See Hoglet’s HomepageGo to our official websiteYou can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.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/   Hoglet is part of our “baby animals” litter.  A “hoglet” is none other than a baby hedgehog!  She can best be described as a tiny tornado of fun wrapped in soft fur and whiskers. She specializes in surprise pounces, high-speed zoomies, and dramatic nap flops. Her hobbies include chasing her siblings, attacking shoelaces, and providing endless entertainment.   Hoglet is looking for a forever home where she can be her goofy, cuddly self. Bonus points if you have toys, snuggles, and maybe a window where she can judge the outside world.  She loves naps in the sun or in a nice warm lap.  She needs lots of pets, especially the kind where you pet her entire head and gently tug on her ears.    If you're ready for endless companionship and cuddles, she just may be the kitten for you!  Since Hoglet is so little, she would definitely need to go to a home with another kitten or cat that can match her energy.  Her sisters, Hatchling and Gosling would be a perfect match. She would also do great with a companion of the doggie variety and does great with gentle kids of any age. We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs!  There are several reasons why Hoglet 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! Hoglet is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed, and litter box trained.   Hoglet'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 Hoglet, 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!
