Meet Kipling
Kipling - or “Kippy” as his foster mom calls him - is such a sweet boy. He likes to be held like a baby and is extremely gentle with his people. Kipling would love to go to a home with his best buddy, Jax. Both boys have an amazing temperament and are some of the snuggliest boys that their foster mama has ever seen! Kipling loves to play and explore new places! He has a special request for a window with good bird watching so that he can show you how he chirps at them!
We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why Kipling 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 potential "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!
Kipling is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, neutered, and litter box trained.
Kipling's adoption fee is $165. If you are interested in meeting Kipling, 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 contact you to arrange a meeting.

If a cat or dog is on our website, it is still available for adoption but might have other applicants. If you find yourself interested in one of our animals, submit a no-commitment application immediately. 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 until your application has been approved in approximately 3-5 business days.
We do not schedule meetings until you have an approved application.
A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit our animals. The majority of our dogs and cats are brought to adoption events by our volunteers. We invite everyone to come to our events, but we give priority to pre-approved applicants.
If you’re invited to meet an animal:
- Plan to arrive on time (or early), as we cannot hold animals for any reason.
- All human household members and dogs (if adopting another dog), must be present in order to be considered as a potential adopter.
Thank you for your interest and cooperation!
