My name is Chesapeake!

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/  

Chesapeake is a shy girl at first, but once she warms up in a new home with a new family that she can call her own, she promises to be an amazing cat.  She loves toys and has the playful energy of a kitten.  She will often throw toys to herself and catch them.  Toy mice, laser pointers and balls seem to be her favorites.  She enjoys the company of other cats and would do fine with gentle kids.  She hasn't been exposed to dogs, but given a proper introduction, she would probably do just fine.  Chesapeake really needs a patient family that will give her whatever time she needs to adjust to a new environment.  

Chesapeake currently resides at the Oswego PetSmart, 350 Fifth St in Oswego.  Come by and check her out.  She is patiently waiting for you.

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

Chesapeake's adoption fee is $135.  If you are interested in meeting Chesapeake, 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!
