My name is Fancy Nancy!

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/  

Meet Fancy Nancy

True to her literary namesake, this petite orange lady has a flair for the fancy things in life—just in a much quieter, bashful way. Fancy Nancy is the most shy of the Kid Lit Litter, but don’t let that fool you: she’s incredibly sweet, very playful, and full of gentle charm.

Nancy adores spending time with her mama and siblings and feels most confident when she’s with her people (feline or human). She loves soft pets and will happily say a polite little hello once she warms up—very bonjour, very merci. She’s also a big fan of TV time, especially when fish are involved (clearly a cultured viewer).

Though she’s a bit timid, she’s definitely not pretentious—just a dainty girl who prefers a slower, cozier pace. Fancy Nancy is great with kids and other cats, and while she hasn’t met dogs yet, she’s open to learning if introductions are done gently.

Because she thrives with her siblings, Fancy Nancy would love to go home with one of them so she can keep practicing her playful pounces and her fancy footwork.

We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why  Fancy Nancy   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 potential "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!

Fancy Nancy is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations,  spayed , and litter box trained.

Fancy Nancy 's adoption fee is $165. If you are interested in meeting  Fancy Nancy , please fill out our online kitten adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ today!

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!
