Star

My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.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/   Star is a lively little girl who is all about playtime and snuggles! She loves chasing toys, pouncing on shadows, and turning every moment into a fun adventure. This spunky little lady has endless energy and a heart full of love, making her the perfect companion for anyone ready to share toys, laughter, and cozy cuddle sessions. She has already mastered the art of the pounce, the sneak-attack cuddle, and the irresistible “feed me” stare.  Her absolute favorite activity is to reach her paws under the door to attack whatever lays on the other side.  Laser toys are her next favorite thing.  She just can’t seem to get enough. When she’s not busy zooming around, Star loves to curl up for gentle cuddles and show off her sweet purr. She can usually be found in her cat tree or napping up in a ray of sunshine, but that's only if your lap isn't available.  She loves being carried around and spoiled rotten with all of the attention that she can get.  Star is a chatty girl and is always ready for some great conversation. Star doesn't love to be alone for long periods of time.  A family that is home often, or a family with a playful cat or dog to keep her company would be ideal.  She would do great in any kind of home environment and does well with cats, dogs and gentle kids of any age. We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs!  There are several reasons why Star 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! Star is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed, and litter box trained.   Star'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 Star, 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. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.   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! October 5, 2025, 10:33 am

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Star, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
