Animal Shelter details for ARF Illinois Please visit ARF Illinois and adopt a homeless pet
You have reached the shelter page for ARF Illinois. ARF Illinois is located in Wheaton, Illinois. If you have information to add or update for ARF Illinois, please click here and let us know.
Animal Rescue Foundation – IL ARF is a NO-kill, non-profit animal rescue organization established in 1985. We are an all volunteer based group dedicated to finding loving homes for the abandoned, and abused animals of our community. Animals waiting for adoption are in temporary care homes licensed by the state of Illinois. ARF frequently will take in the animals that other rescue group will not because the animal needs additional medical attention. This is part of our philosophy in rescue. We rescue healthy animals and adopt them out to loving homes in order to have the funding available to help the ones that are not so perfect. You’ll witness our dedication to the no so perfect animals when you see a dog listed on our website who was given a second chance in life by having his badly injured leg amputated or his heartworm disease treated or a kitten who would not survive unless it had a great deal of medical attention. This philosophy also means the animal will need to spend additional time in a temporary care home and fortunately we have great volunteers who are willing to take this extra time for the animal.
ARF receives NO government funding. Private donations, as well as adoption fees, keep ARF prepared to help animals in need.
