You’ve seen the film; you’ve sung along to the soundtrack; you’ve bought the aviator glasses and bomber jacket. Now is your chance to share your home with Maverick!

Mav came to us recently having had a really tough start to his young life. He was found in appalling conditions with lots of other kittens. However, just like his namesake when he arrived at Fighter Weapons School, he is now ready to fly and find his happy ending with a family like yours (unless Kelly McGillis turns up…)

In the cat world, Mav would give Tom Cruise a run for his money: he’s a handsome boy with a short, smooth, sleek, black coat with white paws, nose and chest. At the moment, he’s still quite shy, especially amongst all of the other kittens, but he started to come out of his shell when he was able to spend some time with his wingman, Ice so we think he would be happy to share his new home with just one other pet. Unlike his namesake, Mav is no rebel and, at the moment, is still a little shy but he’s starting to play more and is becoming more used to being handled and petted. We’re seeing a very sweet and mellow side of his character developing and know that, once he finds his feet, Mav will show the loyalty and adventurous spirit of his namesake.

Mav needs to find a calm, quiet home with older children where he can start to build the confidence to bring out his playful side. With love, patience and care, in no time he’ll be zooming around your home as if he’s riding a Kawasaki or an F-14A Tomcat like Tom Cruise, taking your breath away with the antics we expect and love in kittens.

If you can offer Mav a Top Gun life in safe, loving home, don’t hang about – we feel the need…the need for speed!
