Domino's Story

Domino is a misunderstood kitty. People let her down and failed to see her true potental. When she was first brought into the Humane Society, she was deemed "feral" because she wouldn't let anyone come near her. A label of "feral" is not to be taken lightly, but many rescuers use this word without understanding what a truly feral cat is. Domino was scared out of her mind and was scared of the situation. All the new smells, cats, dogs, are extremely stressful to a cat. But, she received the label, so she was put into a barn home. This barn home situation is strange in and of itself because it's located right in the middle of the city. Domino wandered off and befriended some cat-friendly employees at the local Dominos that backed up to this property. It was Janary, we were having bitterly cold temperatures and we had a storm headed our way. One of the employees reached out to Heartland. On first assessment, Domino was not a fan of her foster momma, nor a fan of the other resident cats. She would react to the smell of other cats. It took 2 months before Domino allowed me to consistently pet her without being swatted. Then I started introducing her to other cats, and we soon found that she doesn't mind other cats, as long as they don't get all up in her business. She still isn't a fan of being picked up, and she will need to be adopted to somone who can read cat cues and know when she has had enough. She loves to be where the action is, and she will literally follow you around the house. She loves to rub against your legs and petted on the front part of her body. She loves her kibble, and she has just starting playing with toys! Domino isn't the easiest cat to adopt out; it's taken 5 months to get her to this point, but I'm confident there is a home out there for her. She needs a quiet home, probably without dogs and definitely without small kids. Another cat is fine, if they will keep to themselvess and aren't looking for a constant companion. Otherwise she is happy being by herself and being your center of attention.Domino is spayed, microchipped, negative for FIV/FeLV, and up-to-date on vaccines. She is Heartland ID 14269ki.
