See Paradise’s HomepageGo to our official websiteYou can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact MF for more information about this pet.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/   According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, Paradise is defined as "a place or state of bliss, felicity or delight." While it defines my name, unfortunately, I have yet to experience it. I'm Paradise. A beautiful, sweet & gentle young lady who's had a rough beginning. Myself & several others were rescued from terrible living conditions — thankfully A.R.F rescued us & we're all very healthy! Shortly thereafter, I was adopted by a family that unfortunately wasn't for me. I was very overwhelmed by the dog & noise & just couldn't find confidence to be 'myself'. Thankfully, I was kindly returned to A.R.F. Though my humans at A.R.F take fantastic care of me, I really, really want to go home. My name is the life I want, need & deserve to. I really hope that it happens soon. When will I have my very own Paradise? I'm ok w/ other cats, preferably one that will respect my boundaries when I'd like to be alone. No dogs or young kids, please. Otherwise, I love snuggling my friends, head rubs, toys & Churu! Maybe your home is my furrever Paradise?!"   Paradise is currently located at the Aurora PetSmart. Come by and give her some pets!  She wants all that you can give her.   Paradise is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, spayed, and litter box trained. Paradise’s adoption fee is $135. If you are interested in meeting Paradise, 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!
