Bio: Meet Marshmallow—affectionately known as Princess Marshmallow for her gentle and friendly personality. She’s the perfect indoor bunny who loves having enough space to roam freely on carpeted floors or yoga mats. Marshmallow takes “floor is lava” seriously and prefers firm, padded ground with traction, she does not like to slip around and we dont want her to get hurt! She will make you laugh with her excited attitude for treats. She will not hesitate stepping on you to give her more leverage to get that pellet out of your hand!
She’ll often come out to observe you curiously, periscoping to sniff out more hay/pellets, or hopping over for head scratches when you sit at her level. She’s calm around new people and sounds, greeting visitors with cautious curiosity. She loves when new friends stick to feeding her pellets and giving her head scratches instead of carrying her (she’ll hop away grumpily). Marshmallow thrives in a cozy, predictable environment where she can nap peacefully during the day and soak up attention in the mornings and evenings—with a few check-ins for mid-day cuddles, of course. She’s the best work-from-home companion, content to lounge nearby but always ready to remind you when it’s time for pets or play.
Dog sociability: Possibly with proper introduction!
Cat sociability: Possibly with proper introduction!
Kid sociability: Possibly with proper introduction!
Likes: Marshmallow loves her pellets followed by some gentle head strokes. She loves lettuce as well. She likes resting in darker corners with a wall pressing up against her on at least one side (usually her fluffy butt) but when she's feeling particularly social and comfortable, she sprawls out in the open.
Dislikes: She will let you know if she doesn't like something by moving away from you, grunting, or thumping. She's not a fan of getting picked up and she doesn't quite like body strokes as much as her head strokes/massages.
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!
