Burbank Animal Shelter: Foster a Kitten, Save a Life

The Volunteers of the Burbank Animal Shelter’s Kitten Foster Program (KFP) needs your help! We are recruiting new foster volunteers for the 2018 season. 

Each year hundreds of kittens end up at the Burbank Animal Shelter. The Shelter does not have the space to house them all. 

The Kitten Foster Program saves 200+ tiny kittens each year by providing care in temporary foster homes until they can be adopted. Many kittens are only a few days old and require bottle feeding and help learning how to eat on their own. Others are weaned and just need a safe home to live in until they reach adoption weight. 

We need you help to save all of them! Prior experience is not necessary, just a love of kittens! KFP will provide training, support, and all supplies. We are especially in need of fosters who can bottle feed! 

Please go to http://thevbas.org/kitten-foster-volunteer to learn more and sign up. Thank you!

We still want to contribute to the Burbank Animal Shelter by helping us donate $100 to their cause. From all our blog viewer's, (that's you) ad clicks, we've only got $13.56 more clicks to go before Google will send us a $100 check. We have $2.82 for May so far. It's not a lot, but every ad click helps us reach that goal. If you can't find the ads on your phone, use your laptop. Thank You!

So, what's up with Watchcat? Glad you asked. 

Below is a script of our Halloween episode we hope to complete before Halloween. We also will bring you more production news about this episode throughout the Summer months. Any feedback is helpful, let us know what you think of it and keep clicking those ads...

Watchcat Halloween Special. Draft 4/25/18

Ext. House - Night.

On the Front Porch,  Tommy a black cat is sitting licking his paw next to a Jack-O’-Lantern watching kids going by in their Halloween costumes.

                                    Tommy the Cat narration:

I really hate Halloween.  Some call us unlucky, others  like messing with black cats. It's the one holiday I try to stay away from, but not Mikey.

Tommy is interrupted by Mikey,  a kitten who is all dressed up in a cape costume.

Mikey:

       Beware Doers of Evil, I am,

     (Mikey strikes a heroic stand)
                    Pussy Willow!!

                                                                                                            

Tommy:                

                             (confused)                                            

                            Pussy what??

                                              Mikey:

         Pussy Willow.  

                        I’m gonna be Watchcat’s Sidekick.

                                      Tommy:

                        What’s a Watch Cat?

                                               Mikey:  

Tommy, You've never heard of Watchcat?!  

He’s the protector the neighborhood!

I once saw him beat up four robbers, all by himself. It was Incredible!

As Mikey keeps talking,  Tommy hears something, turns his head to look down the street.

                       He is the champion of the underdogs and

                       Kittens everywhere. when there’s trouble, 

                       He’s the crime fighting cat that comes out

                       of the shadows to help.

Cut to:  Two tall Bullies dress in skeleton costume‘s picking on a little kid dress in a shower curtain.

Bully skeleton #1,  The little kid reluctantly gives up his bag.
Bully skeleton #2 Snatches the bag from the kids hands.
                                           Bully skeleton #2:

They both laugh as the little kid runs away.

Oblivious to what’s going on around him. Watchcat Transformed, exits Porch.

Cut to: Ext. Alley- Night

The two bullies are sitting in the alley going through the bag of candy.
                                       Bully skeleton #1:
                This kid got all the good stuff.

The two bullies are suddenly covered by a giant shadow as they look up.

                                     Watchcat shadow: 

                                               Boo!!

The two bully scream in terror as they drop the bag of candies and run out of the alley.

Mikey still talking on the porch next to the Jack-o’-Lantern. Watchcat steps into frame behind  him, changing back into Tommy. Mikey doesn't even notice.
