Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Dog sociability: Yes, after proper introduction. She doesn't mind them as long as they respect her space.
Cat sociability: Yes - she loves other cat-friendly cats and needs a cat friend in the home.
Kid sociability: She has lived with older children and has been around younger children as well. As long as they are respectful - she does great.
Likes: Amoeba really enjoys the affection and play of humans and cats. She loves chin scritches, head pets, and being swaddled in blankets with Churu treats. Amoeba loves feather wand toys, spring toys, and carrying little toy balls around in her mouth like a dog would. She loves exploring and cruising around all over the house.
Dislikes: Amoeba does not love the vacuum, and she doesn't love being over handled. She will let you know politely when she's tiring of being handled.
Bio:
Amoeba has had to overcome a lot in her short life, and she never ceases to rise to the occasion. Sure, she's a special baby wearing a diaper, and her gait is a little wonky and she is missing an eye, but those things don't slow her down a bit! She's an extra special kitten with a heart of gold. She's snuggly and sweet while also having a fierce and fun side. She's the bravest cat we've ever known and will make the most loyal companion for the right home. She's looking for a patient and loving family that will support her through her ongoing medical issues to help her thrive in her forever home.
The adoption fee is $150. 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!
