Ondria stated that black cats and dogs are more likely spend longer time in shelters awaiting adoption.

Ondria stated that there is evidence that shelter animals will stay longer than any other animal. It's not that their eyes are blinded. "We have black cats, and we have all kinds of black dogs in our shelter. There's nothing scary that happens to them. They are loved by us and just as much fun to own than any other animal.

Ondria stated that there are many black cats and dogs at the Humane Society looking for a home.
