Dog sociability: Possibly after proper introduction. TT might do well with a senior dog with low levels of energy.
Cat sociability: Likely after proper introduction.
Kid sociability: Possibly after proper introduction. TT would do well with older children who can give him some space.
Likes: All kinds of cat treats (mostly chicken-flavored).
Dislikes: TT doesn't seem to like tuna-flavored food.
Bio:
Ever wanted a feline friend that would fall asleep on your lap as you complete your assignment, or your project? TT is a cat who does not shy away from expressing all his affection towards his human. You will find him gently asleep in his routine nap, but if he senses your presence, he comes up to you to say his hello. As much as he loves to love a human, he loves to be loved. TT loves the warmth that a human can provide, and he will not hesitate to jump on your lap to demand the love that he very much deserves.
A curious boy, he also loves to explore various combinations of olfactory senses that he comes across, and should he find a home where a meal is frequently prepared at home, this would be the only time that TT would need to be separated from his human for the sake of his own safety, away from the potential hazards in the kitchen. To win TT's immediate friendship, perhaps the fastest route would be to tempt him with Temptations cat treats (bonus points for chicken-flavored treats). He loves the sound of a treat bag and a can opening, and after a good meal, he likes to take a nap near his human. Once done with his nap, TT likes to play with toy balls and chase them around the house. If he gets overly excited, however, he might transfer his energy towards his human and love bite, so he would do well with a human that can give him all the love and attention that he wants, but also the appropriate amount of space and nuanced handling to help him feel his best self at home. He would likely enjoy a kitty playmate to wrestle and play with!
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!
