Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at  https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/  

Duchess is a 3-year-old longhair Momma Cat whose kittens were adopted last year.  She was also happily adopted last July but recently returned to ARF since her owner became ill.  Since she was let outside in her previous home, Duchess developed an aversion to litter boxes, so her new foster has trained her to wear a harness and leash to explore their backyard and perform her necessary duties.  If you feel like having an indoor/outdoor (on harness) kitty, or "cat-dog", she is a very delightful, talkative, intelligent little girl.  Duchess is quite athletic and, while not a lap-sitter, if you sit on the floor she will curl up next to you for extended periods of petting.  We are not sure if she would adjust to having any other pet; when encountering a dog nearby, she has been wary and wanted to leave the area to go inside but not try to approach the dog.

Duchess is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed and partially litter box trained.

Her adoption fee is $135.  If you are interested in meeting  Duchess, please fill out our Online Application today!  

Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will be able to contact you to arrange a meeting.

Thank you for considering a rescue pet from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation! We are  based in Wheaton, IL and conduct adoption events in the DuPage County area. If you are interested in adopting one of our pets, please submit an adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ 

Adoption appointments are scheduled based on the order of applications received, so submit your application early! Submitting an application does not commit you to any animal but does get you a head start with the adoption approval process. Due to a high volume of applications, we are often unable to respond to questions or schedule meetings until your application has been approved. More information about our adoption process can be found on our website here: https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/

As an all-volunteer, foster home-based organization, A.R.F. Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit our animals. Please visit https://www.arf-il.org/events/ for a list of our upcoming adoption events. 

Thank you for choosing to adopt, not shop!
