Toby is a very cute kitty and low-key boy. He likes to hang out with other cats and feels protected by them. 

The Beach gang is a litter that was living under someones deck. It seems that they did have quite a few bad experiences before getting rescued and all are quite timid around people.
With us just placing a cat in an unknown situation quite a few cats get super anxious and decide to hide and observe the new place and family from relative safety. To help the cat accept you and develop a loving bond, you would need to put in some effort, loving care, and patience. We think that Toby will adjust in 6 to 9 weeks. You would need to keep him in one small room (preferably your bedroom) and spend time just sitting, talking or even singing to him.
