The Las Vegas Valley Humane Society (LVVHS) is a non-profit 501(c)3 corporation established according to Nevada laws for public benefit.  The organization is dedicated to improving the welfare of animals in Southern Nevada. LVVHS’s primary emphasis is on stray and abandoned animals and reducing animal overpopulation.

  • The organization’s mission of reducing animal overpopulation is met primarily through its trap-vaccinate-neuter- and return to caretaker program (TNVR) for feral cats at no cost to the caretaker.

  • Working with low cost clinics, the organization also serves as a referral center for people needing either some assistance or having a complete inability to pay for spays/neuters for owned animals. It continues to pay for spay/neuter services for both dogs and cats.

  • The organization also pays for the spay/neuter of abandoned animals as part of its adoption program.

  • As part of its rescue/rehabilitation program, animals are re-socialized in private foster homes until they can be adopted into new families. The organization will also pull animals from shelters when those animals are not doing well in the shelter environment. This may include extremely anxious animals and/or seniors. Most rescues come in as owner surrenders and strays off the streets. Medical and food costs are provided for these animals. These animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and made available for adoption.
