Toby Street
Hello, my name is Toby Street. My animal id is #264363. I am a desexed male white cat at the Manhattan Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 15 years old.
I came into the shelter as a stray on 9/3/2026.
Toby needs at risk placement for medical reasons. He is a sweet geriatric boy with Diabetes Mellitus. He is on oral medication to regulate his blood sugar. He needs placement in a home and outpatient management with a local veterinarian to manage his condition long term.

This pet needs emergency placement. Please click here to go to our emergency placement page for more information. Toby needs at risk placement for medical reasons. He is a sweet geriatric boy with Diabetes Mellitus. He is on oral medication to regulate his blood sugar. He needs placement in a home and outpatient management with a local veterinarian to manage his condition long term. A volunteer writes: Toby Street, a fifteen year old underweight gentlecat was found roaming the hallways of an apartment building with another kitty and brought to the Manhattan Care Center. When I first met him in the medical room, he was calm and rather subdued. I was told he was a good patient. Toby Street was diagnosed with DM and is treated with an oral antidiabetic agent. When we met again two days down the line, Toby Street was a bit more "connected" and responded with slow blinks and even head bunting to gentle words and petting. Toby Street is a sweet senior who could benefit from a warm, loving and caring environment (with an outside veterinarian supervision)with an adopter or a foster versed in the treatment of diabetic pets. Toby is hoping to meet you very soon! What my friends at ACC say about me: I can go home today! My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet! It is unknown if I have ever lived with other animals or children. I have medical needs that staff will address with you when you meet me. I am a sweet, social, older gentleman, looking for the perfect forever home! I am a cat that is in need of a lap! I can't wait to be your new lap cat.
