Shelter Medical Program
Under the direction of Martin Small, D.V.M., the medical program has helped provide vaccinations, examinations and feline viral testing for many of the animals that enter the shelter, ensuring pets are healthy before being adopted. Dr. Small has been graciously donating his services on a part-time basis to the Burbank Animal Shelter for the past year and brings a lifetime of veterinary experience and expertise to the Shelter.

Kitten Foster Program
This highly successful program has been in existence since 2001 and fostered hundreds of kittens. The kitten foster parents provide shelter, attention and affection to the kittens until they are healthy, well socialized and ready for adoption. In 2004 alone, the program fostered 235 kittens with the help of 15-20 foster parents.

Senior Pet Therapy at LeBleu Chateau
Each Sunday, our volunteers visit with senior friends at Le Bleu Chateau located in Burbank. Our volunteers bring their dogs and cats to the facility where both animal and volunteer may interact one on one with residents. Senior Pet Therapy provides amusement, laughter and entertainment in addition to strengthening the human-animal bond to help reduce stress and loneliness.

Senior Pets for Senior People
Senior dogs and cats make great companions for senior people! There’s a kind of understanding they share about growing older and wiser. The Burbank Animal Shelter is offering to waive adoption charges for Burbank Senior Citizens wishing to adopt a senior dog or cat. Burbank residents age 55 and older may adopt a Burbank Animal Shelter dog or cat that is seven years or older, without having to pay the regular adoption fee. There’s always a selection of older pets in need of a home and companionship, so senior citizens are invited to come down to the Shelter, meet the animals and talk with Shelter Staff or Volunteers about finding a suitable pet.
