Tomato, or as we like to call her:
- Tomato Caprese Panini
- Tomato Potato
- Sweet Tomato
- Mario Tomato Potato Caprese Girl
Tomato is a high energy lovebug who loves to play, enjoys tomato soup (a bit of warm water with wet food), and all your attention. She's a soft, sweet girl who can settle down and cuddle later in the day, but if she hasn't had enjoy play in the day, may want to crawl into your skin (in the most affectionate way). While we don't know if Tomato has been with other cats, dogs, or kids in the past, she likely would do very well with them as a source to match her energy.
Tomato will tolerate being picked up for a short time, does like being pet (to a point), and can be a little chatty when she wants attention but isn't overly whiny or loud. As she's settled in with her foster parents and felt safer, it seems she's living out some high energy kitten time she may not have had an opportunity for earlier.
Dog sociability: Possibly with proper introduction!
Cat sociability: Likely! She has lots of energy and would likely love to have a cat friend!
Kid sociability: Likely! Hasn't met kids, but LOVES to play!
Likes: Wand toys, ear scritches, attention, printers, hunter anything under a sheet
Dislikes: Being held like a baby (but being held like a football is fine), bear slippers, humans holding large objects (i.e. comforter)
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 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!
