About Wilbur

Who is looking for a lovable and energetic little boy? Meet Wilbur, an 8-week-old tabby who found his way into our care after being discovered alone. This tiny guy has a mighty spirit, filled with zoomies and spunk. Wilbur is incredibly cute, and he knows just how to use his charm to get your attention. With his playful nature, you might find yourself forgetting he's only plotting to take over your home! He's a little powerhouse of affection, ready to repay your love with endless cuddles and attention. Wilbur thrives in a busy environment, so he'll need cat trees to climb, toys to chase, and interactive games to keep him entertained. It's important to note that Wilbur tested positive for FIV at 8 weeks. However, FIV tests can yield false positives in kittens due to maternal antibodies. We recommend retesting him at around 6 months for a clearer result. FIV positive cats can live healthy lives with proper care, and Wilbur can even coexist with non-FIV cats under the right conditions. Given his current age, we cannot place Wilbur in a home with another cat for now. However, he must have a friendly dog to keep him company. Wilbur will surely bring joy and energy to his future home!
