Foster Kittens

Sweet, affectionate, playful! Amber loves play times with her little brother Jasper and enjoys cuddles with people. Pleasure to have around. Very well behaved, very social, super cute, a perfect kitten! Bonded with her brother Jasper.

To learn more about Amber & Jasper, please contact their foster mom, Barbara, at basiafifield@yahoo.com.

Merle may not know which dice to roll, but you’ll be in the zone of truth when you realize he’s a very good little boy! Merle likes to play with Magnus and play with his toys, but he also likes to sleep and relax.

Merle is a wonderful snuggler and loves to sit on your lap and just enjoy being with you. He also is in love with our 70 pound bulldog and loves snuggling with him or with his brothers.

Merle is super social and would do best with one or both of his brothers, or in a home with other cats or cat-friendly dogs.

To learn more about Merle, please contact Stephanie at stephanie.elise.h@gmail.com.

Oreo looks big, but he’s all floof. This roly-poly gentle giant loves his toys, loves his siblings, loves shoulder scratches and will purr up a storm when you start petting him. He’s also a big fan of laps and snoozing on the bed with his foster dad. His markings give him a goofy and somewhat startled look, but that just makes him more lovable. He would be happiest in a home with another cat or with one of his siblings (Red Riding Hood, Cookie or Milkshake).

Contact Oreo’s Foster dad to meet him! chris@thevbas.org

My name is Sterling. I was brought to the Burbank Animal Shelter on August 7th by a nice person who found me near the Pickwick Gardens in Burbank. My foster mom tells me I’m a super sweet kitty that has the kindest, gentlest little heart. When we play, and I wrote the book on it, I keep my sharp claws to myself because I don’t want to hurt you! You wanna know another thing about me… I absolutely love to be pet nearly everywhere! And you can stroke my long, happy tail as much as you like! My foster mom also speaks softly and adoringly to me and that just melts my heart.

I do pretty well entertaining myself with my favorite toys but I really love playing with one of my foster mom’s cats. He has become my good buddy. I kinda think he likes me too. Although he’s bigger than me, I can hold my own pretty well. Sometimes I think he lets me win our many wrestling matches just so we can play again! Perhaps he’s just worn out from my playful energy. Ha! My foster mom tells me she loves when he and I make chirping noises together. I let her know that’s how we communicate.

I am still skittish around humans but am making lots of progress with my foster mom. She tells me I would do well in a quiet home with another cat to play with. Cats make me very happy and comfort me.

If my human is patient and can take some time to love and play with me, I’ll return the love and be a really cool addition to your family.

To learn more about me, please contact my foster mom, Carla, at 818-216-5477.

Mabel is the smallest but mightiest of her brother and sister, and she definitely leads the pack. She is very energetic, curious, and playful. She rarely seems to stop exploring, climbing, and jumping. She loves roughing up her siblings, but also will cuddle up with humans when she is absolutely exhausted. Despite her small size, she never misses a meal – she loves her wet food and will meow non-stop to let you know if her food is running late. Mabel is a great character to have around and you will not have a dull moment with her!

To learn more about Mabel, please contact Laura at laurathomasian@gmail.com.

Chip is a very shy and calm boy who loves to play around with his brother Dale. He loves to cuddle and keep you warm with his fuzzy hair. He would be a purrfect addition to your family!

To learn more about Chip, please call Wanda at 818-471-0073.

Red Riding Hood is a brown tabby heartbreaker with red markings. She has a super cute face and a loving personality to match! She’s a fan of pets and snuggles, and loves to give headbutts. She loves to play with her toys and her siblings, and also has a funny habit of bouncing straight up when she’s surprised. She’s from a litter of four and would be happiest in a home with another cat or sibling (like Oreo, Milkshake or Cookie). She’s a real snuggle monster at bedtime and will happily snooze on your lap or chest.

Contact Red Riding Hood’s Foster dad to meet her! chris@thevbas.org.

Cookie, a tuxie with a phantom of the opera mask, is a real sweetie. He’s super playful and loves to bat his toys all around the house. He loves to climb and explore and will sing for his supper because he *loves* his food! He also has a super loud purr that he’ll show off as soon as you start petting him. He’s also a real lover and will happily snooze on your lap or right next to you at bedtime. Cookie would be happiest in a home with another cat or sibling (like Oreo, Milkshake or Red Riding Hood).

Contact Cookie’s Foster dad to meet him! chris@thevbas.org

Milkshake and her white chin is the smallest of her litter, but she is *fearless*, very inquisitive, and loves to explore. Whether it be a new room, a new toy, or a new person, she’s always the first to investigate! She also loves to bounce, jump, play and wrestle with her siblings. She’s also a big fan of perching on shoulders (maybe she’s part parrot?) and loves to follow her foster dad around the house. She’s a real lover and will make her adopter very happy. She would be happiest in a home with another cat or with one of her siblings (Oreo, Red Riding Hood or Cookie).

Contact Milkshake’s Foster dad to meet her! chris@thevbas.org.

Yang is a beautiful boy who loves to play with his sister Yang. They sleep together, play ball and chase each other around. It would be nice if he could go with his sister, but if not, then maybe another companion  would be ideal.

To learn more about Yang, please call Jeri at 818-246-2917.

Ying is a beautiful girl who loves to play with her brother Yang. They sleep together, play ball and chase each other around. They love to take their morning naps in the little patch of sunshine that comes through the window and if you have a nice comfy fuzzy blanket, that makes it extra special!

To learn more about Ying, please contact Jeri at 818-246-2917.

Hello, my name is Kiki and I am a beautiful orange tabby gal looking for my forever home. I am very playful, love my special toy mouse and love jumping and trying to catch anything that dangles! (Even a leg or two!) I am a real purr machine, as soon as you touch or pick me up I start that machine going. I love to cuddle and I am the queen of naps! I can fall asleep anywhere, under the table, in the doorway, in the middle of the room, so you have to keep an eye out for me! Please contact my foster Mom, Beverly, and come and meet me. You won’t be sorry! 213-700-0353 or spingola@pacbell.net

Would you wait three weeks for the love of your life? That’s all it would take for Abby to figure out that you’re her best friend in the world.

Abby came to the shelter back in March with her sister Sweetums. Sweetums was pregnant and went into kitten foster while Abby was very reactive to people and went to socialization foster. When Abby had opened up and come out of her shell, she went back to the shelter to be adopted but all the sounds and smells overwhelmed her and she had to go back to foster. She’s now thriving in a hectic home with many other cats, kittens, dogs, turtles, snakes, fish, and people–including her sister!

Abby loves to be pet. If any part of your body gets near her she will rub against you like there is no tomorrow. You might get stuck petting Abby forever as she’s more likely to let you know she’s upset that you stopped petting her than anything else. She also loves to sit beside her people and lean against them, though she’s not a full-fledged lap cat just yet. She truly loves being around people, even though she’s so shy at first.

Abby gets along well with both dogs and cats, provided that they don’t chase her around. In her current foster home, she’s more likely to sit with the lazy dog than she is to stay near the high-energy cat who keeps chasing her to play!

Abby’s special circumstances mean that she will be a little bit… shall we say… upset for the first two or three weeks in her new home. She’s still desperate to be pet in new situations, but she’s also unsure of her surroundings and prefers to be pet with a towel-covered stick. Once she realizes the same people and animals will regularly be around (and won’t eat her), she’ll all of a sudden decide to explore her new home and your lap! What’s two or three weeks of shyness when you’ll have such a great cat for the rest of her life?

If you’re interested in a very sweet cat, or maybe two very sweet cats, Abby is currently being fostered with her sister Sweetums. They were apart for so long that they’re no longer bonded, but they do get along well together! If you’d like to meet sweet Abby or her conversational sister Sweetums, email their foster mom Dana at burbank.monster.kitties@gmail.com and she’ll help find a time that works for everyone.

Molly came to the shelter with her siblings in June. She was a little hissy and afraid of people but got to go to several foster homes to learn the ropes. Molly’s playful personality took a while to come out and she’s finally ready for her next chapter. She would do best in a home with other cats or a friendly dog to play with. Molly also has a very unique tail that is kinked in several places almost like a knot and beautiful white accents to her sleek tuxedo coat. In a new home, it may take her a few days to acclimate but with a few treats and toys she will relax quickly.

If you would like to meet Molly please contact her foster mom Kristen: kklegseth@gmail.com.

Skye is a beautiful teenager looking for her forever home. She was terrified at the shelter but her real personality blossomed quickly in her foster home. Skye is affectionate, playful, and talkative (especially when she’s hungry). She also does well with other cats and a mellow dog in the household. Sky is really the whole package!

If you would like to meet this sweet girl please contact her foster mom Kristen: kklegseth@gmail.com

Sweet, affectionate, playful! Jasper loves play times with his sister Amber and naps in the sun. Loves people, purrs up a storm and it’s a pleasure to have around. Very well behaved, super cute, a perfect kitten! Bonded with his sister Amber.

To learn more about this pair, please contact their foster mom, Barbara, at basiafifield@yahoo.com.

My name is Sein. My foster family says I am the most playful kitten they’ve ever fostered and one of the most affectionate too. I can be shy the first minute or two but I’m so curious and adventurous that overcomes my shy side. I love other cats and I’m used to dogs and small kids. I’m also a purring machine and I love to snuggle.

If you would like to meet me please contact my foster mom, Joseline, at 917-379-7905

Mango is a playful, fun-loving kitten! When it comes to toys and running around, those are his favorite things! As for humans though, he’s a little bit more shy. Mango needs someone with a little patience and who’s willing to work with him just a tiny bit more before he can trust you! He absolutely loves other cats and needs to go to a home with another cat or adopted with his sister Plum!

To learn more about Mango, please contact his foster daddy, Taylor, at tatorzimmerman@gmail.com.

Wendy was a little shy and skeptical when we first met her, but now she feels right at home. Like a teenager trapped in a kitten’s body, she thinks she is independent beyond her age and does not hesitate to let her brother and sister (or foster) know when they are bugging her. Wendy loves playing with the laser pointer and scratching post. She also loves her wet food so much that she sometimes eats more than her fair share – but her sister and brother don’t mind. During foster, Wendy took some time to warn up to our family, but with some patience, she would be a joy to have at any forever home!

To learn more about Wendy, please contact Laura at laurathomasian@gmail.com.

Maya was a stray and brought to the shelter with her three siblings. They were very scared so they went to a foster home. It only took a few days for Maya to feel safe and start acting like a playful kitten. She loves to run and play with her toys and loves jumping. She is a very sweet, cute black and white kitten with beautiful markings and long white whiskers. She will bring a lot of laughs and love to your home. She has only been around adults but should be fine with older children.

To learn more about Maya, please contact Bonnie at bonjiebonbon@aol.com.

Dale is a lovable and energetic boy who loves to run around and play with his favorite toy. He is very close to his brother Chip and loves to give him kisses. Not only does Dale give Chip kisses he will also let you know he loves you by giving you kisses!

To learn more about this silly boy, please call Wanda at 818-471-0073.

Hi! My name is Star and I’m a little bit shy at first but don’t let that fool you. I’m a rambunctious Chatty boy who loves to play! And don’t even think about being late for a meal or you’ll never hear the end of it. My favorite things are eating, playing with toys on strings, taking naps on fluffy beds in the sun, and chatting to you about my day. Because I’m a little bit shy, I need to go to a family that has owned at least one cat before. Also, I need to go to a home that has another playful cat to help me feel safe and and run around with all day. I may be a little hissy at first but I will warm up to any kitty in a few days.

I would love to meet you so please contact my foster mom, Caroline, at 858-663-9385 or come to the shelter on Saturday morning. I’ll be here waiting and playing. Meow!
