The City of Toronto is holding a free black cat adoption event just in time for Black Friday.
Until Sunday, Nov. 30, the city is waiving the usual $75 adoption fee for all kittens or cats with any black colouring.
A $15 ($7.50 for seniors) pet license fee will still be applied.

More than 150 cats, all of which are spayed/neutred, micro-chipped, vet-checked, de-wormed and vaccinated, are available for adoption at the city’s four animal shelters as well as at several adoption partner locations.
About 220 cats and kittens were adopted during the recent Fall in Love adoption campaign, but there’s still an immediate need to find homes for more than 150 cats and kittens.
Research has shown that black cats and dog tend to not be adopted as quickly from shelters as animals of other colours.
Anyone interested in adopting a kitten or a cat should visit a Toronto Animal Services shelter in your neighbourhood. More information can be found online at www.toronto.ca/animalservices.
