Here's what the humans have to say about me:
🍫❤️ NUTELLA IS A SWEET SENIOR GENTLEMAN READY FOR A SECOND CHANCE ❤️🍫
Introducing Nutella, a handsome, gentle senior boy with a heart as warm as his name. Estimated to be around 7 years old, Nutella came to us through a local grassroots rescue after a kind Good Samaritan cared for him for several months after he was found living outdoors. When that Good Samaritan sadly passed away, the rescue was contacted to step in on Nutella’s behalf and we’re so grateful they did.
Nutella arrived at ARF in mid-September and has been patiently waiting with us ever since, especially as we worked to get him the veterinary care he desperately needed. This sweet guy was suffering from severe dental disease, with widespread rot and decay causing constant pain. After a dental procedure which included the removal of 10 teeth, Nutella is finally feeling comfortable, pain-free and so much happier. His smile may not look like that of a typical cat, but Nutella doesn’t mind and neither do we. What matters most is that he can now eat, groom and enjoy life without hurting.
🌟 Senior Cats Need Love Too
Senior animals like Nutella are too often overlooked in favor of kittens or younger cats. But adopting a senior is one of the greatest gifts you can give and receive. Older cats typically come with calmer temperaments, established personalities and an unmatched sense of gratitude.
Nutella embodies all of that and more. He’s friendly, affectionate and deeply appreciative of every bit of kindness shown to him. His journey hasn’t always been easy, but he meets every day with softness and hope.
🏡 Nutella Is Ready for His Forever Home
Now that he’s healed and feeling like a brand-new cat, Nutella is ready to settle into a loving home away from street life. He's looking for a home where he can finally rest, recover and be cherished the way he always should have been.
If you’re looking for a companion who will thank you every day with gentle headbutts, warm purrs and quiet loyalty, Nutella is your boy. We invite you to come to meet him. He's the sweetest senior treat you’ll ever bring home!
The shelter is open Tuesdays through Fridays 3:30-6:30pm AND Saturdays & Sundays 1pm-4pm. No appointments are needed during those times. If you are not available during those times, special arrangements for a meet and greet may be able to be arranged by emailing arfcats@bereaanimalrescue.com. Thank you for considering the adoption of a shelter animal in need!

More about this rescue
Berea Animal Rescue Fund “ARF” began in 1987 as a small group of animal lovers started a ‘grassroots’ movement, recognizing the desperate housing and healthcare needs of homeless animals. Their efforts began in the southwest suburban Cleveland area, transforming a family’s garage into an animal "shelter."
The ARF movement grew when the city of Berea provided us a small building, utility costs included. In return, ARF would always have a cage open for the city’s stray animals. Now, after 20 years of service and thousands of success stories later ARF continues to save lives and make friends. ARF is operated in large part by a group of very dedicated volunteers who give their time and endless love to the shelter's furry residents.
Our next big goal is to position ourselves into a roomier facility…a more spacious home to the area's unwanted and abandoned animals. We believe no pet should be euthanized or left behind because lack of such a place. Our facility is overcrowded and outdated by today’s animal welfare standards. ONLY, through the generous support of the community and the dedication of our volunteers, can we make this dream a reality.
2007 was record breaking for ARF with both animals served and operating costs. Much help is needed!
The Berea Animal Rescue Fund “ARF” operates as a No Time Limit Shelter.
We are a 501(c) 3 Non Profit.
ARF's mission statement.... For the betterment of the lives of stray and abandoned animals, Berea’s Animal Rescue Fund, Inc. promises to:
Give loving care and companionship for as long as needed;
Provide shelter, food and medical necessities;
Seek quality homes through adoption programs;
Create public interest and awareness of animal rights and issues; and
Promote action and advocacy for all of the above.
