But was he not neutered by the shelter? Indelicate of me, but it looked as though he wasn’t when he got home.

testicles are gone. They may or may not shrink over time. I adopted a male who was 4 yrs old at time of neutering and had the same question for my vet!

looking like he still had all his parts. I asked one of the volunteers about it and she said that the way they neuter them now leaves them looking pretty much the same if they were already full-grown.

This proves me wrong.
What a little sweetheart! So glad he's been adopted!
