We Care for Animals is holding their General Meeting today at 5 p.m. at the Historic Gym located at 51 E. First North St.
We Care for Animals (WCFA) is a 501(c) (3) non-profit animal rescue organization located in Mesquite, Nevada near the Nevada-Arizona Strip border. WCFA is a foster-based rescue; we do not have a facility. Our cats and dogs are in foster care until adoption.
We Care’s service areas are Mesquite and Bunkerville, Nevada and the Arizona Strip communities of Scenic, Littlefield, Beaver Dam and Desert Springs. We find quality homes for homeless companion animals, provide low-cost or free spay and neuter for pets of qualified pet owners in the areas mentioned above, as well as assistance with Trap, Neuter and Return (TNR) of community (feral and free-roaming) cats. You can help save community cats in your neighborhood by becoming their caregiver and getting them spayed and neutered with our assistance. Contact us for more information by leaving a message at 702-346-3326.
