Dog sociability: Possibly a calm, quiet dog with proper introduction!
Cat sociability: Possibly with proper introduction! She originally came with another kitty but they are no longer friends. She may be open to another feline companion, but would do well as a solo cat.
Kid sociability: Possibly older children with proper introduction!
Likes: Socks, ribbon wand, rubbing against feet, the idea of getting to drink milk (just the idea, I don't let her)
Dislikes: Sudden loud noises
Bio: Gumbo is a sweetie, a beautiful house panther and tuxedo in one! My favorite thing about her is her hilarious hunting and playing with socks (and sometimes even pot holders), she really gets into it and it's adorable. She loves pets and scritches and will run up for them and purr for you. Sometimes she's totally self-sufficient curled up in another room, and sometimes she'll be a couch buddy or work from home officemate trying to get all up on your laptop. She loves to rub against my feet, and though she rarely sits on me it's clear that she and I are good buddies and she's easy to love.
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!
