My name is
Firefly!

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/  

Help!  I need help desperately! My foster mom thinks it’s appropriate to feed me can food only ONCE a day.  And I am hungry!  I promise, I don’t eat that much in one sitting, but my siblings are stealing all the food!  My dry food just isn’t cutting it.  But yeah, I guess I could survive on JUST dry food.  But how much fun is that?  

Despite my food demands, I’m a pretty easygoing girl.  I know there are a lot of opinions about calico attitude, but I promise I’m just a sweet little ball of fun.  I purr CONSTANTLY and do a ton of cute little rolls, somersaults, and stretches on the floor to show my love for you.  
My favorite things in life?  Food, of course.  And looking outside at birds and pretending I’m going to eat them.  I also love my cat siblings.  When I was little I think I was raised in a hoarder or multi-cat situation.  Some of my siblings aren’t really used to being petted by people
so they are really scared.  I felt that way for a while, but now I’m fine with my foster mom and dad, and even their little kids.  

My foster mom asked me what kind of home I want to live in.  I told her anywhere that will pet me, feed me, give me lots of love, and be a bit patient with me.  I would be perfectly happy with a lot of other cats.  But probably not really noisy kids- I would get scared and hide and never come out of my hiding place.  Other than that, I’m pretty adaptable and open to anything! 
 

Firefly is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed, and litter box trained.

Firefly'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 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!
