While no cause has yet been diagnosed, the Humane Society said anyone interested in adopting Eggbert should be prepared to provide him medical treatments in the future.

While that can be a hard sell — not every potential adopter wants to take in a different-looking cat with potential medical issues — Eggbert's beautiful smile charmed the internet and his story went viral, being shared over 100 times and picked up by many media outlets.

Despite all the odds against him, it didn't take long for Eggbert to find a home.

In an update from February 26, the FAHS announced that Eggbert had officially been adopted, and shared a photo of the unique cat with his new family.

"His new family has another FAHS alumni kitty at home, so we know Eggy is in the best hands," the shelter wrote.

"He couldn't have found a better home! He is going to be loved and spoiled rotten. Thank you for choosing adoption again."

What a happy ending for this beautiful cat. We're so glad Eggbert has a loving new home who will give him the best of care.
