Las Vegas shelters packed—here’s how to help

Shelters across Las Vegas are overflowing, with more than 550 dogs and countless cats squeezed into spaces meant for far fewer. This ‘critical capacity’ means animals are at risk of longer stays, stress, and fewer resources for care. Local shelters like The Animal Foundation and Henderson APS are urgently asking for help—whether it’s adopting, fostering, or even just spreading the word. Some adoption fees are fully covered right now, making it easier than ever to bring home a new friend. If you’ve ever thought about helping out, now’s the time. How do you think our community can best support these animals? #Pets #LasVegas #AdoptDontShop
