Dog sociability: Likely with proper introduction!
Cat sociability: Likely with proper introduction!
Kid sociability: Likely with proper introduction!
Likes: wrestling, naps and snuggles (together and separately), tunnels, wand toys, cardboard boxes, jingle, balls, and catnip fish! Windowstill perching
Dislikes: the vacuum cleaner, the 30 seconds between knowing they're getting fed and actually getting their food- blame it on the slow service!
Bio: These girls are sugar, and spice, and everything nice!
Lavagirl comes on strong as the confident and affectionate girl, and that she is! Don't sleep on Sharkgal, though, because although she may be a little skittish at first, she has grown to be quite the lover herself. Both are complete suckers for a good head massage and a soft napping spot. Lavagirl will win you over with her headbutts and mostly silent meows, while Sharkgal will get you with her tiny, slow biscuits and liquid state of relaxation. The purrs they both provide will melt you!
While they do love to lounge and snuggle, they also will keep you laughing with their play antics. They enjoy chasing and sneaking up on one another and have some great reactions when startled by the other. While they've never turned down a toy, they are also perfectly content to entertain each other.
These perfect girls are the best companions- affectionate, but independent. Great for any work from home or out of home owner!
The adoption fee is $250 for a bonded pair. 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!
