Meet Pop

Pop is an adorable black kitten who is the whole package.  He is SO SWEET, playful, affectionate.  He loves playing with the other foster kittens in the home.  He is the first one to walk up to visitors to the home.  He has the cutest little meow and at night, he just wants to snuggle up against you.  He has not been introduced to a dog, but likely would do well with a proper introduction.  Pop will dazzle you with how high he can jump for toys.  Pop would really like to have a companion to play with.  Maybe you would consider adopting a second kitten?  Perhaps you have another cat at home looking for a playmate?  Or maybe you work from home and have extra time to play with him to keep him entertained?  He's a great little guy who would be a great addition to any family.  

We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why Pop would do well 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!

Pop is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, 

neutered

, and litter box trained.

Pop's adoption fee is $165. If you are interested in meeting Pop, 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.

All pets adopted from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation include the following as part of their adoption fee:

  • Spay/neuter or a certificate for a low-cost spay/neuter when medically recommended
  • Microchip and registration, a permanent identification to reunite lost pets with their owners
  • Initial de-worming and flea and tick treatment
  • Age-appropriate testing for heartworm/FIV-FELV
  • Age-appropriate vaccines
  • Pre-adoption medical exam
  • A certificate for a free healthy pet exam at one of A.R.F.’s participating veterinarians within 7 days of adoption
  • Offer for a no-risk 30 day free trial with Trupanion pet medical insurance

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!
