Meet Gosling
Gosling is an adorable bundle of sunshine and silliness! This little lady is always up for a game of chase with her siblings, a tumble with her favorite toys, or just showing off her signature zoomies across the room.
She has a curious mind, a sweet purr, and a crazy personality to go with it. Gosling loves making new friends (both two-legged and four-legged), and she’s an expert at turning any moment into a playtime party.
Whether she’s batting at feathers, sneaking into your sock drawer, or curling up in your lap for a snuggle, Gosling will keep your days full of laughter and love. This little nugget has a gentle spirit and a loving heart, making her the perfect companion for anyone looking to add some joy and affection to their life. She’s good with other pets and people of all ages, and she’s eager to find her forever home where she can be spoiled and adored.
Since Gosling has been surrounded by her siblings her entire life, she would need a forever home with another dog or cat friend so that she doesn’t get lonely. Don’t have one? That’s ok! Gosling has two adorable ginger sisters, Hatchling and Hoglet, that she would love to spend her forever with. She would also do well with a kitten from another litter. She’s not picky!
We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why Gosling 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!
Gosling is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed, and litter box trained.
Gosling'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 Gosling, 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!
