My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Wonderful Wilbur - The gentle 'rag doll' snuggler who makes world-class biscuits!

This gentle soul is affectionate, goofy and a professional Biscuit Maker

Wonderful Wilbur is currently being fostered alongside the high-energy Zumi Zooma, and he is the perfect "Yin" to her "Yang." While Zumi is busy inspecting every corner, Wilbur provides the calm, grounding presence that makes a house feel like a home.

Though he may take a moment to settle into new situations, once Wilbur feels secure, he is all about the love. He is a professional "rag doll"—when you pick him up, he happily dangles in your arms, soaking up every bit of attention you’re willing to give.

What makes Wilbur so wonderful:
The Lap Magnet: If you’re sitting down, expect Wilbur to find his way to your lap. He is a serious snuggler who lives for human contact.

Gentle Reminders: Wilbur knows what he wants! If the pets stop before he’s ready, he’ll give your hand a gentle little tap to let you know he’s not finished yet.

Expert Baker: He takes his job as a biscuit maker very seriously. You can count on him for plenty of "kneading" whenever he’s feeling cozy.

The Perfect Companion: Wilbur does great with other cats, kids, and even small dogs. We’re already seeing how Zumi’s playful spirit is helping bring out even more of his goofy personality!

Wilbur is an easygoing, gentle boy who just wants a family to call his own. He is looking for a home where he can relax into your arms and be your loyal, affectionate companion. He is already fully vetted, neutered, and microchipped—all he needs now is you!

All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
