Dog sociability: They haven't met any yet but could likely get along after proper introduction.
Cat sociability: Yes, these two grew up together with their sister and would likely be fine with other social cats after proper introduction.
Kid sociability: Likely after proper introduction but they have not met any yet. They might be shy at first, so they'll just need some time to warm up.
Likes: Wet food, full-body rubs, cuddling, and being up high
Dislikes: Being physically restricted (held in the air for long stretches of time, restraining their legs, being in carriers)
Bio:
Synopsis is a social butterfly, who absolutely thrives on attention. He has white back paws and a big white stripe down his belly. If anyone is playing, Synopsis will 100% be involved. When it's time to chill, he takes up his post purring as a lap cat.
Blurb is the biggest (and shyest!) of the bunch, with a big white spot right above his heart! He loves to explore and hide, and once he warms up, he loves to run around playing with his brother and curling up for naps.
Together, Blurb and Synopsis are the perfect blend of playful energy and loving companionship, and they can't wait to find their happily ever after in a forever home!
The adoption fee is $150 for the 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!
