilities for rehabilitation and reintroduction into society. In June 2009, HCWS will open a high-volume, low-cost spay and neuter clinic as part of its W.A.R. project (War Against Reproduction) to control overpopulation and reduce the number of unwanted pets in Las Vegas. The clinic will be the first of its kind in Las Vegas. To learn more about HCWS, click here.

Feature Story, 1+1 = A Family
A metro police officer was responding to a call and found Echo shivering next to his homeless “owner.” Each without food, shelter or life necessities, his owner was arrested, and the Metro Police Officer did not want to take Echo to Lied where he knew he would be killed as he was sickly and spent. He heard about HCWS and placed the call that saved Echo’s life. Not so far away, little Isabella was tied to a post in a city park where teens had repeatedly used her as a paint ball target. Covered in welts and too much paint to imagine, she was rescued by HCWS. Both dogs went into and graduated from the Pups on Parole Program and patiently waited for adoption, building bonds as friends and survivors. Read about Echo's and Isabella's happy ending.
