Meet Dobie
Do you want a cuddle bug? Then I’m the kitten for you! My foster mom thinks I’m a charmer because I immediately start purring whenever she picks me up or pets me. And I may be part-bird because I also like to chirp when I talk with her. My favorite activities are playing with my toy mice and stuffed sushi roll, then climbing to the top of the cat tower, looking out the window, and taking one of my many naps. My hilarious sleeping positions make her laugh, and she takes lots of pictures of me. You will, too! Get ready for me sleeping on the bed with you – I even like to get under the covers like a human!
We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs! There are several reasons why Dobie 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 "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!
Dobie is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations,
neutered
, and litter box trained.
Dobie'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 Dobie, please fill out our

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!
