Felis catus
Many feral cats at a motel near the Honolulu Airport. They were being fed leftovers from the hotel restaurant.
Urban.
Hi sanmiggums. You're right that domestic cat is also a legitimate common name and I'm just now realizing that I should adjust the scientific name. According to Wikipedia, it should be Felis catus or Felis silvestris catus.
You can also call It domesticated cat
