Bon Jovi is an independent male tabby. He is very friendly and will come to greet you when you enter a room. He loves being brushed and petted on his back and has a quiet, gentle nature. Bon Jovi’s idea of fun is to chase a mouse toy around the room, entertaining himself for quite a while. He also likes people watching and will spend time staring down the dog on the other side of the gate. Bon Jovi enjoys sitting next to you on the bed or observing the action from his perch. Wherever you are, he will be close by. Bon Jovi is very low maintenance, being comfortable with his brother or hanging out on his own. He has a quiet little meow that is only heard when it’s time to eat, and he does love his treats!
Ron Jon is a mildly shy young male kitty that might take a minute to warm up to you, but he is ready to play once he earns your trust. Ron Jon is friendly and welcomes getting back scratches. While not especially fond of getting picked up, he is the first to cuddle next to you on the bed or couch. His absolute favorite activity is chasing the laser light and playing with string toys. Ron Jon is a very healthy eater who enjoys his treats and wet food. He is an independent young cat that will seek affection when needed but is not an attention seeker. He is comfortable finding his own spot when resting. He is generally cool, calm, and collected while sitting back and watching the action. Ron Jon and Bon Jovi are typical brothers; they get along and rub noses most of the time but watch out for the occasional wrestling match! Overall, these two have a lot to offer in both affection and entertainment. They both do well with their puzzle toys for hiding treats.
Dog sociability: Yes!
Cat sociability: Yes!
Kid sociability: Possibly!
Likes: Back scratches, wet food
Dislikes: Getting picked up (Bon Jovi tolerates it more!)
Their adoption fee is $150. 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 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!
