About Wilbur

Wilbur comes from Williston Park and has outlasted his two siblings, both already adopted. He spends his days exploring and playing, fitting in bursts of curiosity and a hint of shyness between his more adventurous moments. Sweet and loving, Wilbur doesn’t hold back from showing affection to people, and he’s clearly comfortable with other cats. He’s relaxed around dogs and does well with children. That playful streak is ever-present, so he’d benefit from a home where he can have a companion—kittens this young often do better in pairs, learning good habits from each other and keeping one another entertained instead of getting into trouble. Wilbur is neutered, vaccinated, house trained, and ready to settle in somewhere permanent. Click apply to start the adoption process.
