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/
My name is Rushmore and I am a friendly and talkative guy. I have tons of personality. I love chasing the ping pong ball and the laser pointer. After a play session, I will sit on your lap and take a nap. I like a nice brushing that feels like a gentle massage, especially on the top of my head. I close my eyes and relax.
At one time I was a stray, but since I was not claimed by my former family, I would love to become a part of a new family! I like people a lot and did you know that I give hugs? I also make biscuits.
I love sitting high on a cat tree in order to people-watch in PetSmart. When a dog walks by, I get scared and angry at the same time. I will require a home without dogs. I really like my chosen people and I do not want to share them with cats, either. My home will be just me and my human family!
You can visit me at A.R.F.’s cat center at the Wheaton PetSmart. I would love to get to know you and to see if we are a good match for each other.
Rushmore is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, neutered, and litter box trained.
Rushmore's adoption fee is $135. If you are interested in meeting him, 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!
