Meet Pinkie
Pinkie is a 4-month-old ball of fluff with a big personality and an even bigger heart. With soft, silky fur and a tiny pink nose (the inspiration for his name), Pinkie is as charming as he is curious. He loves chasing crinkly toys, climbing everything in sight, and curling up in warm laps for his post-playtime naps. Equal parts playful and affectionate, Pinkie brings joy, laughter, and the occasional pounce to every room he enters. Whether he's exploring new corners or simply snoozing in the sun, this little kitten is already a pro at stealing hearts. Pinkie would do best with a similar aged feline friend who has a similar energy level. Pinkie would likely do best in a household with older children due to his energy level.
Please apply today.
We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why Pinkie 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!
Pinkie is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, neutered, and litter box trained.
Pinkie '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 him, 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.

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 all of 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 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!
