Meet Chelsea
Hi, I’m Chelsea! I’m about 13 weeks old, and I may just be the prettiest little girl you’ll ever meet!
I had a bit of a rough start. I was found all alone outside, and when I first arrived at my foster home, I wasn’t quite sure what to think. All the new people, kittens, and big cats were a little overwhelming, so I spent my first couple of days being shy and letting everyone know I needed some space
But look at me now! I’ve discovered that people are pretty wonderful, and I absolutely LOVE getting attention from my foster mom. I’ve also learned how fun it is to be a kitten! I love playing with my foster kitten friends and even the adult cats. I’m not bothered by the resident Chihuahua either, I’m pretty brave when I want to be!
One of my favorite things to do is sit on the bathroom vanity every morning and supervise my foster mom while she gets ready for work. Someone has to make sure she’s doing it right, after all!
I’m sweet, playful, curious, and becoming more affectionate every day. I’m looking for a forever family who will be patient with me, give me lots of love, and let my personality continue to blossom.
If you think I might be your girl, come meet me! I have a feeling we could be best friends
We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why
Chelsea
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!
Chelsea
is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations,
spayed
, and litter box trained.
Chelsea
'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 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!
