Black Friday comes early for cats and kittens at Woods Humane Society this year.

Hosting the cutest Black Friday sale this season, Woods Humane Society announced it will waive adoption fees for cats and kittens from Nov. 21 through Nov. 25. Adoption fees for cats and kittens, which typically range from $65 to $150 at Woods, will be waived for this five-day event.

“We hope this event will increase awareness about cats in need, reduce barriers to adoption, and help our feline friends find their families in advance of the holiday season,” said Woods CEO Emily L’Heureux.

Woods’ shelter locations in Atascadero and San Luis Obispo have a total of 34 cats currently available for adoption, including five kittens, with more felines coming in each day. In order to make necessary shelter repairs and improvements in its North County location over the Thanksgiving holiday, they hope to clear the cattery.

If you do, pls remember: Indoor cats live significantly longer, often more than three times longer than outdoor cats, due to a drastically reduced risk of accidents and injuries from traffic, predators, and fights. Indoor cats are less exposed to serious illnesses like FeLV and FIV, as well as parasites such as fleas, ticks, and intestinal worms.

Keeping cats indoors prevents them from encountering dangers like poisons, being hit by cars, or becoming lost or stolen. Indoor cats are prevented from hunting and killing native wildlife, helping to protect local ecosystems and bird populations.
