Marnie was found on the expressway, causing a gnarly leg wound. Luckily, she was found by a wonderful cat rescuer, became an OCAT, and is now all healed up and ready for a forever home!
She is super sweet and a ton of fun, but Marnie needs support in directing her wild energy for good instead of evil. Marnie’s person will help her continue to learn that non-food (like wires and the bathroom scale) is not for kitties to eat, and food (like cat food and delicious treats) IS for kitties to eat!
Marnie loves playing with her two foster siblings and is great about playing on her own after she wears them both out. She also enjoys yelling at birds and lounging in the sun. Although she's not at all a lap cat, Marnie is very sweet, will purr loudly when pet, and likes to give kisses.
Marnie is looking for an experienced pet owner, because she can’t wait to keep you on your toes. If your new year resolution includes more movement, what better way to do it than by following an adorable kitten around trying to keep her from committing crimes?
Dog sociability: Possibly with slow introduction calm, cat-friendly dog!
Cat sociability: Yes!
Kid sociability: Not the best match
Likes: Playing, yelling at birds, wrestling with cat friends, mischief & chaos, having new experiences, giving kisses, Cat TV.
Dislikes: Eating alone, being held for too long, picky about cat food!
The 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!
