Maverick is currently in a foster home and is available to meet through our Virtual Adoption Program!

Meet Maverick, a handsome tabby kitten with an adventurous spirit, an outgoing personality and a name that suits him perfectly. This friendly little guy is affectionate, social and always ready to make a new friend. Whether he is exploring, playing or settling in for some well-earned attention, Maverick approaches every day with confidence and enthusiasm.

Maverick has tested persistently positive for Feline Leukemia Virus, commonly called FeLV, which means he has a progressive infection. FeLV affects a cat’s immune system and may shorten his lifespan, but it does not define Maverick or prevent him from enjoying a happy, loving life. Many FeLV-positive cats enjoy wonderful years filled with playtime, cozy naps and the companionship of people who adore them.

Because FeLV can be transmitted to other cats through close contact, Maverick’s adopter should speak with a veterinarian about the safest household arrangement. He should live indoors, receive veterinary wellness care every 6 to 12 months and be seen promptly if he becomes sick or injured. FeLV affects cats only and cannot be transmitted to people or dogs.

Maverick is not looking for anyone to feel sorry for him. He is looking for someone ready to embrace a cheerful, affectionate little tabby who has plenty of love, laughter and kitten mischief to bring to a home.

Maverick’s future may carry a little more uncertainty than most, but this sweet boy is focused on enjoying today. Come meet Maverick and discover why sometimes the very best companions are the ones who encourage us to love boldly and appreciate every moment.
