West Palm Beach, FL (December 9, 2025)— Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League is thrilled to announce that 117 animals found loving forever homes during its annual Black FURiday fee-waived adoption event, held on Friday, November 28, 2025.
From playful puppies and affectionate dogs to cuddly kittens and charming cats, families from across Palm Beach County opened their hearts and homes, making this year’s Black FURiday one of the most successful yet. The event welcomed crowds of hopeful adopters between 11:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., all eager to “Adopt, Don’t Shop” and give a shelter pet a new beginning.
Large-scale adoption events like Black FURiday allow the shelter to make room for even more animals in need. The 117 empty kennels are being filled back up with local animals transferred from municipal shelters, so they can also find homes for the holidays.
“We are incredibly grateful to everyone who chose adoption this holiday season,” said Sue Berry, CEO of Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League. “Seeing 117 pets head home with families ready to love them is the greatest gift we could ask for.”
As always, all adopted pets were spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, with only a $20 rabies tag fee applying for Palm Beach County residents.
Thank you to the sponsors of this event who made these 117 happy tails possible: MetLife Pet Insurance, Hill’s Pet Nutrition, Scenthound, Nozzle Nolen, K9 Resorts, and Tito’s Handmade Vodka.
