Black Friday is a usually just a massive consumer exploit, but for some, it can actually be a great opportunity to find true love. That's because at least two animal shelters, The Animal Care and Control Team of Philadelphia, the Oregon Humane Society and at PAWS of Lynwood, WA, are offering adoption specials (waived fees in some cases) on all black pets -which often stay in the shelter longer than animals of other colors.
If you're looking for a new best friend, see if your local shelter is offering any specials and don't be afraid of black cats or dogs.
