Meet Xylophone – The Fluffiest Explorer with a Heart of Gold!
Xylophone isn’t just a pretty face—she’s unimaginably soft, irresistibly fluffy, and full of charm. This sweet girl adores gentle pets and will happily melt into your hands for some affection. But don’t let her calm, cuddly side fool you—she’s also a curious adventurer who loves to explore every nook and cranny of her surroundings.
Xylophone came to our rescue from Chicago Animal Care and Control after being abandoned in a park with 16 other rabbits. Despite her rough start, she’s proven to be incredibly resilient and full of love. She’s an expert with her litter box, loves to socialize, and is always excited for her favorite snacks—especially fresh greens like cilantro and plenty of quality hay.
She’s not too picky and has shown she's comfortable around respectful dogs and older children. Xylophone is simply looking for a loving home—any shape or size—where she can be safe, adored, and free to show off her playful, affectionate nature.
Could you be the happy ending she’s been waiting for?
Dog sociability: Very curious about dogs!
Cat sociability: Possibly with proper introduction!
Kid sociability: Yes!
Likes: Greens and veggies of all kinds, also enjoys hay, pellets (really anything that involves eating). She likes her space but also enjoys pets and loves to explore!
Dislikes: Being picked up/carried - She is a strong independent woman; she'll get where she needs to go by herself thank you very much!
The adoption fee is $50. All rabbits are 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 shelter
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!
