Toby is a DCIN adoptee who flew on a plane from North Carolina to Dallas, Texas in 2012. He immediately flew into our hearts, as well. We think he is around ten years old now. Toby's diabetes is controlled with diet and he does not need insulin. He is a rare polydactyl, with extra toes on all four of his paws. He will use his thumbs to hold your hand and lick you when he wants pets. Toby is afraid of thunderstorms and hides in the clothes hamper when it rains. He loves every kind of food, but especially cheese. Toby loves music and singing, and will headbutt his "mom" when she rehearses her choral pieces. He is the most social of all our cats, and is always the first to greet a guest.
