My story

You 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/   Hi everyone! My name is Chia and I am a handsome black kitty with gorgeous green eyes. If you’re looking for a lap cat, look no further than me. I would love to find a forever family that will sit on the couch, tap their lap, and let me crawl on their legs to get endless cuddles. I could truly sit in your lap for hours at a time, just enjoying the soft pets. I have lots of pics of me laying in my foster family’s lap because it’s truly my favorite place to be.  I absolutely love eye rubs, ear scratches, pets on the back, and tail pets. I don’t love belly rubs at the moment but I’m working on it with my foster family. I don’t love getting into my carrier and I often get stressed at the vet office, like most kitties. But as soon as I get back home, I immediately switch back to my usual happy lover cat vibe.  I’m a very calm kitty and would love to be part of a calm household so I would do best as an only pet with no kids. I would do really well with a person or family the works from home because I’d be the perfect lap work cat. But I’m also totally okay spending the day by myself, so I would also do great in a home with someone who works out of the house but is still willing to give me kisses and cuddles at night. Just think about how awesome it would be to get to come home to unconditional love after a hard day of work! If you’re interested in me, I’d love to tell you a bit more about myself. I am a huge lover of wet food, dry food, and churus. So basically any food! I also love my cat tree for playing and sleeping. My foster family sometimes finds me chilling in the bathroom sink in the cutest and most cuddly position. Trust me, I can get comfortable anywhere. Would you be willing to meet me and see if I would fit into your family? If you’re looking for a purr machine that would love nothing more than endless attention, I bet I would be the perfect cat for you. Apply for me, Chia, today! Chia is microchipped, up-to-date on all vaccinations, neutered, and litter box trained. Chia’s  adoption fee is $135. If you are interested in meeting Chia 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. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.   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! July 19, 2025, 12:59 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Chia, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
