Foster Kitten Sponsorship Program
You can help save a kitten's life for just $42! The VBAS Kitten Foster Program was established in 2001 in response to the overwhelming kitten population in the Burbank area. In 2008, we fostered over 350 kittens who otherwise would have no one to care for them and would, sadly, be euthanized. We expect to rescue ever more kittens this year. The KFP is funded exclusively through donations to the VBAS, and now, for the first time ever, you can sponsor a kitten and save a life.
We cannot do it alone, we need your help! Click here for more details and to complete a donation form, or click a secure PayPal link below and sponsor a kitten today!

Happy Tails Training Sponsorship
Some dogs may bark, jump, hide or not even know how to walk on a leash. A little training can go a long way, so in 2008 the Volunteers of the Burbank Animal Shelter started a special program to help train these dogs and make them more adoptable. Sadly without organizations like the VBAS, these dogs would have to be euthanized. The VBAS training program is funded exclusively by donations given to the VBAS.
For only $40 you will help provide:
• One-on-one session with a professional trainer
• Time to learn basic commands like Sit, Stay or Heel
• Exercise and socialization
• Practice sessions with trained volunteers
We cannot do it alone, we need your help! Click here for more details and to complete a donation form, or click a secure PayPal link below and sponsor a training session today!

A donation to the VBAS in honor of someone on your gift list is a wonderful way to share your love with friends and family, and with our precious animals. Then, everyone gets to participate in helping our "temporary residents" find loving homes!! Each gift recipient will receive a letter notifying them of your donation. (When donating to us thru paypal in honor of someone else, there is a spot on paypal's "pay now" page labeled "Name & Note for Gift Donation" that you can click on to personalize donation before completing payment.)
