Description:
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/ Meet Calypso! He’s a 7 yr old orange tabby cat that loves nothing more than food and a good place to nap. He’s an independent spirit that prefers to approach others first, but once he gets comfortable, personal space is not in his cat vocabulary. He loves to cuddle head to head with his owner and bathe in whatever sunlight he can find. He’s experienced a bit of food insecurity as a former stray, so he would do best in a patient and loving household. It’s recommended that you don’t leave any food out or he will find a way to get extra helpings. While he can warm up to other cats, he would do best in a home where he can be the center of attention. This would also be beneficial because he may try to take food from your other cats if not separated. On the bright side, he is food motivated, so you can get him to do just about anything with an edible offering. One adorable trait of Calypso is that he’s more of a howler than a meower. He is an orange cat through and through. He isn’t combative and will give you indicators that he is uncomfortable. If you’re interested in Calypso, please reach out! Calypso is microchipped, up-to-date on all vaccinations, neutered, and litter box trained. Calypso's adoption fee is $135. If you are interested in meeting Calypso, 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!
