Dog sociability: Likely with proper introduction and cat-friendly pup!
Cat sociability: Yes, with proper introduction! Doesn't love to romp around with little energetic kittens, but can co-exist or be-friend a chill kitty.
Kid sociability: Likely with proper introduction!
Likes: Being pet, being chased, string toys, lap cuddles
Dislikes: having her nails clipped
Bio:
Josie is the smartest one in the room and she knows it. She saunters in, tail swishing, and gives you a tiny meow that you find cute, but in reality is her uttering a truth beyond human comprehension. If she wants something-like pets, cuddles, or treats-she FLOPS herself down hard and rolls back and forth while giving you upside-down heart eyes. This signature move is known to the scientific community as "The Floppy Joe and she knows no human can resist it. She sees humans as her snuggle vehicles, her pet dispensers, her adorable and plucky best friend in an adventure movie casting Josie in the main role (you may qualify as the sassy talking animal companion). If you are looking for a co-star, her agent is currently accepting applications.
Josie loves to be chased from room to room. You'll make eye contact across the hall, like enemy spies in an action movie. She'll lower herself ever so subtly as you adjust your stance. Neither of you dare blink. In a flash, you launch forward, forcing her to scramble against the hardwood floor and rocket up a cat tree where she will now begin hunting you in turn.
Josie is a cuddle connoisseur: if she sees an open lap, you're wrong because blink and she's in it. If you try to shift, she will pretend not to notice while giving you some HARD side-eye. In doing so, she reminds you that societies have rules and evacuating the snuggle position is Just Not Done. In return, Josie grants you the blissful relief of canceling social obligations. You wouldn't disturb such a peaceful-looking cat just to see loved ones, would you? Of course not, so please return to your fully-horizontal position and don't bother her over such petty matters as "it's been months since I've seen my family or "I was planning to eat something today.
Should her agent pass along your application, you'll find that Josie is a one-of-a-kind girl you've been waiting for all along.
The adoption fee is $100. All cats are up to date on vaccines, spayed/neutered, and microchipped.

Our Adoption Center is open every Wednesday – Sunday in Bucktown at 2144 N Wood Street, but we are reachable by email 7 days/week!
Our Adoption Center has adoptable dogs. Adoptable cats and bunnies live in foster homes. We work on a first come basis. We are limiting the amount of visitors on site, so you may be asked to be added to the waitlist when you arrive. We require all family members of the household (including any resident dogs with current vaccination records) to be present at the introduction. We recommend being prepared to adopt same-day as the dogs at our Adoption Center are available for direct adoption and we do not “hold” them for specific applicants.
You can view which dogs are currently at our Adoption Center by selecting “adoption center” in the attributes tab on our Available Pets page.
ADOPTION APPOINTMENTS: For dogs, cats, and bunnies living in foster care our Adoption Team will set up adoption appointments with potential adopters after an application is submitted. We do not have cats, bunnies, or guinea pigs living at our Adoption Center (only dogs!)

More about this rescue
One Tail at a Time (OTAT) started as a backup plan for dogs that were not getting adopted or rescued by other groups in the area shelters. Over the years we have experienced consistent and steady growth: we are among the top transfer partners for dogs at Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC) and for cats at several open intake shelters in Indiana, we have a robust transport program in which dogs are rescued from high-kill shelters in southern states, and we are even able to pull dogs from a rescue partner in Tulum, Mexico to help them get adopted in the Chicagoland area. Our growth has been, and continues to be, due to the overwhelming support received from our community.
Members enable us to take on complex medical cases and continue to grow our annual intake numbers. Volunteers have continued to line up to foster and care for dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs, to take on leadership roles, and to help build One Tail at a Time into a well-known and respected rescue organization in Chicago and beyond.
Due to our continuous growth and immensely supportive community of members, volunteers, fosters, adopters, and more, we have evolved into the One Tail at a Time Cooperative!
