Free Cat Adoptions On Black Friday At Las Vegas Rescue
Black Friday is a day when most people go out and shop for gifts. But one local Las Vegas animal rescue is giving incentive to adopt a cat instead.
Well, technically you can do both, but actually not during this sale. Because there’s no shopping required to adopt a cat at this Las Vegas rescue on Black Friday. The black ones can go home with you for free.
The Humane Network in Las Vegas is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping homeless cats and dogs. The organization recently announced that on Black Friday, all of their adult black cats would be free to adopt. And adult cats that are not black are also discounted at half price.
The Humane Network’s Black Friday offer is going on all weekend long.
From Friday, November 24 through Sunday, November 26. The rescue will be open from noon to 6pm on all three days for people to come find their new family member. They are located at 2675 East Flamingo Road, Suite 3. Near the corner of Flamingo and Eastern in Las Vegas.
While adoption fees are waived for all adult black cats for the weekend, they still come with everything the adoption fee typically includes. All cats will be spayed or neutered. They will be up to date on their age-appropriate vaccines. And each animal will be microchipped before going to their new home.
The Humane Network uses donations to help the homeless cats and dogs they find. And they encourage animal-lovers in Las Vegas to donate on Giving Tuesday, which is November 28. Those interested in helping can get more information at humanenetwork.org. Or by calling them at 702-463-9996.
Those interested in adopting or helping can also follow the Human Network on Facebook at facebook.com/HumaneNetwork.
And if you’re wondering why black cats make the best pets, here you go.
5 Reasons Why Black Cats Make The Best Pets
1. They are beautiful.
The contrast of a black cat’s dark coat with their bright eyes is gorgeous. Many have yellow eyes but there are some with blue as well. Also, their coats, when well cared-for, shine in a way cats of other colors just don’t.
2. They're less likely to get sick.
If you have ever owned a pet, you know those vet bills can add up. Well there’s a little-known secret that black cats are more disease-resilient than cats of other colors. That could mean less money out of your pocket.
3. They're less likely to get eaten.
Black cats are great at camouflaging at night. And Las Vegas residents know coyotes in these parts are getting worse and worse. Your little black fur baby has a better chance at eluding these predators than their kitty counterparts.
4. They're less likely to get stolen.
This is where that bad black kitty stigma is a good thing. Because some people are superstitious against them, they’re not as likely to get stolen if they’re out wandering around. And some people swear they actually scare off would-be home invaders too.
5. It's like having a mini panther!
There aren’t many breeds of domestic cat that mimics the coloring of their wild counterparts. The black cat is one of the few who actually look like a mini version of a big cat. And let’s face it…with Min Pins and Teacup Poodles, aren’t minis where it’s at these days? When someone asks what kind of cat you have, you can say “A Min Pan” (mini pather). 😀
