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/   Hi everyone! This is Burton checking in. I’m a silky black and white cat and I am ready to find my forever home! I am the most perfect lap cat who would literally just sit in your lap, criss-cross-applesauce, all day long if you’d let me. Anytime my foster mom has a spare minute, I love climbing into her lap and looking around before snuggling in for a long relaxation session! You can see a bunch of pics on this page of me being adorable while sitting in my foster mom’s lap. I also have a huge love for any type of wet food. When you look at me, I have the most brillant green eyes that are sure to stun whoever looks at me. I am really looking for any home that can give me much-needed and much-wanted pets every day! I would do best in a home with only adults because I can sometimes get a little nippy with sudden movements or when I’m being picked up. I wasn’t treated very nicely by my first owners and I get scared when I’m lifted into the air, which is why being picked up isn’t my favorite thing to do. I know it sounds weird that I love climbing into laps but don’t love being held up but I promise that I still crave allllll of your attention. I am great at being convinced to go places with just a little bit of wet food or Churus, so my foster mom hasn’t had any trouble getting me to go to the vet with her. If you want to meet me, please stop by the Naperville PetSmart or fill out a form on the ARF website today! Burton is microchipped, up-to-date on all vaccinations, neutered, and litter box trained. Burton’s adoption fee is $135. If you are interested in meeting Burton, 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!
