Dog sociability: Likely with proper introduction and a chill, cat-friendly pup!
Cat sociability: Likely with proper introduction!
Kid sociability: Likely with proper introduction!
Likes: Belly rubs, cuddling, toys, wet food
Dislikes: People walking quickly toward him, personal space
Bio: Tinker Toy is an affectionate, easy going cat with so much love to give. His favorite thing in the world is sitting down with you and getting pets, especially belly rubs! While he can get nervous, he is easily soothed and comes running when he hears his name. Plus, he loves new friends and warms up to guests within minutes of them walking through the door.
Tinker Toy has a sweet, squeaky meow and likes to chat with his humans. Rumor has it that he also holds the world record for the longest consecutive purr.
True to his name, Tinker Toy loves toys! He is great at solo play and will entertain himself for hours. Springs, crinkly toys, and anything on a string are his personal favorites, but he’s not picky. If all he can find is a shoe with particularly long laces, he’ll make it work.
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 rescue
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!
