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/  

Meet Thimble! Thimble is a darling kitten with a heart as big as his appetite! Independent but affectionate, he is the kind of guy who is happy doing his own thing-until he hears the sound of treats or dinner being served. Then it is game on! 

This clever little boy is a big fan of want toys, mouse toys, and anything that moves (including the occasional unlucky bug- he is a an excellent exterminator!). He gets along wonderfully with other cats and dogs, making him a great fit for a variety of homes. 

Every explorer needs a sidekick and Thimble is no exception. He would be required to go home with another kitten to help in his adventures. If you are looking for a playful friend who is always down for a snack, Thimble is ready to make your heart (and treat stash) his forever home! 

We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs!  There are several reasons why Thimble would do good with a friend, including:

-Two kittens keep each other entertained - they will play and get all their energy out on each other in time for snuggles with you!

-Having two kittens to play with each other prevents "I'm lonely and bored" behavioral issues.

-Watching two kittens wrestle is quite possibly the cutest thing you will ever see.

-The kittens will teach each other "how to cat" and learn to be more social with humans and people.

-You'll save two lives instead of one!

Thimble is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, neutered , and litter box trained.

Thimble 's adoption fee is $165.  Please note A.R.F. does not approve applications for any kitten under 6 months of age to families that live outside of Illinois and/or beyond 100 miles of Wheaton or Glen Ellyn, IL.

If you are interested in meeting Thimble, please fill out our  online kitten adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ today!

Once your application has been approved, an A.R.F. 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!
