Unfortunately for the tomcat, it seemed as though his luck had run dry. He was taken to a local shelter. The family wanted to put Toby to sleep.

Fortunately, they had brought him to a shelter and not left him on the street in more unfamiliar territory. What did the shelter do?

Neuter

The shelter estimated that Toby was about 7 years old and decided not to pursue putting him to sleep. Instead what the shelter did was neuter Toby, to calm him down.

The staff originally thought Toby would need a home without other felines to avoid clashes. What was the result?

Adoption

Toby became mellow after his neuter and had no issues being with other cats anymore. He was successfully adopted and lives happily with two other cats.

The now-famous kitty even has his own Instagram page.
