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/
Trisha is a black-and-white tuxedo kitten dressed for a party and ready to host it herself! This little lady is bursting with energy and absolutely lives to play. Feather wands? Yes. Crinkle balls? Absolutely. Your shoelaces? Her personal favorite.
She’s also quite the conversationalist. Trisha loves to chat about her day, your day, the weather, her toys, and probably her plans for world domination. If you’ve ever wanted a kitten who greets you with enthusiastic commentary and keeps you company with sweet little meows, Trisha is your girl.
As for an off switch… we’re not entirely sure she has one. We suspect she powers down to recharge when no one is looking, but the moment people appear, she’s back in action—zooming, pouncing, and inviting you to join the fun. She thrives on attention and interaction and would do wonderfully in a home ready to embrace her playful spirit.
After a long play session, she may reward you with cuddles (once she decides you’ve earned it). Beneath all that boundless energy is a loving kitten who wants to be part of everything you do.
She is great with children, with a slow intro she might be ok with a cat friendly dog. As far as getting along with another cat, it is hard to say at this point. She really hisses a lot at every new cat that she has met. She has not been given enough time to do a slow introduction with cats to see if long-term she would be fine with a feline friend.
If you’re looking for a lively, affectionate, and endlessly entertaining companion, Trisha is ready to steal your heart—and maybe your socks.
We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why Trisha 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!
Trisha is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed , and litter box trained.
Trisha '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 Trisha , 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!
