Happy Home Animal Sanctuary
Friends Of Feral Felines
A Non-Profit Organization Serving Southern Nevada
Friends of Feral Felines is a Non-Profit organization that was formed based on a sincere love for these wonderful creatures that bring so much love and joy into our lives. Originally organized in 1996, FOFF has been serving the Southern Nevada area rescuing 100’s of cats each year.
Over the past three years, FOFF has expanded its rescue efforts to include dogs as well as our feline friends. We are currently in the process of setting up a new organization called Happy Home Animal Sanctuary that will replace Friends of Feral Felines.
We are committed to the humane management of feral, stray, abused, & abandoned cats & dogs throughout Southern Nevada. We actively trap, sterilize, and vaccinate these animals and find loving homes for the rescued animals through our adoption program. Those unadoptable animals are placed at the sanctuary or returned to the feral colony from which they were trapped. This latter program, popularly termed “TAR” (Trap, Alter and Release) has been recognized throughout the United States as one of the most successful management programs for handling the feral cat overpopulation problem.
We are excited to now be able to accept secure online donations through PayPal. To make a donation, please click on the Donate button to the right.

Animal cruelty alleged at Las Vegas apartment
On June 1, 2008, volunteers of Happy Home Animal Sanctuary were notified of a serious situation at a Las Vegas apartment complex. When the volunteers arrived, what they found was horrifying. Six young kittens had been sealed into a block wall using urethane foam, a type of insulation that hardens around anything it touches.
The volunteers were able to rescue the kittens, but unfortunelately one was lost due to the damage from the foam insulation. They worked long through the night trying to clean up and stablize the remaining kittens and the work continues today.
The event was covered on Las Vegas channel 3 KVBC yesterday afternoon and their article can be found at http://www.kvbc.com/Global/story.asp?S=8419110.
We have setup a Happy Home Animal Sanctuary blog and will be covering the progress of the kittens there.
