Shelter focuses on pets for Black Friday

A Kansas shelter is offering Black Friday deals on hard-to-adopt black pets.

The Wichita Eagle reports that black animals often are overlooked at shelters in part because of superstition. The Kansas Humane Society is offering black or mostly black pets for free from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday. The shelter has been having a Black Friday sale the past few years to garner interest in the pets.

Besides black pets, dogs 6 months and older and kittens of any color will be $50. Adult cats are always free, though donations are accepted.
