My name is Mango!

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/  

Mango is a very pretty and usually sweet kitten with exceptionally soft silky fur.

She loves playing with her toys, springs, sparkle balls, fuzzy caterpillars and especially you.  This darling has a charming sweet meow and is exceptionally lively.  If you call her, she comes running and meows so sweetly your heart melts!

If playing/fighting with your hand or foot, she will use her teeth to gently chomp on you.  Never draws blood, if she does bite too hard I say ow, and she softens her grip. Mango definitely just wants to play.

Silky Mango is companionable with her humans and would  be really happy if she can bond with her particular human or a family.  She really loves her pets and will settle in your lap or beside you when she’s done with playing while purring loudly. 

She gets along well with other cats or kittens and loves to play chase and tag, especially with her sister. While not bonded with her sister (Churro), if you’re thinking of adopting two kittens, they would go well with each other.

If you want a feisty and sweet loving feline friend, then Mango will make a happy addition to your family, or a single person. Loving, friendly, affectionate, playful and really sweet! The perfect kitten.

We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why Mango 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!

Mango is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed, and litter box trained. Mango’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. 

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!
