Name-Your-Price Pet Adoptions in Binghamton

The Humane Society in Binghamton has dozens of cats and dogs in its shelter waiting to be adopted.

For the next few weeks, area residents who would like to provide a safe home for one of these animals may benefit from a price-break on the usual adoption fee.

Normally, an adoption fee of $65 to $187 would be charged for a dog or cat from the Binghamton shelter. But the Humane Society has launched what it bills as a "Name-Your-Own-Price Adopt-a-thon" to make it more affordable for people to acquire a pet.

Prospective pet owners may make a selection from the 50 dogs and 90 cats now in the shelter on the city's South Side and make an offer.

The Humane Society's facility is at 2 Jackson Street in Binghamton. It's open from noon to 5:00 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays and from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 pm Saturdays.
