My name is Oreo!

Thanks for your interest in a pet from A.R.F.! If you see a pet here, they are still available for adoption and you should apply through our adoption application on our website at  https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/  

You'd never believe that for the entire 3 1/2 years of this sweet boy's life, he has only known the shelter as a home. 

Having never had a family of his own, Oreo is a lifetime shelter resident. 

However, just like the scrumptious cookie, Oreo's love is timeless, enjoyable & incomparable.
Oreo is an absolute sweetheart! With a biscuited paw in mid-air, this sweet boy will reach for you in hopes that you will oblige with a sweet kiss or gentle head rub. With the most precious head tilt, he will also gently nudge your face as proclamation of affection. 

Because of his heart for love, Oreo also swoons other cats & wants to be friends. Bravely introducing himself to every kitty he meets, he embraces them too with a gentle sniff & love-nudge. 

This sensitive sweetheart may take a little time to come out of his shell, yet once he feels safe, his show-of-affection ensues.

Oreo is looking for a calm, patient & loving home that will appreciate & acknowledge his passion for companionship. He absolutely wants a kind kitty friend who doesn't mind being loved - on. 

In a world of so much pain, everyone needs an Oreo. What a beautiful reminder he is that it's ok to be 'soft' & that kindness still matters

Oreo  is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations,  neutered, and litter box trained.

Oreo's adoption fee is $135.  If you are interested in meeting him, please fill out our Online Application today!  

Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will be able to contact you to arrange a meeting.

Thank you for considering a rescue pet from A.R.F.-Animal Rescue Foundation! We are  based in Wheaton, IL and conduct adoption events in the DuPage County area. If you are interested in adopting one of our pets, please submit an adoption application at https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/application/ 

Adoption appointments are scheduled based on the order of applications received, so submit your application early! 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 or schedule meetings until your application has been approved. More information about our adoption process can be found on our website here: https://www.arf-il.org/adopt/

As an all-volunteer, foster home-based organization, A.R.F. Animal Rescue Foundation does not have a facility where applicants can visit our animals. Please visit https://www.arf-il.org/events/ for a list of our upcoming adoption events. 

Thank you for choosing to adopt, not shop!
