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/
Hi! My name is Valentine, and I’m a 2-year-old tortoiseshell domestic shorthair. I would love to tell you a little more about myself. I absolutely adore being around people and am happiest when I’m spending time with my humans. Whether you’re relaxing on the couch or moving around the house, I’ll be nearby keeping you company. I love when people do puzzles because I quite enjoy hanging out with them and knocking a couple pieces off of the table at times. It’s so much fun and my humans find it so funny.
I’m also a playful girl who loves chasing laser pointers and wand toys. I’m always ready for a good game so I would love a home that is willing to have a bunch of toys around the house for me to play with! After some fun play sessions, I’m perfectly content hanging out with my favorite people and soaking up attention.
Because I like being the center of attention, I’m looking for a home where I can be the only pet. In the past, some other cats have been mean to me so I would need to be the only cat in the household. Dogs can make me nervous so I would do best in a home without other dogs or cats. In return, I promise to give my whole heart to my people and be your loyal companion. If you’re looking for a friendly, playful tortie who loves human company, I would love to meet you!
Valentine is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed, and litter box trained. Valentine’s adoption fee is $135. If you are interested in meeting her, please fill out our Online Application today! Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will 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!
