It all started when Laila D’Souza, a passionate animal rescuer, was about to take a well-deserved break. But then, out of nowhere, she received a message asking for help.
A tiny, four-week-old kitten had been left all alone, struggling to survive. You see, poor Toby didn’t have the best beginning in life. Abandoned and vulnerable, he was left to face the world by himself.
Luckily, a caring person noticed Toby wandering around, shivering in the chilly air. Turns out, a neighbor had left him behind because they didn’t want him anymore.
Concerned for his safety, they immediately contacted Laila, who is known for her kindness and dedication to rescuing animals.
At that moment, Laila knew she couldn’t turn a blind eye to Toby’s plight. When she finally met Toby, he was a shy, skinny little guy with some tummy troubles. But even though he looked fragile, he had a really strong spirit.
However, as soon as Laila scooped him up, his true personality started to shine through.
Toby turned out to be a lively little guy, always exploring and full of curiosity. He loved to meow and purr, and was just eager for attention. As Laila shared in an interview:
“He went from meowing frantically to purring nonstop once he knew he was safe.”
As for Laila, she was like a caring mom to Toby, giving him all the love and attention he needed.
She took special care of his tummy troubles, making sure he ate the right food. Plus, she loved to cuddle and play with him and shower him with affection.
Toby showed his appreciation by purring and snuggling up to her all the time. He was a little clingy, always wanting to be close to Laila.
Sometimes, he would wrap his tiny paws around her leg, as if he was scared she might leave him.
As Toby finally got healthier, his playful side really started to show. He loved to chase after toys, swat at feathers, and pretend to pounce on things.
He was full of energy and always ready to play fetch. Even though he had some challenges, like being underweight, he never gave up. He gobbled up his food, eager to get stronger, and even his fluffy fur began to shine again.
He was always exploring his foster home, zooming around and checking out every corner. And when he wasn’t busy playing, he loved to curl up with Laila, purring happily like a little engine.
One of the cutest things about Toby was how much he craved love. He would follow Laila everywhere, with his tail wagging with joy.
He’d hop onto her lap, kneading her with his tiny paws and purring loudly, as if he was saying, “Please love me!”
However, what really makes Toby special is how he asks for attention. Instead of just meowing, he lets out a big roar. It’s hilarious to see such a small kitten making such a loud noise, and it’s super cute too!
Now, Toby is a joyful and healthy kitten, enjoying a comfy life. He has a cozy bed, lots of toys, and a caring family to look after him. Even though he started off as a little lost kitten, he has blossomed into a confident and loving cat.
