Mission

Homeward bound is a no-kill adoption center dedicated to saving the lives of homeless cats in the las vegas valley and providing a humane recourse for people in distress who are no longer able to care for their cats- offering an alternative to taking them to a municipal shelter or abandoning them in the streets. Homeward bound works to achieve its mission through adoption, foster, and help desk services, together with community outreach and collaboration with other animal welfare organizations. Our modern, free-roaming adoption center is designed to minimize the stress experienced by homeless cats, increase enrichment, and make it easier for them to find loving homes. Homeward bound respects and values the life of every cat, and strives to enrich the lives of our volunteers, employees, and visitors by providing a quality workplace, up-to-date humane education, and compassionate care for our cats.
