Domino the Game-Loving Feline

Maybe if I play this correctly, things will line up perfectly
I do like a little cat nap.
and then fall into place for an adoption soon. Ha ha, it’s me, DOMINO and I love games. I wonder how the Humane Society knew that when they named me? Roaming the lobby and office area, there are splendid opportunities for mischief.
Last week, a visitor came to see our director, Carrie. Carrie likes lots of cat company in her office, so I was lounging on her guest chair but obligingly got up when asked. Then I sat on the table right next to the visitor and let her see me up close and personal. And it was necessary to remind her that I was at her right shoulder by reaching out and batting her softly with my paw every minute or so. It’s just that I like to meet all the new people and choose perches in the lobby, like this one in the window, so I get the best view of cars driving up. Maybe they are coming to meet ME!
As you can see, I was happy to sit for a portrait photo. My black & white fur is quite lovely; it sets off my sparkly green eyes, don’t you think? Of course, I didn’t look or feel this good several months ago. It was tough to be outside in February, wandering around a place called "Sevastopol". Luckily, nice people found me and brought me here where it’s warm and friendly. The staff have figured out that I’m 3-5 years old. Like all the adoptable cats here, I’m neutered, vaccinated and ready for that great new home I keep hearing about. Let’s play games together … I’m so ready!
